I exercise, but I don't *love it*, so I didn't mark down any answer to the poll. What helps me is to have a specific time of day set apart for exercising. Then the momentum of that schedule is what keeps me going. If I miss a day because of illness, it is just a bit harder to get back into the routine. Miss two days and it is a LOT harder. That fact alone keeps me from missing any days unless absolutely unavoidable.

I also believe in the benefit of productive methods of activity such as cleaning house and gardening. Yes, I did say *cleaning house*, although an extended effort this past week almost wore me out. I can't really say that I feel better because I exercise, but I suppose I could say that I might feel worse if I didn't.
