Sometimes a little motivation is needed to continue on.  Some days are harder than others.  Mark this down, pin it or print it out if you need to and read it whenever you feel like you need a little kick in the pants…

What you have decided to start is very hard. Change is never easy. Choosing a healthy lifestyle is just as much mental as it is physical. You have to make a choice every day to keep going.  You won’t see results for a few weeks, but you’ll start to feel stronger. It takes 6 weeks to see real results and 12 weeks before most people will notice the change on the outside that you have been feeling on the inside.  You didn’t gain the weight in a week and you won’t lose it all in a week either. It takes time and commitment!  Don’t let being sore stop you, use the soreness as motivation to keep pushing yourself! Make every jumping jack and every burpee count, don’t waste your time only giving half an effort. You’ll have good days and you’ll have bad days, but making the choice to keep going is what makes the difference!
