I'm a 19 year old that works a second shift job and ends up staying up late to have time with friends most nights but I am trying to become healthier, more responsible, and more organized. Its a bit difficult doing that when like I said I end up staying up late even on the nights when I would prefer to go to sleep earlier. Do you have any tips for me?Rainbowhippie11https://www.blogger.com/profile/06266009881944828839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429956742155711982.post-18682565611609221012013-01-02T02:20:18.037-06:002013-01-02T02:20:18.037-06:00Hi theгe mateѕ, pleasant paragraph

That never happens to me! Then again, I don't have a small child to care for, so maybe the partner for whom I work would be more understanding if I did.<br /><br />I also wanted to mention that YouTube has some great, free workout videos. I do a series of ballet bootcamp ones, and they kick my butt every time. To find them, just search "ballet bootcamp." They're challenging, but watching all the ballet dancers do them is so motivating - I want my thighs to look like they could crack concrete, too!<br /><br />Cheers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03493364619124209784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429956742155711982.post-33038232281256827112012-10-10T19:12:14.804-05:002012-10-10T19:12:14.804-05:00Just seeing the new blog...love it! I keep childr...Just seeing the new blog...love it! I keep children in my home and many times have a little one as early as 6:45 and as late as 4:30. I also have a 7 year old of my own and once the little ones I keep leave we hit the door for some sporting event or church. I am a big fan of home workouts. I am currently doing Jillian Michaels Revolution. I am about finished with the program but plan to do it again and do it with all the things she suggests to "take it up a notch," like adding more weights, increasing the number of reps etc. The first 4 weeks were easier for me but the 5-10th weeks have been killers. I like them because they are about 35 minutes. I usually can get those in while a little one is taking a nap or they can play right along side me. I have done other DVD's by Jillian Michaels and find them a good workout. I also take kids in the stroller and go for a run too. <br />I have done bootcamps but my husband leaves for work too early for me to go anymore. I love them and would like to find one I can do even one time a week just to change things up a bit. <br />Really, it's a mindset, like you say. For years, I tried to do quiet time and exercise on the morning before 7:00am. My problem was I wasn't going to bed early enough and as much as we would like to say we can make it on 5-6 hours of sleep, we can't if we want to get the exercise in. I also think you have to evaluate what you wan the most....TV or a toned body, facebook or exercise, chatting on the phone or toned arms. That one thing was a kicker for me...where was I wasting time or letting something I really wanted slip away from me because I wouldn't stop doing mindless activities. You can do it at home just like you can at the gym...it 's up to you to push yourself to do the harder workout, do the extra reps, not stop because no one is actually there watching you.

Thank you for sharing.<br /><br />I am mom to 2 girls, the older one is in school, but baby Boo is 2 and is still home with me, our small town gyms do not offer child care and we have no domestic help / nanny / support so no gym for me. :( <br />I'm a photographer, so I work at home, and after the kids go to bed, I start editing, so I cant gym after hours either. LOL<br />I've however started exercising at home (so far just turbofire and taebo), I don't know why I didn't sooner, I had so many excuses and all was rubbish.<br />I have a long way to go, I know it, but I keep reminding myself that it took a long time for my body to get this bad, it's going to take time to recover it.. <br />I know that one day, I will also be able to post a before and after photo.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your journey! <br />I look forward to following it!<br />Tash<br />xoxo<br />Tashhttp://www.kamtaetashi.co.za/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429956742155711982.post-51456887231638034202012-09-29T10:45:10.200-05:002012-09-29T10:45:10.200-05:00I'm a HUGE fan of workout DVDs!

I have always been very into fitness and try to maintain despite now being 40 and having a 7 and a 5 year old. Fortunately I freelance and only work part-time so I am flexible, but it's easiest for me now to work out at home. Some of my fave DVD's are as follows- pretty much anything by Jillian Michaels, Turbofire, Tracy Anderson, and Jackie Warner all have great stuff to check out! What's especially helpful about Turbofire and a lot of Jillian's stuff is that they are short, we're talking 20-30 minutes tops but you get all that you need to get- really good for Moms! Keep up the great work Megan, thanks!

I have been extremely into continuing my workouts the past few years despite now being 40 and having a 7 and a 5 year old! I am fortunate to not have to work too much but do freelance some (I'm a musician). I now workout at home and these are my fave workout DVD's- Jillian Michaels, ripped in 30, shed/shred, any of hers really. Turbofire- which is Chalene, she rocks! Tracy Anderson metamorphosis and jackie warner also have good stuff.
