How to Lose Weight With NO Effort At All.
OH SNAP! Did you really click over here and think you were going to find a real answer to that one?
The clue phone is ringing folks and it's time to pick it up. Do you think this dude just woke up looking like that? HELL NO. Getting your body that conditioned takes TIME and EFFORT and DEDICATION and STRATEGY. IT REQUIRES A PLAN, AND STICKING TO IT.
This game of getting more fit is one that doesn't end. It's one that isn't ever going to be "easy". You can't take a pill and make it happen. You can't buy a $15 gadget on an infomercial one night and instantly have rock hard abs in a week, while you eat Ho-Ho's and drink a case of beer every night.
You have to make the effort. It's an EFFORT. Well worth it, but it's work.
It's work to not eat out and order the super-size option at the drive through every day. It's work to say no to the chips/dip and brownies and cookies for some Jag's birthday at the office. It's work to get up at 5am so you can workout before work, and it's just as much work to NOT sit on your butt watching American Idol and instead go get in a workout after work.
GET OVER IT. It's a choice. Decide what you want and then DO THE WORK.
It took me two years of a lot of drama and whining about this and that and not really finding my plan and sticking to it......all that said guess what, each week, each day-- as much as I LOVE working out and I ENJOY healthy food, it's an effort for me to stay on my PLAN. But what is the alternative? I don't want that. I don't want another year of feeling like my jeans are too tight to strut in them. OH NO.
I have a meeting to get to. Then I'm coming back, because I was up until 1am working last night (NAUGHTY KELLY!!!) and slept in until 8am-- which then made Kelly even naughtier because she didn't workout this morning. I'll be gosh-darned if I won't do my workout this afternoon.
Guess what? I like what I see more EVERY DAY in the mirror. The effort is paying off. And it makes me want to work that much harder tomorrow. And I will.
Here's my ramble-on-a-thon from actually- the end of last week. Whatevs. Enjoy it. And go out and make PROGRESS today, not EXCUSES.
Just do it.
That's RIGHT.
Go get you some.

Loving the VSX bras. Can't wait for your review. Also, where did you get the black tank? Love the look!!
It IS a choice! As is everything in life from our attitude to our thoughts.
03:54 “It’s a lot of work to be attractive.”
Kelly, I’m sorry, but I have to disagree with you. Well, that statement may be true for many people, but certainly NOT for you, the Epitome of Attractiveness.
Martin, I feel like I should pay you for the ego boost you give me each day. ;-)
Kerri- PREACH IT!! ;-)
Lori, that tank is just a Victoria's Secret Ribbed Tank top! ;-)
Getting paid for saying/writing what I see and/or think? Mmm, that would be a paradise.
We'll said!! And love that quote so true!
Thanks for the motivation, I seriously needed to read the article. Of course it takes effort to get what you want because without effort their is no sense of accomplishment and fullfillment. I get up at 5 am 5 days a week becasue I want to be better for myself and my family. Thanks so much :)
;-) Hey Twins!
Larisa! you are awesome. 5am, that time HURTS me haha
The Jordan Retro Shoes are dedicated to Cheap Jordan Shoes, the man that changed the game and the shoes that bear his name. Not everyone remembers this little bit of information but back in the early 1980's air max shoes was a company that was struggling just to get by each
year. not only was UGG Bootsthe most popular NBA basketball player in the world but he also had his own shoe which not only was very popular but it was a very sturdy The Jordan Retro 11 Shoes that was built to last.
I needed to hear this. I'm in the whining about gaining weight but eating whatever mode. You look amazing honey - what are you eating these days because I'll have what you're having! ;-) XOXOXO
