How do you guys stay motivated to diet and workout?

Just curious as to how other people do.

Personally, i keep picture of physiques i want around, and pictures of my ex =P

Also, i have two things written on my bathroom mirror.

"Every Day Is A New Battle"

"Today you are closer to the person you were meant to become"

So how do you do it?

    I have to do a way better job re: the diet aspect. I eat way too much fast food (today I purchased some spinach and lettuce which I'll snack on from now on when I'm driving somewhere).

    There are various factors which motivate me to hit the gym. The first is the hot female presence I usually find there each time I go :)

    The second is work. I'm unemployed now, but I think working out is important anyhow because you never know when a job interview will arrive..and I have one coming up soon, so I'm glad I hit the gym. Plus, I like the pump I usually get afterwards. And if I feel and look pumped, I like to think my appearance will be further enhanced, and I'll look better in that interview suit.

    If I were working, I still would workout as often as I could. I usually work in office environments so I figure not only will I look better when I sport on slacks and formal buttoned shirts, but the cardio rush will help me think clearer too and I'll be able to do a better job when sitting in that cubicle.

    I'm not one to advocate dating coworkers but I think a guy who works out regularly will probably have a better chance of getting a better response from that hot single lady from Logistics :) rather than a guy who doesn't appear to hit the gym, like Milton (referencing the movie "Office Space")
