I can also be a procrastinator so I don't always get around to all 3, every week, but I try. Each class is an hour long with warm-up at the beginning and stretching at the end so it's a full workout. I also try to throw in a walk on the Promenade every so often. My ideal would be to exercise 4 times per week - hmm, I'll get there eventually.

Now that I'm pretty in to it, I can't believe how I ever got by without exercise. Health and vanity aside, it's also an awesome release at the end of a busy work day...

Rox - Thanks for the encouragement. Im hoping to make it to 3 times a week one day :)

Emma - I am at Virgin Active - i think i will have to look into doing some classes- what classes do you do?

Firstly, I highly recommend trying some classes at the gym. Not sure what gym you go to but if it's Virgin or anything alike, classes are the best way to start you off and eliminate procrastination. It's how I went from 0 to kind-of-a-hero in a very short space of time. All you have to do is put on your gym clothes and rock up (that's all you need to commit to), leave the rest up to the personal trainer that takes the class. It's a lot of fun too...

Secondly, your mom sounds amazing!!

Last but not least, the quote is amazing. I discovered it on someone else's blog recently, can't remember who now. Made it my facebook status and got serious feedback attention from some lady friends. I've even had a friend copy and paste it on to her status for more exposure. It's really touched people - ah, modern woman we all aim to be!! Perhaps a Marilyn revival is in order? She was such an anomaly, smart in a street-wise way. Must try find an E! True Hollywood story on her or something because I know so little. Wish I could say the quote describes me but I'm a real softy, especially when it comes to love. Need to start being more Marilyn in my approach to it - I'm trying!

Hope you had a fab weekend! Mine has been as relaxed as you were planning yours to be :)

You'll get back into gym, just focus on going say two times a week, then three times and so on - and keep your goals achievable, then you will be able to slowly work you way up to where you want to be.

Great quote by the way, and interesting about your mom's Spain trip... that's something I could totally see myself doing, hehe. Both my parents are also away, in France though on something like a second honeymoon, it's quite sweet.

I just adore this quote, I've heard it many times before, but I've never realized how much it reflects my true self until today :)

The gym, I've tried and got both the t-shirt and GOKD embership. . .for never going! Wow, Virgin sures makes a lot of money by my doing nothing, I've been "meaning" to go for the last 4 years, lol *ashamed*

OMG you're a star! Going to the gym! I HAVE TO GO!!! I'm so depressed by how I look lately and I'm terrible at going to the gym without a gym partner. I think I should start doing Kickboxing again... believe me it works!!!! And you constantly have someone to push you to your limits... I love it!

Love the quote, I've heard it before. Mind if I post on my sidebar?

Good luck!

Wow - Your mom sounds like the real adventurer - I read a book on the Camino by Shirley McLaine and it sounds like an amazing journey. Hard but spiritual. I hope she has a great time.
I'm also trying to go back to gym, but going at 7pm just seems too late for me! Wow, you must have willpower of steel to do that! Have a great weekend.
