    I will say this, you find time when you have to. I used to say I couldn't function without x amount of hours of sleep. Try having a baby. You'd be lucky if you have a broken 4hours, but you do it because you have to. If you treat exercise as something you HAVE to do, trust me,you'll find a way to get it done! :)

    This thread motivated me to lay my kit out last night & hit the road this morning.
    Been skipping cardio since my new job & just lifting every other day. I feel great because I got the job done :)
    Thanks to all.

    Keep up the good work...people like you amaze me!! I do not know how you do it all. And because I KNOW I will have no sleep when I have kids, I refuse to give it up now, lol. I have actually been utilizing the support you receive from MFP, and I am sticking to it and making exercise a priority!.
