Exercise - motivate me!

My DS is 8 months and I'm still carrying that last 5 lbs to get me back to my pre-pregnancy weight (stupid 9 months on, 9 months off ). I used to walk in the evening but my hours changed at work and I get home later so it's looking like I'm going to have to workout in the morning to get it into my schedule...

Please share your stories of how you fit in exercise before work!! (preferably anyone's tips for getting motivated to get up at 5am i love my sleep)

Exercise - motivate me!

Lay out all your clothes the night before. Heck, sleep in your clothes if necessary!

See if you can find a friend who is willing to workout with you in the early am. It helps to keep you accountable.

Go to sleep early. Once you are a few days in, you should be able to establish a new sleep pattern.
It may also help to start off small so you can adjust to your new early wake up time (15 min earlier the first week, 30 min earlier the second week, etc)
