find an exercise buddy
Despite the fact that exercise is often associated with exercise equipment, like a treadmill, that is not all that exercise is about. Exercise can also involve something simple like going for a walk or taking the stairs instead of the elevator at work. If you would prefer to exercise, for free, in your spare time, you may want to consider finding an exercise buddy. This is a person who can workout with you, even if it just involves walking around your local shopping mall. Not only can you make a new friend or strengthen your relationship with one of your current friends, having an exercise buddy or an exercise partners often means that you are more likely to stick with your weight loss plan and achieve your weight loss goals.

Indeed, I see people run around the gym all the time going from machine to machine without any real plan, without any real goals except that “I’d really like to loose some weight”
The relationship can make all the difference; having a plan and real friends to support you really makes the difference between loosing the 30 pounds and just wasting 30 hours at the gym.
love your blog, I’m a home office woman too.
