Salaam All,
Since a large number of us is always fighting the battle of the bulge, I thought it would be a good idea to share what motivates you.
For me, its clothes. I love clothes so to look good in them I try to work out.
Re: What Motivates You?

Re: What Motivates You?

Re: What Motivates You?

Tummies are such a pain in the butt!
Re: What Motivates You?
what motivates me? panic! haha :p
the wedding is so close and i'm in full-on "get in shape" mode... not sure how much i'll accomplish in 8 weeks, but hell, i'm going to try! i need to be more toned, essentially. so now i do the gym thing early morning before work, and then try and go running in the evening.
i find pilates is really good for tum and abs... have you guys tried it?
Re: What Motivates You?
hey groovychick , same here wedding in november and i want to get in shape before that too . congrats on ur wedding . i havent even started exercising . damn best start now and cut down on that chocolate . lolz
Re: What Motivates You?
Pilates does it for me too
Re: What Motivates You?
Mizzrani&Muniya: I love my job! I teach the BTS systems and they r totally fantastic and hubz can neva say im out of shape.
Interval training is the best way to burn fat. U can do interval programs on either the treadmill or bike-or do the relevant fitness classes.
SGC: U’ll b in fab shape for ur wedding! U can do sum good toning in 8 weeks-it takes at least 6 weeks to see sum results. The 1st 2 weeks u lose water-but dont despair-watch the fat burn away after 2 weeks. Dont become obsessed with the scales…muscle weighs more than fat…take sum measurements b4-like of ur waist and then measure urself and see the difference.
Pilates is good for lengthening the muscles…but ive known of ppl to get a lot of injuries from it so im a not a huge advocator of it…i prefer Bodybalance but then im obsessed with BTS stuff! Bodybalance is a combination of Tai chi, ashatanga yoga and pilates.
Girls i have to say this tho-exercise only helps 40% of the way-the rest of it is down to ur diet-esp if u wanna lose abdominal fat. I know it totally sucks!
Re: What Motivates You?
yeahhh omg! clotheeess
If i eat too much and can’t fit in to my jeans the next day i seriously need to like fix up my diet FAST!also i need to start drinking loads and loads of water before my skin goes really oily…it gets like that in the summer if i dnt drink enough

Re: What Motivates You?
1-Clothes
2-When me and my sister are competing weight then
3-Once i was on a diet and my dad told me this i love that sentece
"when you are eating icecream or choclate just think how weak is your faith.If you cannot control yourself on food how you are gonna control your faith in difficult situations in life "
Whenever i try to overeat i don't know why but this sentence comes from no where in my mind that how weak i am in controlling myself:(
