Firstly let me say: I am no fitness freak. I am just a regular mom who exercises. I´ve made it part of my daily routine, a habit. I do it for me. And even though I love how exercise makes me feel afterwards (because, endorphins), it sometimes takes a lot of self-motivation to get myself moving (because, deep inside, I’m still a lazy person, lol). So I totally understand how hard can be to gather the motivation to work out at all. First of all, don’t do it for anybody else. Do it for YOU. Do it, because you deserve to feel and look good. Start out with baby steps and work your way towards bigger goals. Focus on how you are feeling instead the body shape changes that take longer. If you are consistently exercising (at least 2-3 times a week) in approximately a month more or less you may be feeling more energized, less stressed, sleeping better, and building confidence in your training skills. These benefits can help you stay motivated to make it to the four to six month time frame where you should see more of the physical changes and health improvements you desired.
