14 JANUARY 2019 Reprogramming myself this year, I hope. I have read so many inspiring posts on here lately, it make me feel like I can really do it, but how? I have realized that the level of energy I'm willing to put into my health & fitness has been completely hinged on ONE thing : APPEARANCE. So when I stopped working [in an industry where I'd see 150+ people every day ], I felt my appearance didn't matter as much. Why work so hard when there's only 1 person seeing me anyway? I've spent many years now obsessing over looks, fashion, makeup, etc. it's a huge part of what I base my sense of identity on. I know I need to be consistent with my fitness routine to maintain my sanity, but that's not enough motivation. How can I actually make myself do the work when not getting any extra attention for it? Truly take specific steps to remove this dependence on outside attention for motivation.
