Working out is my outlet for stress. It's me time. When I don't have to worry about bills,the house,the kids,my husband or my biz. I only need to worry about me and I look forward to that.
Plus all the ladies here keep me motivated. I see all of ya'll progress and it lets me know that I can do this.

The external motivztions are good - such as pictures, quotes, etc. But eventually, it has to come from WITHIN YOU. YOU have to want it, YOU have to make the daily choice and sacrifice, YOU have to have the drive.
No picture can make you reach your goals. YOU have to make a daily reaffirmation that you are going to do it - come hell or high water. No picture can make plain chicken taste like a dream. YOU have to make the choice and stick with it.
Eventually, it comes doen to mind over matter - and you have to want it.

So true. At first it was more of me wanting to lose some weight and tone up. It went from there to me wanting to be overall healthier. Then it went to me wanting to lose bf and gain some muscle. Now it's me wanting to lose bf,stay healthy,gain muscle and oh I love the feeling of how my biceps feel now. when they were soft to the touch when not flexing now they are hard and that's a wonderful addicting feeling.

reading this thread is giving me motivation!
I've tried setting goals, but I'm absolutely horrible with them... mainly because I don't know the amount of time it should take to achieve them. I'm going to buy a new journal today. Sunday will be a start to a brand new week and I'm just going to ignore my doubts and go for it. I'm excited now!

Don't doubt yourself it just takes time. When it comes to fitness your journey will never end.
Rome wasn't built in a day,neither is muscle!!!!

Brownies are pretty damn worth itNot everyday of course but occasionly, they are my favorite by the way. lol
What motivates me? Hmm honestly I do. I set a goal for myself and don't give up until I get there. Right now my goal is to put on muscle, and am excited every training day, cause I want to see how much more weight I can lift. My weights keep going up, and it's pretty damn cool to see the dudes faces in the gym, when they see me reaching for the 25lb DB to bicep curl. Or when the guy (the only 1 I talk to in the gym) says you should hear how impressed the guys in here are with you, your so tiny and you're not afraid of the weight, and your form is always perfect.
I'm not a pink db kinda girl, gimme that hard grey plate babyyy!!!
