But I am grateful for exercise, I'm grateful that when I do take advantage of it and practice it that my body is moving, calories are burning, and probably a whole bunch of toxins are being released in all the sweating I do.  I'm grateful there are about a gazillion different kinds and types of exercise so I'm bound to find one I might actually enjoy someday!
