Mamavation Monday Week #7

After the flu, here I am again with another post for mamavation.
Very happy to realize that I lost again, this time a whole pound, 138 lbs.

I must admit, wasn't really difficult, since I wasn't able to eat much the whole week given the flu, just fluids. So, no much surprise.

This week Mamavation sponsor is Fitstudio and the question of the week is:

What motivates you to get going and what keeps you going?

I'll say that most times it's really easy to loose motivation and when I do, I know is painfully difficult to get it back. My motivation is most things that I do is the thought of working myself to be a better person and I try to keep going repeating to myself that if I stop now will not be a big deal that I didn't reach my goal, but will be shameful and awful to loose all the work done so far.

This post is sponsored by SEARS FitStudio and I’m writing this to be entered into a giveaway hosted by Mamavation and sponsored by Sears.
