Just for fun, what are some good songs for our weight loss journey? Please feel free to post a link or a title to one that you like or would be appropriate.

Here are a few we've mentioned lately:



John Mayer -- Your body is a(t) Onederland

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5EnGwXV_Pg&feature=kp


Feeling Hot Hot Hot (either due to sexiness or hot flashes! LOL)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYITD8TMvcM



This Girl is on Fire (as we slay those dragons of food cravings and rock this thing!)

More of an inspirational song, but I have fallen in love with "Overcomer" by Mandisa. Sorry I don't have a YouTube link handy! I love some of the words "don't quit, don't give in, you're an overcomer..."

Since we're rockin' this plan -- especially when we go out on the town-- the Stray Cats can remind you to

"Rock this (plan), Rock it inside out!"

GraceRev -- this is not an IP song but one I've been singing all week that I wanted to share with you just 'cause it's so beautiful. 10,000 Reasons by Matt Redman.

Love, love, love this song! For me, a lot of this IP journey is getting back in touch with treating my body like a God-loving temple and not a garbage bin!

Well evemomma, I guess it IS kinda an IP song as we are all finding our 10,000 reasons -- or even just one -- on why we need to lose weight too (whatever form of inspiration that takes: kids, health >>> body, mind and spirit are all connected)

I find "Right Now" by Van Halen really motivating!

Great song! I was watching the video and the one line jumped out "Nothing is more expensive than regret"... puts the cost of getting healthy into good perspective!

India Arie's life is a journey

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDFlkxVijlk

I love the lyrics:

Life is a journey,
Not a destination,
There are no mistakes,
Just chances weve taken
Lay down your regrets cause all we have is now

Wake up in the morning
And get out of bed
Start making a mental list in my head
Of all of the things that I am grateful for

Early in the morning
Its the dawn of a new day
New hopes new dreams new ways
I open up my eyes and
I open up my mind and
I wonder how life will surprise me today
Early in the morning
Its the dawn of a new day
New hopes new dreams new ways
I open up my heart and
Im gon do my part and
Make this a positively beautiful day

La la la la la la la la la (x3)
Its a Beautiful Day (x3

Fantastic song! When I wake up tomorrow I'm putting that on first thing
Edit: 7:44 am the next day and I'm singin' away! Thanks McKaren -- I didn't know this song and now I have a new favourite

You are welcome!
This was the cool down song for a zumba class I used to take and I
have loved it ever since!

Friday nite I saw Doobie Brothers and Boston in concert.
Boston actually has lots of good, positive motivational songs but Don't Look Back
really struck me.

"Don't Look Back"

Don't look back
A new day is breakin'
It's been too long since I felt this way
I don't mind where I get taken
The road is callin'
Today is the day

I can see
It took so long to realize
I'm much too strong
Not to comprimise
Now I see what I am is holding me down
I'll turn it around

I finally see the dawn arrivin'
I see beyond the road I'm drivin'
Far away and left behind

It's a new horizon and I'm awakin' now
Oh I see myself in a brand new way
The sun is shinin'
the clouds are breakin'
'Cause I can't lose now, there's no game to play

I can tell
There's no more time left to criticize
I've seen what I could not recognize
Everything in my life was leading me on
but I can be strong

I finally see the dawn arrivin'
I see beyond the road I'm drivin'
Far away and left behind
