Replies lucid dreams19 Posted at 10:51 pm on Dec. 14, 2008 Well im so depressed and I think that if I have a really good looking body people will like me I will hopefully have a 6 pack by January or February But im depressed and drunk so i wouldn't listen to me tell me again Posted at 10:49 pm on Dec. 14, 2008 I'm so unmotivated. Even pre-paying membership couldn't help me =/ agerask Posted at 10:48 pm on Dec. 14, 2008 i would suggest getting a really kick-ass playlist.  if you're going back to the gym for a specific reason (like, for me, i went back because i am enlisting in the army) and you have a goal, try to include songs that fit with your goal's theme (i personally like fort minor's remember the name).  also, if you think it would help, try to find some thinspiration.  if you're a girl, and have facebook, look for the groups that are against banning thin models from modeling.  they have tons of pictures of beautiful thin people. if you're a guy, then find pictures of men with the specific muscles you want toned and use those. that's what i do. good luck. Stellar Posted at 10:46 pm on Dec. 14, 2008 Plan out a schedule for working out over a long period of time and set goals for improvement (e.g. I'm going to run 5 miles one week, then the next week I'll try 7). And don't try to do too much all at once. Ease into it. Start off slower, and gradually work your way up. If you start off full-force, you might find it too challenging to keep up and give up. blufindr Posted at 10:45 pm on Dec. 14, 2008 Dangle a carrot in front of your nose?
