project get skinny

help me get back in shape by checking out my Daily Fitness tab, i'm really excited to write about each day and how its going. here's a bit i wrote last night about what is motivating me to keep this up. i haven't done much yet for day 3 but i have plans for later, i just have to let my joints recover!! maybe a home work out is a good idea. 


check out my tab to see how its going and what i'm up to :]

Motivation 
putting pictures of idols or pictures of Victoria Secret models on my computer background was my first attempt at motivation ... did it work.. NO! but every time i come across a picture of me before my weight gain i get sad and wish more than anything to lose a few pounds and that's when i get my butt up and over to the gym. so now my background is a collage of me. 

back then i was always running around with friends, i had cheerleading through high school and college, i taught gymnastics and cheer so i didn't have to watch what i ate, so once i moved down to Texas to live with my husband i didn't have any of that anymore and didn't realize i had to keep being active and choose better eating habits. that year i gained 30 pounds and now i don't even recognize myself in the mirror. i don't think im obese, i'm not technically over weight but i'm very uncomfortable i get winded going up the stairs and all my joints are starting to give out like i'm 90 years old. this needs to change. and here i am publicly announcing that from this day forward i vow to keep daily updates on my progress I WILL GET IN SHAPE. i'm going to even post a very embarrassing photo of me here to show (hopefully) my transformation into a healthier body, better now than when its to late. 

whats your motivation?? what do you do to keep your self focused on a goal??
