Daily Motivation - Featherweight Style
 

Because it's that much harder to motivate as a featherweight.
Thought it might be useful to have a daily check-in thread for motivation, rather than just the numbers on the scale. Let's remember the WHY, instead of just the HOW or WHAT.


Today I will stick to my plan so that...

1/1 - I can stop wondering if weight is the reason (fill in blank)
1/2 - I'm not controlled by food thoughts.
1/3 - I can make my goal way before October.
1/4 - My self-control will be stronger than the cravings.
1/5 - I am more motivated to make other changes in my life.
1/6 - My thighs will swim in my jeans.

:comp: 1/6/12 I will stick to plan because I want to look great for my brother's wedding.
:comp: 1/7/12 I will stick to plan because I want to be able to maintain good health the rest of my life.
:comp: 1/8/12 i will stick to plan so I can avoid bad knees
:comp: 1/11/12 i will stick to plan so I can wear those express dress pants:
:comp: 1/17/12 i will stick to plan so i can inspire my husband to also look after his health.
:comp: 3/8/12 I will stick to plan so i walk up steps without getting so winded.

I will stick to the plan because I don't like the alternative...because I want to be healthy...because I want to feel good about myself.

I will stick to plan so I can grow fitter and stronger (and hotter!) :D
I will stick to plan so that all my hard work - exercise, good nutrition and body shape - will have been worth it. I can't imagine anything worse than taking a backward slide to where I started. That's the thing that keeps me going, after all the hard slog, I don't want to throw it all away.

3/8 I'll be the healthiest me possible when I start trying to get pregnant.

Glad someone resurrected this thread!

Love this Alexis - I am struggling so hard the past few weeks to stay motivated.

I want to run half a marathon before 2012 is up
I want to feel in control of what I put in my mouth and why I put it there
Looking slim and athletic this summer for the first time ever

3/12 - So I can be proud of my body and the choices that got me there.
3/11 - So I have proof of my discipline.
3/10 - Living well (and looking good) is the best revenge...
3/9 - So I can give myself the best birthday present ever.
