Reply #3: Normally I hit the gym at lunch

[4_Legs_Good]

there's not much time in my day otherwise to work-out. I have a long commute (1 hour/way) and two screaming kids when I get home, so it's really hard to work in much time other than at lunch. So, if for some reason, my lunches are taken up, there's not much I can do.

I could probably, however, sneak in like 10-15 minutes of exercise time at some point - or, oh please no, wake up an hour early (5AM) and work somethign in. I actually have a Bowflex, a dip/chin-up rack thingie, and a significant amount of dumbbells at home to work with. What I really want is like a 10 minute/day maintenance routine that will help me keep from losing much on days I can't make it in for a real workout (well, as real as I get).

Thanks for the tip on the Creatine!

Oh, and what about when I'm sick. With 2 kids in preschool I get hit with colds regularly. Should I still try to workout? They usually knock me out for 2 weeks at a time, and that's enough to make me drop 5 lbs easy.
