Motivation???

[texasbrainsandbeef]

Hey bros, I need a little help. I am having a hell of a time getting motivated to get back into the swing of things. Here is my story. Two years ago I was 25, sitting at 180 lb. at 8% bf. I was lifting 4 times per week and having killer workouts and I was running like 4-5 miles three days per week. Then I started getting shin splints, and then I hurt my back. Since that point, I have gotten completly fat and lazy. I have gotten married and have a family now. And all of that is wonderful, but what is not wonderful is what I look and feel like. I am 250 lb. and 25% bf. I eat like total shit and I feel just misrable about the way I look. I just can't seem to get it going for me again...and I don't know what to do...I have lost that fire I guess.

Can yall maybe help me to get motivated again and get things rockin? I know it is silly for me to be asking such a thing, I don't know what else to do...I just feel lost...I feel like my physical fitness areana is quick sand that I am stuck in and can't break free to make a comeback. Anything will help me yall...anything.

I think you can only do it for yourself. You can't do it for anyone else because that's not motivation.

It sucks to get back into things for the first couple of weeks...until you settle into a new routine. But then as you feel better you're magically motivated. As you see more results you're more motivated.

I wonder if that will be your only serious reply? My own fitness goal is to look hot in a swim suit so that my husband has to keep an eye on me when we're out. And I can't go and get all fat and moo-like either or I'd be demodded. I had to sign a contract to stay sexy.

put a pic of you up when you were in great shape and remember the times you had and felt so good nd crank the best heaviest music you can think of and get pumped. it works for me. good music always gets me motivated

Taking progress pics helps a lot. When I look at my picture from February I throw up a little in my mouth. But now I look more normal again.

The road to a perfect body begins one step at a time.


When will you take that first step is the question.
