I to suffer from lack of motivation especially after a whole day with children running around, cleaning etc... I am tired by the end of the day... but this is what I have been doing... I firstly enrol my partner in supporting me.... Then I schedule in a calender (a big white board one that everyone can see, husband, children visitors etc...) and I schedule exercise with my husband and with friends if possible. Then I share with everyone I meet that i am doing this fitness challenge... which includes 6 days eating lean and green diet and one day off a week that i can do whatever I want....I also put up motivational quotes like. 'Nothing tastes as good as fit feels' etc... and I aint perfect... Some days I just don't want to and that is when my hubby's support kicks in or my childrens' or a friend asks me how I am going or a read one of my quotes...and i get back into action.... Another practise I take on is I complete the week and start a fresh the next week... Hi Rachel,

My body will nevere be the same as it was before having children, but I just tell my husband that it means there is even more of me to love! Sometimes it's hard to see the positives instead of the faults, so thankyou for giving me a boost to remember which way round it should be!
