yeah it can be hard, but honestly do it when you get home right away...if you sit around and say you'll do it later its alot harder and don't even think oh should i do it now...Just come home and say ok gotta do this and just get to it

dont think of that though...for me i think hmmm ok so either hate the way i look in all my clothes, or be happy with the way things fit me and feel good.

i do really well if i stick to a schedule - but yesterday i had to go to FILs for FFIL's birthday and then today i didnt have my car and i NEEDED a mani/pedi so i had to wait around for a ride so two days shot - and tomorrow is the dermatologist grrrrr

but if all i have is work then i come straight home i change, eat a yogurt and get to sweating!

I usually do 30 minutes of cardio at 7pm. I like to have evrything done before I work out. I make dinner, eat, make my lunch for the next day, pick out clothes for next day, straighten up and then its workout time

I do too, but unfortunately it's not workout related

I agree....its very hard to stay motivated durring the week. What I do is I pack a gym bag, bring it to work, and go straight to the gym after work. If I dont do that, then I know I will never make it to the gym cause once im home...im done for the night.

Re: Working out during the workweek

I have such a hard time because I like to unwind when I get home from work, but if I take too long then I feel like its too late and so easy to talk myself out of it... so now I'm trying to come home get changed and workout right away then wind down later....

I try to wake up and workout in the morning but I'm too much of a sleepyhead!

It is sooo hard. Especially when there are so many other chores that NEED to be done first. Ugh!

Re: Working out during the workweek

I go before work...yes everyone prob thinks I'm crazy for it but it gets me going and makes me feel better during the day AND eating-wise too. The real reason is that I never know when I'm getting out of work, and most of the time its after 7:30 so its nice to just go home and veg out...I don't think I could do it if I went home first I'd never leave lol.
