Thanks for the encouragement, every bit helps. I don't have a lot of steps, but I love to walk as well. I will do some walking.... I did write the quote in my book, it was so inspiring. Thanks again!!!!

Hi...I know what you mean about being motivated...Congrats on the five pound loss...Good for you, Girl !
I tend to go in spurts with exercise.
My thing is walking...but I need a destination or I won't do it.

I live in a six floor apartment building and most evenings...and sometimes mornings as well I (power) walk the steps and halls.

I like what you said about the desire to change. When I see a quote that inspires me I put it on an index card and place it near my computer....I will do the same with your quote.....thank you.

Hang in there...You are not alone...and ...You can do this!

Here's what I do. I put some headphones on to my favorite song and just start walking! I like the music so much I forget that I'm even moving. Anni

I have tried this more than once, but I will now try again. I have been back to SP a little over 3 weeks and have lost 5lbs so far. My motivation to exercise sucks. I will try this 10-minute deal and maybe, just maybe I can get back on track. So I am reaching out for this thing called motivation. I was reading today in the motivational section and came across this: "your desire to change must be greater than your desire to stay the same". So I thought about it for most of the day, and made the conscious decision to CHANGE. Pray for me, and with me and I will do the same for you, this is very challenging and it means so much to everyone that is willing to take steps to change.
