Need Motivation?

I do. Always. Usually I can motivate myself, but at the same time, I can motivate myself out of something too. I have been off to a good start with my new exercise regiment only to be thrown off by the weather, and when that happens I tend to talk myself out of a workout at home. I know that is where my biggest struggle is right now...it's getting motivated to work out.

Today is Wednesday, and this is usually "my day" to work out with Karate and the Kettle bells. I am just loving Kettle Bells by the way...Oh My new favorite thing to do!

It's just the Mon, Tue, Thur, Fri, Sat & Sun I have to work on now. I know that it's important to work out every day! Now workout means doing a physical activity for at least 30 minutes. I'm not talking about running a marathon each day. I was reading my friend, Robin's blog and I have to tell you that I am so proud of her & totally inspired by her and all that she has accomplished with losing weight and getting into shape. And each and every day I sit across from my co-host and I have to tell you that I have seen the weight loss/muscle gain transformation happen right before my eyes! So why am I still stuck where I'm at? Why am I not motivated enough to lose these 30 - 40 pounds?



So do I need motivation? You bet! Can I do this? You bet! Will I? Well now that is the question. I want to say, "You Bet!", but I need to keep my motivation. So do I come up with a game plan? I have tried that already...I always seem to fall short (except on Wednesdays) so maybe just maybe what I need is an accountability partner.

Man am I...

sore! I have to say that this new journey with Mike and P90X is good, but man...I did not realize just how out of shape I really was...well am. I must say that I have been very impressed with each routine so far and I know that I like the fact that each day is a new routine...so Mike or I won't get board. AND I have watched the infomercial for P90X. I have to say that I am impressed with the testimonials that I heard. I of course found P90X on Facebook...well because it's Facebook...and I wanted to see other testimonies. My goal is to be a good example for my children, and to get more fit. Not only w/ the P90X, but also with karate, walking and of course...when I can...the gym. The best thing about this so far...Mike & I are doing this together. That truly makes me happy! OK...so day 4 down only 26 days to goal #1. One day at a time...one pound at a time...that is my battle cry!

Oh...and I know I need to take the pictures...and I will...but I don't think I'll post them until day 30.
