Default January - One Reason Why I'm Staying on Plan Today-

Happy New Year everyone!

This thread is all about the ONE reason we are going to stay on plan today. Of course there are TONS of excellent reasons to. But we're just wondering what's the ONE thing that's gonna do it for you today. It is meant to motivate us when we start wondering why we're working so hard and thinking "Ummm, why are we doing this again?". Or simply just to reinforce our new lifestyles.

It's a new year - with a new beginning!

(PS. I took the liberty of putting up this post - since it was the one that drew me to this forum last year. Hope that's OK.)

The one reason I am staying with my plan today is because I found a way to make it work in a day with a party included - so, why not!

My husband just asked if that was my knees he heard when I was coming up the steps... they are really that loud! I am only 34! That seems like a motivator for the day.

I am staying on plan today because I deserve to feel good, not sluggish and sick like I have while overindulging for the holidays.

It's a new year, a new start... I can't let myself continue down my current path of gaining the weight back, I worked far too hard for that!

I'm staying on plan today because I've gained back all the weight except 1 pound that I lost during TBL Challenge.

Im staying on plan today because I have a 5k race to run with my daughter in May and I refuse to let her or myself down by giving up. Plus... I dont think my sports bras combined could handle these puppies if I go at it the way I am now!!!! yikes...

Today's my first day so I'm staying on plan because I'm working on learning it and I don't want to learn wrong.

Because I'm sick of seeing and reading features about The Growing Obesity Epidemic and realize that I am definitely one of the problems.
