"I want to lose bodyfat and define my abs - 15% bodyfat by July 31st!"

Personal Info And Background:
Real Name: Karina
Sex: Female
Age: 24
Location: Canada
Occupation:
Personal Website: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread .php?t=4051333
Gym:
Gym Location: Edmonton
When I Started: Jul, 2007
How I Started: I got tired of feeling unhappy with my body (and health) and decided to make some major changes.
I ran a marathon this past summer, and even with hours of cardio every week, was unable to lose the fat. Since I've started lifting regularly, I've seen WAY more progress than I ever did. I'm motivated and determined to get the body I want, and I will!
Why I Love It: The sense of accomplishment it gives me. Getting stronger.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20
...Or don't you know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.
How I Stay Motivated: Seeing results & my boyfriend's support for me to live a healthy lifestyle; this website and all the great people here!
BB Accomplishments: None
Forum Signature: When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps.

What do you do before your workout to get motivated and energized?
Having a "no excuses" approach has really helped me. Getting in the habit of doing something no matter what, and making it into a 'habit' is key. It doesn't matter if I don't feel like working out, ...more
