So I would really like to start working out, but I have absolutely NO motivation! Part of it is because I have very bad asthma and any slight running wears me out and upsets my asthma. Also, I am very out of shape. Another reason why I get so tired so quickly.
So what would be the best way to get past this to start getting more active? What can I do to become more motivated to work out? Please let me know in the comments, it would be greatly appreciated! :]

When you first begin, it's best for you to make a schedule for when you will work out. For the next two weeks, it will be a matter of self discipline as to whether you keep with the schedule or not. I found it effective to put reminders on places that I visit frequently such as on my computer monitor or inside my binder at school to prevent me from working out. I will say from my experience, after the first two or three weeks of having a regular workout, it kinda just becomes part of your day, and it might even feel weird if the occasion rises where you can't workout.
Don't give up. Winner never quit. Quitter never win.
my motivation is just looking at other girls with a good body figure and i tell myself that if i keep up with my diet, i'll be just like them
i have several ways to motivate myself! first of all, if you're worried about being out of shape and embarrassed to go to the gym (like i used to be!), try streaming some workout videos on your computer and do it in the comfort of your home for awhile to gain some confidence. i also love listening to crazy dance music while i work out, it makes the time pass by more quickly! i also draw a little pink heart on my calendar for every day that i work out, and i try to fill up my calendar with as many hearts as possible. maybe you could even reward yourself for getting a certain amount of hearts, like buying a small something that you've wanted or something!
hope my tips helped! good luck with your fitness goals, i know you can do it! you will feel amazing once you start, i guarantee it!
I think you should start small by doing a 5 minute simple exercise routine and then gradually build it up day after day.
check out www.toneitup.com! they are beautiful, beautiful, beautiful girls and are SUPER inspiring. Plus you can join what they call the "tone it up team" and you can get inspiration from other members (its free to sign up.. it only costs if you buy the diet plan). Anyway check them out.. they are doing a series now called toned in '12 which started a month ago, but thats okay!
