[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^id like to add that in the summer I can go for a jog in the morning. But in the winter it's not possible.[/quote]
Why not? I have three kids. I work full time. I run outdoors in the mornings, winter or summer, rain or shine.
If you want to get healthy, then you have to commit to it, even if it's not fun sometimes. If it was easy, everyone would be fit. But making excuses won't help you get strong or healthy.

One reason I exercise and watch my weight is to show my kids that strong and healthy is the goal. I model the behavior I'd like to see in them. Getting out and moving is key.

So you run in the dark, on the ice. You are a disaster waiting to happen[/quote]

There have been about 4 or 5 mornings this winter when it wasn't safe to run, so I didn't. Otherwise, it's all systems go. I wear flashers and reflectors.
I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just pointing out that it's easier to make excuses than to do hard work. [/quote]

Oh, good grief.  Not pp but I have been known to get out every day, rain or shine, snow/ice/sub zero temps to exercise.  Every day.  But when my kids were little, that was just plain not feasible for me and I was a SAHM.  It wasn't so much a matter of not wanting to do the hard work (getting out and exercising would have been a BREAK for me) it was more a time/resources thing.[/quote]

+1. OP, focus on baby steps. With a 9 month old plus two other little ones, you should try your best to get adequate sleep. Then, look at your water intake. Are you drinking enough water? This also impacts your energy level. Next, cut carbs after 5pm. Baby steps. You get a pass for the first year postnatal. Forgive yourself for not having it together at all times (nobody does). Just commit to not gaining any further weight. Enjoy your kids youth and talk to your husband frankly about his comments. [/quote]
