How do I make myself keep it up?

Make notes on your bathroom mirror. I sounds silly but it really helped me when I started working out. Another that helped my sister we a picture in the kitchen, she was wearing shorts and a tank top. It pushed her to workout so she could replace the picture when she felt comfortable in an outfit similar to that. You could get a walk calendar that you look at every day and set a side a time to go running, mark it on the calendar so you remember. And the best way to stick with any workout/diet is to reward your self. Set goals at like 10, 20, and so on, as far as pounds lost. Make sure it isn't a food reward and make your final reward something big. While I was losing weight I set my goals and once I lost as much weight as I felt I needed to I gave myself a $1500 shopping spree. The time it takes to lose the weight will give you time to save up the money. Besides you will need to buy new clothes anyways once you have slimmed down.

well, in the beginning, you would really have to force yourself to it. but try to make some friends in the park that you'd go for jogging, and meeting them and working out with them would be your motivation... well atleast that's what one of my relative do to keep herself motivated.

i myself didn't find the solution to weight loss in running. i did that for quite a while but for no result, and where i live, the temperature is a torture, so jogging isn't pleasant either. if you are finding it hard to get things going, then you might as well start exercising at home, like i did. i used to do yoga, and the early bit of exercises left my muscles cramped and that was enough motivation for me to get back to exercise lol cause the exercise relieved that pain.

in the end it all paid off and i lost 17 kgs

I don't have any real answers for you but I wanted to read what others are telling you as I need to find the will power myself, to stay motivated in whatever exercises and dieting I am doing.

I don't like to run so I bought myself a bike and I ride instead. My daughter has a bike too so we ride together. That is my motivation although sometimes I still don't go because I am tired or lazy.

I like the idea that you are exercising but you also need to diet a little or you won't loose any weight. What I suggest to you is to cut back on the carbs. Or if you can stand it, keep the carbs right out of your diet for about a month and see how quickly the pounds drop off. I know because I lost 40 pounds in just two months, just by not eating any carbs. Carbs are things like bread and rice and noodles and potatoes.

Well, good luck with your running and loosing weight.

i think losing weight needs very strong willpower.one years ago,i just graduated from school,and i think i am too fat.so i decided to lose weight.firstly i want to go to the fitness club.but it is dear for me.so i changed my way.i do many kind of sports,such as running,practising when i am taking a shower,do some sports on the bed.i think another key of losing weight in my life is my diet.generally,i didn't let myself keeping hungry all the time.but i will eat some low calories food,such as vegetables,fruits with low sugar. and far from fried food and fat food.sports with proper diet are important things in losing weight.also keep a happy and upward life will help you to do all the thing.if you are always laziness anything will fail.go on,and make your deep decisions to beat the laziness with srong well-power.the light is not far from you

i have a problem in losing weight too... and it was just when i found out i have a hypohtyroidism that i know what was wrong with my body... having something like that means i have a slow metabolism, so even if i eat small portions only i gain weight.

try to take note also of your eating habit and how your body reacts to it, i think in trying to lose weight we should try to understand how our body reacts to foods we eat.

i do exercise, running dont work for me. sit ups does. bike nope, aerobics does. see what works for you. if you really like to run, try treadmill, go to the gym if there's one near your place.

and lastly, i drink senna tea every night. it's a laxative, body cleansing tea. helps me control my weight. there are two things you have to watch if you're going to drink this, first is that once you start on this, watch how you lbm, the time, as it will become regular, daily. and if you are going to stop this, this is the tricky part, you will always feel hungry, so you have to discipline yourself. this tea habit is what works best for me in losing weight.

Be consistent, set small goals for yourself - you may begin with 20 minute morning runs and increase gradually. Establishing a routine that works for you will keep you motivated along with recording your activity and taking your measurements, I'd avoid the scale. Keep pictures of yourself around too, before and what you want to look like afterwards - I cut out pictures of the bodies I want and tap my head to them and carry them with me lol - that's a motivator - good luck

i always get up every early to run in the moring, that will good for my health,and good for my whole day mood. i have just keep running for several months. i want to run without the seen by my family, i don't know why i don't want show better to my familly.

Don't take it too hard on yourself. When you start running and have such high goals you usually tend to work too hard. And give it up when you feel that you are straining a lot. So just work normally and slowly without any initial stress. Keep it slow and you will surely make a lot out of your running workout. I loved that photo tip someone gave in the beginning and I thnk you should follow it to give you an inspiration to lose your weight.

there's too much way to loose weight.If you don't have time to go running,you can try to ride bicycle instead of running.Or go to a club and the coach will help you to loose your weight.If you want to keep running,my suggestion is that you can get up early and make a timetable.And to finish it everyday it will also help stength your mind.
