How to get and stay motivated to exercise

Hey guys! My new year resolution 2015 is to lose weight but I don't think I am getting anywhere since I am super lazy and I literally living by my computer everyday. I hardly get up and exercise. I know this is a super unhealthy and  that is why I am creating a #RDIY to help myself get motivated to exercise. Well, I actually have two #RDIYs here for both you guys and super lazy and fat me.(I was called fat and if you are going through the same thing, I understand. There are a lot of great advice on Youtube now for the #Dear Me campaign and you should watch it. Well, I personally think that exercising isn't just to lose weight and be skinny or whatsoever. We exercise to keep our body healthy and de-stress if you get stressed easily like moi. As for those who judge other people karma will get you, so try to keep your mouth shut if you don't have anything good to say.)
 Okay, I am writing super long and I have to stop for the intro as here is the #RDIY:


  • First, google for exercise motivational quotes and you will get a bunch of different quotes. 
  • Right click the image and pick save image as if you are inserting it onto a word document. Then, open a new WORD document and click insert picture at the heading. Browse through your files and eventually you will find the pic. Play with the size and print them out when you are happy with everything.
  • As for those of you guys who are using PAINT, right click copy image and paste it onto a new paint document. Print the quotes out when you are happy with the size and arrangements.



  • Cut out each quote nicely.




  • Take a piece of recycle paper or any paper you like. Fold it into quarters so that the paper is stronger, then glue everything together.




  • Glue the quote onto the paper.






  •  After that, take out your colourful pens and write down any exercise you want to do.
  • For me, I wrote down:
  • jogging
  • badminton
  • stretching
  • weights
  • crunches
  • sit-ups
  • push-ups
  • You can choose any exercise you like and combine them altogether.




  • Here is a tip:
  • Write down some positive things like present or small things that you enjoy doing but aren't allowed to do or have a small snack and this will motivate you to finish your task of the day. (P. S I love Youtube :D)

  • Or you can write negative things that you hate doing. (You can probably guess that I don't do house chores.) P.S Check Joanna Soh on Youtube. She is great.


You can also label the easy and hard exercises at the back of each card thing so that you can do some easy ones when you are tired, but if you really are exhausted, have some beauty sleep, don't stress yourself out.)

  • I kept the cards in an old pencil case and yeah it looks so organised.

Well, I guess this is it for this blog post. I hope you guys enjoyed it and Happy Exercising. Don't stress out if the results aren't coming fast, relax and just enjoy exercising cuz it will take some time for your body to lose weight and convert all the fat into muscle. Trust me. If you are forcing yourself, you are eventually going to give up, but if you enjoy it, you will get there and you will be the hottest girl/guy/man/ woman out there;)
Let's be exercise buddies!

-Love 
Jasmine:D
