BANDMOM_TERESA 8/21/2009 1:16:49 AM	That would be AWESOME...I need all the motivation I can get.	2958
ELISABETHTHOMAS 1/1/2009 7:43:17 AM	No one in my family is the least bit athlethic; we are all very academic. I have to force myself to workout, I admit, as I am almost always sore to some degree or other the next morning. However, when I am in "the zone," I get a natural "high," which, in combination with the overall health benefits, makes it all worth it. Now if I can just get in the habit of getting up and getting started more often! =)	2957

LEXILEVEN 12/26/2008 5:52:26 PM	When I work out, I feel mentally refreshed but physically tired - means I sleep well though and want to do it again!	2951
LOSING.MARILYN 12/26/2008 3:14:09 PM	before I work out I usually don't want to and tell myself just 15 minutes is all I have to do. By the time I hit the 15 minutes I want to go longer since I am getting energized and my aches have disappeared and I am just feeling better in general so it is easier to keep exercising.	2950
DHICE7398 12/26/2008 2:30:13 PM	So many times I avoid exercise because of pain. Yoga could be the push I need to get over the hurt hurdle. Happy New Year!	2949
NEW_ROMANTIC 12/26/2008 11:11:51 AM	I always feel great when I workout, so afterwards, I wonder why I have a hard time being consistent.	2948

AMBERSTAR2 12/26/2008 7:35:25 AM	When I work out I find that not only do I have energy but notice that all the aches I had before have gone away. Plus my mood elevates and I eat less. I have wanted to try yoga for a long time so this giveaway is awesome!	2943

SUNNYDAY247 12/26/2008 6:25:05 AM	Great !	2941
DJSNELLING 12/26/2008 6:23:39 AM	I've not been very good at working out the past few months, so when I am able to get motivated and fit it into my schedule, I feel a sense of great accomplishment to begin with. Then the workout itself always increases my energy level and makes my heart and body feel so much stronger.	2940
KELLEY421 12/26/2008 5:55:40 AM	Working out makes me feel more motivated to eat right and gives me more energy.	2939
MOMOKO 12/26/2008 5:36:15 AM	When I work out I feel strong and confident. I feel worthwhile and deserving of good health.	2938
BOBBO48 12/26/2008 5:22:35 AM	GETTING STARTED IS SOMETIMES HARD,BUT IT'S WORTH IT.	2937
MAKADOODLE 12/26/2008 4:50:57 AM	Seems like the first 6 minutes is a chore, then I can begin to 'get into' it . Of course, getting started is the hardest part!	2936

FRENCHTOSD 12/26/2008 2:31:54 AM	I always feel energized after a workout.	2934
GRACE542 12/26/2008 2:27:21 AM	What a unique way to get into exercise. I would love something like this. I would never be able to afford it on my pay,it seems fun.	2933
ANNZAK 12/26/2008 1:34:08 AM	I need to commit to a regular exercise program. I am looking for help in setting and reaching that goal.	2932
TEVIAG 12/26/2008 1:17:20 AM	Working out must be a top priority for me. Everyday, I think of it- and it stays in my head until I do it! There are days, I feel like I could run a marathon with all the energy I have inside- But the harder days, or rather, the "normal" days, I push myself, challenging myself through every minute, every 5 minutes, in order to reach my goal. It's incredible to feel the accomplishment and the inner strength I get from keeping myself disciplined. I always feel refreshed and really happy that I pushed myself to work out afterward, no matter how hard it is at the beginning. It's not that working out is always easy, or that it is a "pleasure", it's because of the benefits rewarded from effort and hard work. It still remains true that nothing of value or importance is given away freely, it must be earned.	2931
ALEXANDREAMARIE 12/26/2008 12:18:45 AM	When I work out, I feel very accomplished and proud of myself. Just starting out, everytime I work out it's one more step toward my goal. Plus, if I work out early in the day, I'm more likely to do better on my intake because I don't want to ruin what I already worked hard for.	2930
COUNTRYRANDR 12/25/2008 11:28:53 PM	I would love to get one of these! how wonderful for the winner!	2929
2SWEETGIRLS 12/25/2008 11:21:24 PM	When I work out I feel a variety of different things - sometimes I feel a sense of emotional release (super on a really irritating day). Sometimes I feel heavy and as though I can't finish (it's with these workouts that I'm usually the most proud of myself for completing). Sometimes it's something I'm checking off my list - but I'm so happy and proud that exercising is back on my list and this time I plan to keep it on my list for the rest of my life!! I also just know that it's helping me be a better, healthier Mommy for my girlies.	2928
KINDS82 12/25/2008 11:16:46 PM	That would be sweeeet!	2927
MINDYHGP 12/25/2008 11:15:51 PM	I feel relieved that my exercise for the day is over...lol	2926
PICKLES84 12/25/2008 11:06:42 PM	when I work out it gives me energy and helps me feel good about myself!!	2925

COURTI7 12/25/2008 10:18:24 PM	there isn't an 'edit' so I couldn't go back to add my comment about how I feel, but I feel great when I exercise first thing in the morning, strength and cardio.	2915

GREENTARA58 12/25/2008 9:39:57 PM	I feel great after I exercise. I have the problem of actually starting to exercise. The bigger I get the harder it gets and I used to be moderately athletic. Yikes!	2911
ROAD2HEALTHY 12/25/2008 9:37:00 PM	I feel stress free and ready to go on and take whatever battle comes my way after I work out!	2910
ANGELB791 12/25/2008 9:32:06 PM	Hello - I think the best advice I have ever gotten was - when you are tired, work-out and you won't feel tired anymore! Try it!	2909
