A couple of months ago I started attending Bootcamp classes at Glatter Fitness on Lakeside Avenue.  It was extremely convenient being so close to my house, I really liked the classes and I was starting to establish a routine of getting up at 5:30am to make the 5:45am class.  I was feeling stronger and really looking forward to the classes and then something happened.  I sabotaged my own efforts.  Yes, I said it.  I started making excuses and stopped going to class.  Why did I do this?  Well I have a lot of great reasons that I'm sure you would love to hear but in the end they all turned out to be excuses, thus not worth sharing.  I realized there was a reason that I was making so many excuses.  The early morning time-slot just wasn't working for my schedule.  I loved the classes but I did not love getting up that early.  And so I made some changes.  I have now rearranged my work and family schedule just a little so that I am able to attend either the 6:45am or 9:00am classes.....no more excuses. 

My point is:  Don't give up on the change process.  Keep at it until you find what works best for you and your life.  Change is all about trial and error.  Sometimes you have to try something different; different activities, different environments, different approaches, and even different times until you find what works best for you.  Once you find that, the excuses magically disappear.
