MOTIVATE ME

It's very hard to stay on a diet on the weekends I find. Since weekends usually involve one night of drinking for me- I can never stick to a diet when I drink (after bar food anyone?)... it's so bad!! But, you are right- you can't let one day get you down... in the long run a few bad days in with many many good days aren't going to matter so much.. just remember WHY you are doing this and remember what you want the final outcome to be! Think of those JEANS!!

Have a good day today!!

leahvictoria's right - a few bad days here and there won't hurt, you just can't let them become habit. Eating healthier is a lifestyle change, one that won't happen overnight, but will come from a series of better eating choices. As for motivation, we can only do so much in terms of supporting/cheering you on, but the drive has to come from you. It sounds like you've an outfit picked out for new year's eve already - visualize these scenarios in your head - the first is where you put on your outfit and it doesn't fit, and you have to wear something old and frumpy - how will you feel then? The second is where you put it on and it fits like a glove, and you look smokin' hot to ring out old year. Which would you rather?

Hard though it is, you need to keep your eyes on the prize.

THIS is exactly why i joined this forum in the first place.
I feel back on track already. thanks guys

and apparently i'm lookin good since two guys gave me their numbers last night
THat was a self esteem boost furr shurrr

Remember that next time the pizza, soda and candy are calling your name

Hey there!

I've been reading your posts and it looks like you are well in your way to a healthier you! Keep up the good work! I'm also in the "I hate cardio boat" due to my bad asthma, but I've managed to find a way to get around it. Cold air sets off my asthma and because I live in a cold climate so I find it really hard to exercise outside. I have a home gym and I bought myself an exercycle which has been great in adding cardio to my weight training. So I'd highly recommend getting an exercycle (or a treadmill for that matter).

Diet is also a contributing factor to asthma, so hopefully your diet will change the more you exercise and you should see fewer asthma symptoms. Feel free to PM me if you need support with your asthma, I know how demoralizing it can be when your mind wants to exercise but your body (or your lungs in this case) makes it as difficult as possible.

I noticed your workout routines revolve around abs and arms. I think you should incorporate other moves-squats, RDLs, db pressing, db rowing. For cardio-give a go at this once a week-http://www.t-nation.com/findArticle.do?article=274bear2

Also, if you're really interested in incorporating fat loss into workouts-throw in some db swings and sprints and fullbody circuits with a short rest interval.

Thanks!! Those are good tips definitely.
I'm gonna look into getting some home exercise equipment.

welcome to the asthma train. we suffer together

thanks for the tips.
ive been putting off leg workouts lately. i need to get back into it

and it took the best of me today...

gah!!

Hope you are ok!
