I lost 30 lbs over the last 6 months. I did it because my Dr. told me to - as I was unhealthy and going to die early. The answer is JUST DO IT. I had blisters - kept lifting - leg cramps, strained hamstring - kept biking and walking. I also went with a salad almost every night and really cut down on red meat. I can not wait to be able to walk around with no shirt on this summer - thats what I keep in mind when I really want to quit halfway through the work out. Make it THE PRIORITY it should be. Above all don't give up - I was sick for 3 weeks and couldn't workout, it was HARD getting back into it, but I did it. A goal is great thing - mine was 150 lbs by Christmas, I set that in August at 185 lbs and am now around 153. SET A GOAL and figure out how to make it happen then JUST DO IT.
hope this helps and good luck to you.

Unfortunately, the best motivation comes when you get sick. The trick is to start before that happens. If you start easy it is easier to start. then, like you say, you are in the middle and no problem. If you lay off for more than two days, it is even harder to start. You clearly know all the benefits in looks, the way you feel, etc. Those things are motivators. For some, setting a definite time helps.

Getting started can be the hardest part. Start really slowly...try 5 minutes a day for the first week, then as it becomes more a part of your daily routine, it will be easier to work up to a ltttle more time.

When you find that motivation thing, let me know where, cause i am looking everywhere for it, and can't seem to find it.
