You answered no to question 2:

2. Have you made plans for a regular workout?

If you think you'll just fall into a pattern of exercise, think again. Starting a new fitness routine requires some advanced preparation:

-- Sign up for a gym membership or dance class, or map out your walking routine.

-- Purchase exercise clothes, walking shoes, free weights, fitness tapes or pedometers that you might need.

-- Find some motivating music to listen to while you work out.

-- Sit down with your Palm Pilot or day planner and schedule exercise into your day. Choose five days out of your week and one hour each day (30 to 45 minutes for cardio, time for stretching and strength training for each major muscle group at least twice a week). Write it in pen and you'll be less likely to schedule something else during that time.
