I also really wish I had them for myself as well. I do know that when I am the most successful is when I don't give myself a choice. When I just make a blanket statement that I will do it, I usually do. If I give myself a chance to back-out one day, I back out a lot. I have a lot of encouragement around me - a very supportive and active husband, a friend/co-worker who is totally on the wagon, and a great blogging community. And I still find myself on the scale upswing. We're all in this together. Just keep on keeping on! One day, it'll click. Right?

I'm much better at doing something at home before I shower and get out of the house. I've used various workouts. We have a treadmill and a bike. I just recently got the Bender Ball and I love the workouts that came with it. (I got four dvds with it and am concentrating on the buns & thighs one for this month.) Definitely make the time, don't wait for leftover time - we never have it! :-) I can’t get out of the house to do it.

I think it will be easy once I get started again and get into the habit. Scheduling it sounds like a good idea instead of just saying I will do it if I have time because I somehow always manage to let the time slip by. Thanks for the ideas Heather.
