I need help! I have gone several months now without losing any weight. I haven't gained any, so that is a plus, but I am still quite a few pounds away from where I would like to be. I am in the midst of a full motivation meltdown and I need your help.
It all started with Cardio Barre. As you all know, I am a major barre addict. I finally found something that I enjoy doing, that makes me feel great, and kicks my butt. However, Cardio Barre is expensive and once all my Groupon deals ran out I haven't been able to afford to go as often as I would like. And that made me a little depressed. As in, I really felt like I was going through barre withdrawals. And then I stopped going almost completely. And then all those muscles that were getting lean and toned all too quickly started going back to flab. And that made me want to eat donuts and French fries and drink lots of caffeine instead of my wonderful water that I love. It's amazing how quick and easy it is to fall into all the old bad habits.
So here is what I'm going to do. First of all, I'm going to dust off, once again, my big old mug and start my water habit. I'm going to start with a small, doable goal of working out twice a week...even if it's not my beloved Cardio Barre. After I break in those habits, I'm really going to knuckle down on the diet part.
So this is what I need from YOU. Motivation! That includes any personal triumphs, things that have worked for you to stay on track, favorite recipes or workouts, words of encouragement, or just a good old fashioned kick in the butt. Let's do this together! (oh wow, that was nerdy)
P.S. I have recently purchased a fitness hula hoop (with instructional DVD!). I have not tried it yet, but already I can see it inspiring an interesting, if not hilarious blog post. Stay tuned...
