Hey in 19/f and I'm 5'7 and weigh 144 lbs. I want to become more in shape, tone up my legs mostly and start eating healthy. The only problem i have is that i have no motivation at all to exercise. When i get home from work i'm always too tired and have other things i need to get done around the house. Can anybody give me any encouraging words of advice to make me want to exercise? Also is there a certain exercise routine i should stick to and how long should i do it and how many days a week? Anything would be helpful! Thanks everybody and i do rate.

Hello Ashley,
I know a lot of people who feel the same way you do. If you are to tired then you have to keep a journal of things that must get done and do them. This time include exercising as one of them. Also you may look into doing interval training as this form of exercise only takes about 20 minutes to complete a full workout. Interval training can be done on a treadmill, elliptical or outside. I suggest running stairs if you live in an apartment building or close to a track with bleachers. here is a great article with a routine Running stairs
You can also look at changing your diet since at 5'7 and 144 lbs you shouldn't have that much weight to lose. Simply making some changes in how you eat can affect you more than working out. The amount of calories you put in makes a big difference.
