I've just started working out again in the last week. It's amazing how many excuses my brain tries to come up with to NOT go, but then how good I feel about myself after I DO go! Now, if the pounds will just start leaving, the world will be a beautiful place....<BR/><BR/>Side note: We had a conversation in the past through your own blog about money as an incentive. I found a website (stickk.com) that does that! Unfortunately, they don't PAY you, but you contract for your goals with a time frame and end goal, and then you have the option to put some money down as a wager. If you meet your goal, you keep your money. If you don't, the money goes to your choice of charity or "anti-charity." As I psychologist, I can tell you that the "anti-charity" route should be the most motivating. For instance, if you would contract for your goal to lose 8 pounds in a month and wager $50, but, if you don't meet your goal, that $50 would go to the Republican party, wouldn't you be pretty motivated???! I personally LOVE the idea!<BR/><BR/>Keep up the great work!PsychMammahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18072554462874623041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2547482929182677931.post-65200376389640279432008-09-16T10:24:00.000-07:002008-09-16T10:24:00.000-07:00Congrats, Amy!
