When I Started:
Apr, 2009
How I Started:
I have always liked to run and lifting has been fun for me, but I don't really have any idea of what I am doing. I made the decision that this was the year that I would make those changes.
Why I Love It:
I love the definition you get when you are lifting weights. Maybe it is vanity but when you are working out and people notice the effort behind it, it inspires me to continue to work harder.
How I Stay Motivated:
Jeans. I have gotten rid of any of my jeans that have give in them so that if I let my exercise or diet slip I notice when I put on my jeans. I have bad days, I can have bad weeks, but if I can't fit into my jeans or they don't feel the same, I know that I need to get back in line.
BB Accomplishments:
I don't have any yet, but I am hoping to change that.

What tips would you give to others to help them stay motivated over the long-term?
Get rid of all of your comfort clothes. I know that if I have slacked off and I put on a pair of jeans with a little give I think, hm well it is okay that I have these on and since they are loose that I can sit around and be comfy and oh that bag of chips is calling.
I keep clothes that fit and aren't loose. They are my actual daily reminder of the work that I am doing and need to do. It is an investment in myself and to be honest, nothing feels better than having a pair of jeans that really fit you well. Skinny jeans. Keep those skinny jeans as motivation.Get rid of all of your comfort clothes.

The last two weeks feel like a complete setback at this point. I really wanted to be able to continue my fitness goal, but there feels like there are so many obstacles that are getting in my way. Obstacles that I am unknowingly putting there myself.
Okay girl - if we're workout buddies, you need eventually get back on here:) Sorry - I can't make the birthday bash this weekend, but we'll have to plan something later to get the little rugrats together. Take care!
