Increasing the Motivation

Some days are easier than others to get to the gym. Some days I have to drag myself there... Its especially not on my top ten list of favorite things to do when my whole body ACHES. And sometimes my mental incapacity wins me over and I decide to stay in bed awhile longer. Does a body good though...right??

Mantras to keep me going...
When I don't think I have the TIME---Think a 20 minute workout won't get to anything,well it sure as hell is a lot better than a 0 minute workout!

On the days it is difficult to run---I like running...because I really really like dessert :)

Stresses of life getting me down--- Dear stress, Lets break up.

That's not sweat, its my fat cells Crying.

Its a lifestyle to train like there is no finish line

Don't think... just put on your shoes and GO!

Things that help change my Mental block...

Visit Carrotsncake.com-- I found this healthy living blog that I am in love with lately. Tina's voice is awesome. Shes fun, she's real...she tries to live healthy but she lets there be a margin for error... her blog makes me laugh & peaks my interest. Its a Win.

Stocking up on a random assortment of fitness/health magazines--- "Health", "Whole Body & Soul", "Yoga", "Fitness", "Women's Health".... yeah.. they are addicting. I'm going to have to reign that addiction in cuz its getting as expensive as my coffee addiction. uh-oh.

Going with friends. Danielle & I go to the gym together a lot--holds me accountable. I've started going with Tamara too...Dan's friends' Fiance.

MyFitnessPal... YEP there's an App for that! Haha. Its true, I've jumped on that bandwagon. I swear its like a game though to put in every single food I eat. At first, it was crazy... I was annoyed at how many calories were in the food I was eating. But then it was like a challenge to find better stuff that tasted just as good. And its like a math game because I only have an alotted number for every day. Sadly to say... I find it amazing.

Today the motivation to get out of bed and get to the gym............. it's 23 degrees outside. I do not have the heat on in this house and I'm FREEZING. If I don't move soon I'm going to be an icicle.
Hello Gym! :)
Happy Monday hope its a good one!
