Just to let everyone know, I haven't stopped. My log has been neglected because I am doing less lifting and more jiu jitsu and muay thai for fitness. I am down 22 pounds since I started and am feeling great. I am still lifting a couple times a week but usually focus on big compound lifts like dead lifts, cleans, bench press etc, sometimes I also just do full body circuit lifting. The weight is actually coming off faster then ever and I am super happy with the progress so far.

How to stay motivated to workout?
xdarthveganx replied to veganbjjtino's topic in Bodybuilding/Strength Training
What has helped me is finding a strict plan that has everything planned out for me ahead of time. I am 4 weeks into a 12 week program and I find the structure helps quite a bit. -

I just went through this myself. I found that it helps to find a strict program you can follow. I am on a 12 week program where everything I need to do is laid out for me ahead of time. Makes it a lot easier.
