    I go to bed in my workout clothes. Sports bra and all! 4;30 am alarm. Sneakers right next to my bed. As long as I don't lie there thinking about all of the reasons I should just stay in bed, I get up. Don't think about it, just do it. And I have found that I feel so much better and awake throughout the day when I get it over with in the am. Especially with a busy schedule!

    Today I allowed myself to think about it. I went back to sleep. I regretted it as soon as I got up an hour and a half later.

    Same for me...getting up early to exercise was just setting myself up for failure. I now do it when the kids go to bed...from about 8-9 in the evening. If you really do want to work out in the morning, then you will do it, but if you are just saying it because it seems like the "Right thing to do", it probably won't.
