    Thanks everyone, all good ideas. I will try walking during breaks between my patients! It can get pretty busy in my urgent care, but i will try ;)

    I'm an urgent care nurse and work 12 hr shifts. I work 2-3 days per week and don't exercise on days I work. If I try to put pressure on myself to exercise those days I just get discouraged. I figure 4-5 days is pretty good.

    I'm a housewife myself, but husband works shift schedule at a paper mill and we run our daily schedule around his work since I drive him to/from most of the time.

    Whether he's working days/nights, we get up at 4, leave for work at 5, I'll pick him up at 6, then we'll go to the company gym for a half hour before heading home.
