Hi there!
I have been power walking for almost 10 years. Motivation can be tough! In TX our summers are hot, and winters can be wet. It's all in the head, I think. In the summer, I walk at 6am before work, and in the winter, as soon as I get home in the evening. If I give myself one moment's fleeting thought that I don't want to go - I won't! I really have to force myself somedays. It would be easier if I had someone to go with.
Also, I have ordered Walk Away the Pounds videos, for days when the weather just doesn't permit. It's a walking workout you do in your living room. Hope this helped.

:) HELLO AND THANKS FOR REPLYING KAREN :)
Right now i powerwalk in the mornings before work at 5:00 am and its warm out but soon it will be cold and i can't stand the cold. i will put on a lot of layers and go walking but it is not the same. i always lose my motivation in the winter and then i get depressed. i don't want to lose my motivation. thank you for the suggestion
