Love the Exercise You Do
YOUR DAILY FIT TIP

Why isn’t your exercise program working for you? Probably because you never do it! Studies show that the #1 problem with losing weight is not the diet or fitness plan itself, but rather a lack of follow-through.
The real key is to find an exercise you enjoy. That way you'll look forward to your workouts rather than dreading them. More importantly, you'll be more likely to do them rather than finding inventive ways of avoiding them.
You don't have to get on a treadmill if you don't like it. Bike, swim, hike, walk, dance, climb, or do whatever you love to do – just make sure you move! You can even play tag if you want, as long as you keep moving and work up a sweat. The more you exercise, the more weight you’ll lose, and the happier you’ll be because you aren’t torturing yourself with needless hours of exercises you hate to do.
Whatever you choose, just stick with it!

MY THOUGHTS
The 'stick with it' is the hard part. I like walking. But i find I get motivation from walking the path I've never walked before and challenging myself not to get lost. So, as soon as I get comfortable with a path I hardly ever notice it at all, I seek another path.
