My reasons aren't that sophisticated. I want to lose weight. For the brief period that I had worked at my last job, I lost 9 pounds. I want to keep losing, but without an active job, that requires that I park my butt on the treadmill and go. I use the caloric count to set the time that I exercise for, starting at 100 calories and working my way up each day.
Today, I did it for 140 calories. The trick for keeping up with it, though, is to build it into my routine. I have a three-hour requirement for my day, and the rest is gravy. I clean for an hour, work out/shower in an hour, and study for an hour. (These are all minimums, of course. Some days I clean more, other days I study more, etc.)
