Re: Does anyone else HATE exercise as much as me??

Someone on the board, can't remember who, has a quote in their signature line that I just LOVE!

"Dieting makes you look good in clothes....... Exercise makes you look good naked!"

How true and what a great motivator!

There are days I have to push myself to workout, but oh the feeling when you're done! It's amazing.... even though you're sweaty and stinky and could make a skunk pass out! hehe

I juat wish I could have such a PMA

Okay, I give up, what's a PMA?? Sorry, but I *am* blonde...

AJ, no, I don't like diapers .. my "baby" is gonna be 21 and those days are (thankfully) long gone!!!

Man, I must be loony .. I LOVE TO EXERCISE!! I get absolutely CRANKY when my running days are interrupted!

I hate work, cuz it takes up too much running time!!

PMA...Positive Mental Attitude maybe? You definitely have one of those! lol

I pray that I get to be like you someday and absolutely crave exercise. I'm already starting to really like veggies, which I never did before, so I have high hopes for exercise too.

xo,

AJ, believe me, when I started exercising (the day I started Atkins in 2002), I thought "I give it 2 weeks before I quit..." Never in my life had I ever stuck to exercise much beyond a month ... BUT...

When I saw how my weight loss sped up, when I realized how much more positive of a person I was, when I could actually "see" this nearly 50 year old body transforming itself ... WELL ...

How could I ever quit? Especially now, after coming so far ... I think I'm almost AFRAID to ever quit ... I might look 50!!!

Truthfully, I do love to run. I have found that running satisfies the 'competitor' in me. Not that I am fast or that you'll ever see me win a marathon ... but I compete with myself .. pushing harder and setting bigger goals. Its an amazing thing to keep track of how far you can really go if you commit to it.

I truly believe the committing is the hardest part. But the rewards are the payback!!

If this reformed couch potato can do it, SO CAN YOU!

PMA...Positive Mental Attitude

the only other bulletin board I sometimes subscribe to is my soccer team board and they use this phrase all the time - believe me with our team you need loads of PMA!
