Hi everyone,
Why do you, personally, workout? Are you after the perfect body? For health reasons? To alleviate stress? Because you love the activity itself and are driven to do it? Some other reason?
Personally I began working out to reduce my weight and become healthy. Somewhere along the way I upped the ante and started wanting the "perfect" body. I was successful with losing the weight and gaining my health; the quest for the perfect body is becoming frustrating and demoralizing. I no longer want to pursue this mythical thing; I want to accept myself as I am. So, I need to focus my workouts around something else. Hang the 10 pounds that have creeped back on in the past year; I want to stop worrying about them. Any suggestions? What motivates you? And are you able to accept yourself, "warts" and all?
Take care,
Sandra
