Pray!

Whatever you need to do, whether it would be eating less, exercising more, getting back on track or getting motivated praying works! God is always there when you are weak. He is your support even when no one else is around, you can't get on the computer, you have no time to call a friend, etc.

MORE INFORMATION:
Lean on God for your strength!

Have a Mantra

If I'm having a hard time getting motivated or if I find myself inclined to stop exercising a couple minutes into my workout, I chant my mantra (quietly to myself). I have two I like to use: "Fit not fat" and "6 not 16" (in reference to what size I am and where I want to be). It hasn't failed to keep me going yet!

Doing it for Me

I had to realize that I am doing this for me, and my health. Not for my husband or kids. I can't just sit and wait until my husband gets motivated, I have to do this now! I have to be accountable to me.
