  • I have the alarm set on my cell phone to say, "SKINNY TIME". I laugh and get up.

    There are mornings though where I just reset the thing and end up working out after work though.

    Mine says 'Time to get up Fatty' and another one 10 minutes later that says 'Seriously. It's time"
    Thats what I need!! Where did you get those ringtones??

    Mine isn't a ringtone - it's the normal tone, but on iPhone you can give alarms labels so it flashes up on the screen. I also have one at night that says "Kill the babies" to remind me to take my HBC. Quite offensive, I suppose!
  • haha I want an iphone. :(

    I can easily get up to work out early when I have to for work, however, I'm usually tired from working out the night before so I half *kitten* my mandatory PT in the mornings. So, my secret, is that I have to.

    I have to get up at 3:30 to be at the gym by 4 and be done working out by 6am. It's hard, no doubt. I don't sleep well either which makes it difficult and I am a bit of a night owl, or at least I was. I just make sure I'm in bed by 9pm / 9:30pm. It was hard at first but my body has adjusted and I'm usually falling asleep by 8:30pm now. But if I'm up any later than 10pm I have a hard time getting up.

    This is my problem! I have to get up at 5am for work (only 6 days a month) and as I am driving to work I think to myself "why can't I get up this early everyday!!!" but I just want to sleep till the kiddos get me up and then my day is shot!
