    I'm too busy. I walk and do a lot of manual labor. that's my workout.
  • Get a dog!! I take mine for a walk twice a day, about 30 minutes each, most of which is uphill. Puppy loves it and I am able to go a little further everyday. Also, yoga--it changed my life.

    SO TRUE!

    As a very busy working mom, I was a classic "I have no time" or "I'm too busy" excuse maker. I was also 30lbs overweight, eating like crap and feeling tired and lazy all the time. Ugh!

    I gave up the excuses 4 months ago and now I'm down 25lbs, eating healthy, working out daily (I do my workouts at home) and feeling soooo much better! It truly is about priorities and I decided to put my health and well-being first...and my daughter (21 months old) loves working out with mommy! Hoping she will develop good habits young :)

    Well said! I too am guilty of not scheduling my workout and find myself prioritizing all wrong --- taking care of others before taking care of myself.... which is really a recipe for disaster because if I don't take care of myself, how can I take care of others?

    Time to pull out the daytimer and start my lists and schedule myself in first.

    You make time. It isn't always easy but it pays off in the long run.
