Jana’s Thrive Diet Body Design Challenge

Inspired2act has inspired me to act! Well, act again anyways. Throughout my 10 sad, sedentary years, I have gotten inspired to turn off my computer and get off of my scrawny ass to get in shape on a handful of occasions. 4 or 5 to be exact. Mostly I would start and then stop before I even made any real progress, or I wouldn’t go at it consistently enough to change. Working out became a “special occasion”, followed by a renewed enthusiasm to do it again because of how great it felt, and then…. you guessed it… nothing! Only one time I succeeded in maintaining it consistently for a long enough period to start seeing some results and feeling a lot stronger, but I have never reached my goal. I was working out 3-4x a week for a couple months and it was exciting to see myself getting stronger, from not being able to do one unassisted chin-up, to easily doing 5 reps of them in a row per set. As usual though, a big change in life got in the way again and derailed my routine and momentum, throwing me right back to where I started. I’ve had a few false starts since then where I almost got to the top of the hill where it would of started getting easier, but of course gave up just before then. Sound like anyone you know? : )

I can completely relate to this article. I need to sit at the computer a lot for work and more work once I get home, sometimes it seems you want to get up and exercise but feel no motivation. Recently I have promised myself to go for it and do it as well, sometimes you just have to force yourself. It should be fun to see and watch the progress you make, I will be right behind you.
