Routines
It’s very easy for me to not stick to a routine. I’m the queen of excuses, my most loved excuse being “I’m too tired.” And it’s always true, I’m pretty much always too tired to do the things I don’t want to do. Take this past week for instance. I’ve been crap at exercising, but…

Routines
I need a new routine. My usual routine is to workout when I get home from work. Lately I’ve been leaning toward getting up earlier and working out then. This would save me time in the evenings and give me some peace of mind that I have already done something at least! I’d like to…

In all the years that I’ve struggled with my weight I always knew it was a matter of will power and determination, basically getting off your ass and exercising instead of sitting around doing nothing and ensuring you…
