I Can't Stand It Anymore!!!!!

I know I'm the newbie here, but I just wanted to say that I know what you mean as far as motivation. I've been having issues with staying motivated lately. I keep blaming winter, lol. I've noticed that I do the best when I just get it in my head one day and am all gung ho with it. If I'm forcing myself to diet and exercise, but don't really have that strong drive, I find that I quit really quick. So in the meantime, I at least try to make sure I'm exercising at least until I get to that point that I'm really wanting it, ya know?

And you have to find what works for you. I know my husband is big into the gym and weights. My mum is way into the rec center and the cardio machines. Those just don't work for me. I mean, I don't mind doing them on occassion, but it's not something that really gets me going. I actually like the home workout tapes. So I would just mess around with different things and find something that holds your interest

I don't have winter as an excuse. We don't have much winter here. I love the snow pics that people post because we just don't get snow here hardly ever. This morning when I put on my jeans, I realized that I have to do something. I am not going to buy bigger ones!!!!

Today is the day!!! I'm starting the plan that I know works for me!!!!

Thank you all for your comments and encouragement!! Will keep you posted. I'm headed for the scale. Haven't weighed in months. Have been afraid to.
