Sandi,

Interestingly enough my wife and I were discussing this topic recently. She is not particularly motivated when it comes to exercise. I am. It is one of those differences that occur among people. While she will occasionally complain about clothing sizes or not having energy or her wait, she hasn't found the motivation to do anything about it.

Lest you think I am running her down, let me say that in her defense, her day is spent caring for our very active 15 month old. As you know, that is a day that extends through all 24 hours and seems to last more like 30 hours on some days. However, she has never really been interested in exercise, even before the baby.

We are all motivated differently. It seems that I came into the world motivated. I am very optimistic and rarely believe in the word 'impossible'.

Why do you feel the need to exercise? What do you hope to accomplish? In other words, what's your motivation? Once you honestly answer those questions, in light of your overall lifestyle, then you might be able to find an exercise system that suits you. There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to exercise, no matter what the infomercials tell us.
