    It sounds like a good plan but don't be so rigid that you beat yourself up if you don't meet it everyday. You have to give yourself some flexibility. You also need to mix things up a little so you don't get bored with your workout routines. For instance, I don't always do the same type of things. I have several walking DVD's that I like to do and change them up or I do a swimming workout instead of my walking DVD's or I will go for a walk outside if it is a nice day with my ipod. Or I will go to the college walking track and try to beat my time of walking within a certain distance. I try to beat my records every time when I walk outside or on the track. I also have a Wii fit that I use the Wii fit plus to workout everyday with or at least do the body test everyday to see where I am at and if I am meeting my goals on it. Plus if you mix your routines up your body dosen't get used to doing the same thing everyday. Our bodies get pretty effecient and if we do the same exercises everyday then we burn less calories than we would have if we mix our routines up. I also don't always work out at the same time it is usually whenever I can fit it in during the day. Sometimes I workout in the morning, afternoon, or evening whatever works for me. Sorry this isn't much help but it works for me. My eating plan is set on times so I remember to eat but other then that I am not so rigid with my workout schedules. I just make sure that I get them in throughout the day.

    sounds like my day except I always workout before I eat. I work out better on an empty stomach atleast in the mornings. in the evenings I just make sure my 3 oclock snack is a healthy protein bar or banana to take me thru my workout.

    If t'were me I'd swap the walk and the shred. No way I'm gonna really bring it for 20 minutes of hardcore circuit training at 8pm. I'm usually winding down by then.

    If it'll work for you then more power to ya'... I like to exercise early in the day, then hose off with a cold shower and launch an assault on the world - - - all gassed up and hit it.

    That's harsh honey,,, I wouldn't bring that stuff up about you.

    Ok,,, I would, but I'd feel quilty about it later.

    Ok,,,,,,, maybe not. But I'd sense on some level that I probably should feel guilty about it (I won't feel guilty, but I'll know that I should, and that ain't bad).

    You have such a guilt complex...well you don't, but you know you should, and that's worth something.
