So how do you stay motivated when you're not seeing any results?
What's going to keep you going to the gym or doing that workout video or waking up early to run everyday?
I ask the question because that's the situation I find myself in right now. My weight is fluctuating between 165lbs - 169lbs which is down from my high of 172lbs, but nowhere near the 140lbs I'm trying to get back too.
It's beyond frustrating.
I know that my body is prone to weight gain and not so much weight loss. I also know that I gain muscle easily as well so that's a bit of consolation. So except for the occassional experience with back fat (that's gone now by the way) I'm not saggy or flabby and I still have a small waist and relatively flat stomach.
But still..
I'm tired of being fat.
And all the running and walking and jumping doesn't seem to be doing the trick.
Sigh.
It can be tough.
Ultimately I don't have any major words of wisdom, but to keep going to the gym, doing those videos and waking up and running. I think you have to be very methodical about it. Tracking your weight, being congzinant of what you eat and making the necessary changes if what you're currently doing isn't working. Basically you just keep pluggin away because the alternative isn't an option.
