I can only go after work and having put my daughter to bed, but i go there, work hard and then fall into bed into a deep sleep- it works well for me!<br /><br />If you can afford it- definately go for it!<br />x<br />lesleyLife as a Caterpillarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12060619595546876393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224939955108013553.post-18298733553629292192010-11-11T18:00:33.109-08:002010-11-11T18:00:33.109-08:00I have never belonged to a gym.

It is not that I don't think it is a good idea, I just don't have the time to spare to go to a gym, so I just do the workouts at home.South Beach Stevehttp://www.logmyloss.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224939955108013553.post-13927658856171620022010-11-11T11:06:58.086-08:002010-11-11T11:06:58.086-08:00Oooh.

...Oooh. I'd say, "Join".<br /><br />My reasons-<br />1. I know you'll be happier about the effort you're taking to work out each day.<br />2. You'll make sure you work out because you'll have paid hard-earned money.<br />3. You'll have some strict me-time for you there.<br />4. You'll get to go out for a bit.<br /><br />I think you'll like it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224939955108013553.post-69241291446363614002010-11-11T09:42:38.351-08:002010-11-11T09:42:38.351-08:00I can work out at home or in the gym...and I defin...I can work out at home or in the gym...and I definitely sleep better after working out, and I work out pretty late, too. The only nice thing about home is if my skin is revolting against me, I can take off my makeup and not worry about scaring the dogs with my zits-at the gym I feel obliged to keep the zits covered. BUT having a gym membership does add that little extra guilt that I am paying for something so I better use it. The nice thing is if you start it and yet feel motivated at home, you can quit after a month. But I gotta say-gyms are nice because they provide VARIETY-something that is almost impossible at home.<br /><br />Polar's Mom<br />www.polarspage.blogspot.comPolar's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10714065039614278619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224939955108013553.post-53053770684530138422010-11-11T08:33:21.393-08:002010-11-11T08:33:21.393-08:00I like what Allan said-be among healthy people.

And I know I won't ever have my 25 yo body again!<br />But I DO feel so much better when I exercize! And I want to be a healthy, not just slender. Did I just say that!? lol<br />I'm not a good one to consult about going to the gym, unless it's to attend an aerobics class. Excercizing WITH others energizes me.<br />Thanks for emailing me your website. blessings on your day! ps. gonna get me a weight loss ticker like yoursKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15353687786613631098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224939955108013553.post-9722585112615842342010-11-11T08:16:33.320-08:002010-11-11T08:16:33.320-08:00I lost a lot of my baby weight at home with Wii an...I lost a lot of my baby weight at home with Wii and dumbells, but there came a point I had to move on. We work out from 7-8 and I sleep great. We found a hole in the wall gym.

I think you can do it...That's a good deal! :) <br /><br />I think you can do it. We all can do it. Whether at home or at a gym. It's do we want to do it? Or are we more content to make excuses for our lack of commitment? Yep....swallow my own medicine. ;-) <br /><br />I'm not in your shoes when it comes to family life. But if I had the finances and a gym close by, I'd go. I'd go because I wouldn't have to invent ways to exercise at home. The variety is built in at the gym. I'm lazy, maybe? I'd go because it's a time in the day just for me. I'd go because it sure beats walking in the cold, in 30mph wind. I'd go because I'm sure I can find some lil dude to watch squat and bend over, of course watch discreetly :) I'd go because I've never been to the gym and it not be fun. <br /><br />It's a good deal. Do you think you can commit to it at night? Or is there a way to eek out time very early in the morning?Twixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03112782947827710096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224939955108013553.post-15460235284022396052010-11-11T07:17:15.203-08:002010-11-11T07:17:15.203-08:00I never could work out so late then flop into bed....I never could work out so late then flop into bed....<br />But I'm not exactly a run-before-coffee girl either!Anne Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10435482289459434828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224939955108013553.post-701054151479371972010-11-11T06:52:22.922-08:002010-11-11T06:52:22.922-08:00Join..

I would only do it if I was within 15 or 20 min away tops. <br />Your place even has an indoor pool which is what I would use. <br />I feel it's so worth it, if you will use it. I love being able to get to a gym/pool. We were going to the Y here in FL and it cost us almost $80 a month...so I think $40 is cheap!!Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02297424745531114629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224939955108013553.post-66549673084315680842010-11-11T06:26:14.758-08:002010-11-11T06:26:14.758-08:00I agree w/Eclipse...

But now where I live it is a short walk away. <br />I personally can't work out in the evening...because I wont be able to sleep...but my hubby can. So maybe workout at home in the evening to see if it will work, before signing. <br />I also see you are a daycare mom...maybe you can add a "gym" class to your daily routine. <br />Good luck on your decision!<br />- AngieAngiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16351968770358865366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3224939955108013553.post-79575071191318324372010-11-11T06:12:59.193-08:002010-11-11T06:12:59.193-08:00I've never joined a health club because I was...I've never joined a health club because I was always afraid I would just be wasting my money.
