Are you like me in the sense that you sometimes need to inner-argue with yourself to get your lazy ass to workout?
Its funny sometimes.
Or you say (fuck it) and eat McDonalds then get mad about it and work out real hard? lol

I exercise almost every day and rarely eat crappy food.
That said, my problem isn't getting up off my ass and say going for a run. My problem is my inner conversation telling me to stop while running as opposed to positive encouragement.0 -
When I get the feeling to exercise I lay down until the feeling goes away. Just kidding, I sometimes have to force myself but I know when i'm done i'll feel great.If you have nothing to lose, you have nothing to worry about.0

YES! I try to run at least two miles a day and lift every other with a boxing workout. And I hate running, so while doing it I always wanna find a reason to stop hahahahahaha. I sometimes say out loud "keep going you pu**Y! Move your fat ass!" even though I am not fat lol.Get em a Body Bag Yeeeeeaaaaa!

I run every day, and workout every day. I go running (at least 4 miles) outside as long as its nice outside, including those ridiculous 100 degree days, cuz heat doesnt really bother me, and treadmill in the winter. I'm kind of a fitness freak, so I never have to will myself to workout. I always have the energy.
And my eating habits are NOT very good, but hey, I'm still young.MSG II 5/21/10

It works both ways for me. I have the same inner conversation almost every day, talking myself into going and procrastinating...Not sure why I even bother because I know I'll end up going to the gym anyway. I also have a problem talking myself into NOT going when I know that I've been over-training. I know it would do my body good if I took a few days off sometimes, but then I won't feel good mentally..hmmm... :?How I choose to feel is how I am0

i have the same problem... my lower back and knees could use a few days off but I feel incredibly guilty if I do that... so I lift and run through the pain. Haven't missed a day (other than Sundays) since December!
I find that "smoking" a bit before my 5 mile runs makes it MUCH more enjoyable.Everything not forbidden is compulsory and eveything not compulsory is forbidden. You are free... free to do what the government says you can do.0 -

It bothers me when a woman is overweight, yet does nothing about it. What do you expect! Put some effort into it and see what happens I always say.Get em a Body Bag Yeeeeeaaaaa!

I do the exact same thing...I've been having lower back, buttock and hamstring pain for a few months now, and yet I keep running more hill than ever, which makes it much worse... :roll: I know I should be doing more stretching and yoga, but I find it so incredibly boring...
I'm glad you've found a way to make your running more enjoyablenot my thing though. Listening to PJ throughout my run or whatever workout I'm doing works perfectly fine for me

Hmm..why did I post that twice... :?
Ok, enough with this for now...I'm going for a runHow I choose to feel is how I am0 -
I find I can convince myself by thinking about how happy I'll be that I got in to work early enough for a really great parking space, a nice run along the Charles River, and of course, the benefit of how much better I'll feel trying on bathing suits this year.
I've never once regretted going for a run, but I hear you _ it's a bitch to think about getting up before 6 when the bed is sooooooooooooo comfy...15 years of sharks 06/30/08 (MA), 05/17/10 (Boston), 09/03/11 (Alpine Valley), 09/04/11 (Alpine Valley), 09/30/12 (Missoula), 07/19/13 (Wrigley), 10/15/13 (Worcester), 10/16/13 (Worcester), 10/25/13 (Hartford), 12/4/13 (Vancouver), 12/6/13 (Seattle), 6/26/14 (Berlin), 6/28/14 (Stockholm), 10/16/14 (Detroit)0
