This morning, I stepped on the scale to find myself at the lowest weight I've been at since maybe a year ago if not longer.

155.0

Sweet! Now, I'm thinking that it's definitely time to get back into exercising. My gym membership is getting dusty and, while my clothes are fitting a little better, I'm still quite jiggly. I hate the jiggle.

Ahk, I'd love to give you pointers, but even in my most exercise-driven days, I can't really say I was motivated by exercise itself. What motivated me was the results, the compliments from said results (because I'm vain like that) and challenging myself to go harder and farther than the previous session/week/month.

I also enjoyed the cuter clothes. What's up with that? You can only have super cute workout clothes if you are a size itty bitty? Bah. Anywho......my point is maybe focus on the results end of it instead of the exercise part of it? So many days, I didn't want to go to the gym....it was cold/rainy/early/annoying....but I did and I got results. When I didn't go, I got less results.

*shrug*

Maybe engaging in sports that you enjoy? That way, you'll have positive movement and enjoy what you are doing, so it feels less like working out and more like recess. I never liked sports, so this mentality really never helped me.
