Group: I am overweight or obese

We're unstoppable

I'm starting this thread so each of us can post something every once in a while that is positive. Just a little thought about how we're worth our efforts, we have what it takes to reach our goals etc. I want to be able to jump into this thread on days when the clock tells me I have 5 minutes of work left, but I still haven't convinced myself that I'm ready to go to the gym. A little thread of inspiration. *** NOTHING NEGATIVE IS ALLOWED HERE ***

Each time we shrug off that "I don't want to workout today" thoughts we are one day closer to attaining our goals and looking into a mirror that shines back with our smiles and our new found self-esteem knowing we are healthy, happy and ready to rock the world!! -------------- Veda MISERY IS OPTIONAL ***When you are up to your ears in trouble, try using the part that is not submerged. ***The difference between a dream and a goal is a plan.

I'd like to challenge everyone to spend some of their time today, while exercising, to give some thought to why you deserve to be healthy, happy and fit. If you want to, post your thoughts here to share with everyone.
