Remember, workouts don't have to be boring! And doing the same thing every day will actually lull your body into complacency and it will stop working as well.
I was in a hotel earlier this week and used the fitness room. At first I went to my old standby - the treadmill. But this treadmill had SERIOUS issues so I hopped off and jumped on the elliptical machine. 20 minutes later I was toast! Different muscles, different effort. But it felt good. A little sore later in the day, but totally worth it.
With the weather getting so nice, and it isn't brutally hot - yet, use this time to vary your workouts. Get outside and soak up the sunshine while you run, or walk the dog, or garden. Your body will thank you.
At least it will eventually.

I have enjoyed reading this blog. It has motivated me and a friend to start our own weight loss blog. I started last Friday and I weigh in tomorrow. I have 33 pounds to lose. I'll let you know how it goes! Thanks for sharing!
Okay, girl......my first week and I lost 4.6 pounds! I am soooo excited! Today I gave myself the day "off" but that was a bad move. I feel horrible because of some things I ate. I feel so much better eating well and exercising, not to mention I am sleeping like a log which never happens! You have motivated me, girl!
