Motivation!?!

How does everyone get motivated to work out? I just can't seem to get my butt in gear with the exercise thing. I'm doing well with food and such, but I guess I'm just being lazy. :(

  • Well how's this for motivation - the more you work out the less likely hood of having the loose skin. I don't have much hanging skin in my arms and I think it is mainly because I focused on that durin

It's not hard to figure out..Hit the big orange "Record" button, then hit the "Start" button and start your walk. When your finished hit the "Stop" button, then save your workout. You'll do fine.
