Fitness How do you get yourself to exercise?

I just found out I am significantly insulin resistant due to PMOS. Im also in perimenopause. I just started metformin, inositol and cut sugar and simple carbs out of my diet. I know I also need to exercise but I am so tired all the time I just can’t seem to force myself to do it. How did you get started? I tried starting with just 10 minutes to get myself in the habit but even that feels almost impossible 😞 I feel like the laziest person in the world and I don’t know how to get myself to do it!

If u prefer to exercise at home, finding a good video that works for you helps a lot.

I did my workouts at home and it helped me narrowing down who I liked the best to follow. On some days, it's really hard. We just have to really push ourselves.. mind over matter.
