When I first decided to start this, I told my whole family and asked for their support, because I knew that I would forget, or be lazy and stop (it's happened to me b4, three times). My parents thought it was a gr8 idea and told me they would try to remember to remind me if I forgot. So far, I've even managed to get my younger brother to start exercising. Anyway, the thing that made this time a success was my handy-dandy calendar. I have a plain old calendar, where I write everything that I did that night (as in # of exercises and which ones). I try to be consistent and when I can, I raise my expectations to, say 75 sit-ups in stead of 70. And if I miss a day, I put a big fat X on the calendar. That's all, I hope it helps!
