Beautiful Inside~
I learned the hard way when I joined a gym with friends. I thought that I could use them to help motivate me into going... turned into the opposite! In the end, we hardly went at all and fed off each other's bad habits of not going!
I tried two to three different buddies. In the end I have realized that I need to find it within myself to be motivated.
Things that motivate me:
1. This may not apply, but my biggest motivator is that I am getting married in October and I would like to have put a dent in my weight loss. I keep thinking about how most people (relatives who have not seen me since I was in high school) have not seen me this fat and how I would love to feel pretty and good about myself in my dress. Do you have some sort of event that you are working towards? A trip or anything?
2. Good music! Make a mix cd of music that really gets you excited. I have found once I get myself on that dreaded treadmill if the music is pumping it keeps me motivated and time flies!
3. Don't say I will excercise at some point today. Establish a routine! I find that if I firmly have a set time in my head when I am going to work out I will do it. If I just think to myself, oh I will workout some time tomorrow I don't quite get my lazy *** going.
I too hope to lose 30 lbs by June
So it looks like we are on the same track
Good luck!
