What three things will you need to make this happen?

WILLPOWER!

A good working knowledge of what would work best for my body.

What is the biggest barrier to your achieving this?

Lack of motivation... okay well the motivation itself is there but I absolutely hate working out so I have to force myself to do something absolutely do not enjoy.

Oh, I'm so happy to see that this is one of your goals too.  I'm on a mission to lose 60 myself this year.  What are you doing so far to reach your goal?  Getting in shape before becoming pregnant is such a wise move.  You're going to need all the health and strengh you can get together for sure and being fit ahead of time will put you in the best possible position to bounce back afterward too.   What are some things that you do enjoy when it comes to activity?  Do you like to swim?  Walk?  Jog?  Dance? Work-out DVD's?  For me, the trick is finding the right music.  If I can get a my MP3 player loaded up with some good tunes, I can go for miles on my elliptical trainer. Another trick for me... don't sit down.  If I sit down after dinner and getting the kids to bed, the chances of me getting to the gym are a zillion times diminished.  Let me know your thoughts and maybe you'd like to work out a plan here to do it together?
