i recently started my 1st love:ballet and jazz dance basics..
so why is it so tuff to get motivated these days?

Same thing here. I bought a stability ball, and I love it! So why is it sitting in my bedroom collecting dust?! I have a treadmill, same story. My dh will get up early with the kids so I can walk before he goes to work - so why do I sooo easily skip it?! I think I need an accoutability person to check up on me daily!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do think I'd behave then? lol Welcome - this is a great place to start with lots of friendly ladies!

Hi & Welcome!


You know we hear it so often 'how do I motivate myself?'- we all know the rewards of working out and eating right...so why is it that it's so hard? If there was an answer, believe me, we'd post it :-)


For me it can be something as simple as looking good in that top....not necessarily seeing numbers on the scale.


The ladies here are fantastic at encouraging each other, and we're all doing our own things- no one diet/workout going on. One of the reasons I love it here ;-)


We have a challenge starting on Monday (so long as I get my act together and get it together lol)- so check back and see if you'd like to join us......

Welcome to the board! I think motivation is always a huge hurdle to overcome. It's crazy how something that makes us feel so great can be so hard to motivate ourselves to do! I do find that coming to the board here helps, even if it's just to talk about fitness and diet related things and help to keep my focus on those issues!! The women here are great at keepign each other on task!

Hey joey, I just noticed that you are a musician - I have to say I really admire people who can get up on stage to perform! (regardless of saggy butts - I don't think I could do it if my butt and boobs were perky as all get out!)

2 birds -one stone..
