[quote=Anonymous]I work out 6-7 days a week. With a 3 yr old and 6 yr old, I can only manage 30-60 minutes at a time. Both DH and I work full time. I have a flexible job, short-ish commute (and make do with our small, outdated house we could afford with a good commute). I consider myself lucky to have a flexible job that values work life balance.

Some days my workout is a short run (3 miles). Some days it’s streaming Fitness Blender on YouTube (a life saver for people with kids who can’t always leave the house), some days I work out on my lunch break (place o work at has a fitness center). We just got a dog and that’s really helping me get out before the kids wake up for a quick run. I invested in a double jogging stroller so sometimes my workout is running my kids to and from the playground. I have a lot of options so I can do something that fits into whatever I have going on that day.

If pressed for time- streaming workout videos on YouTube is great. Just commit to 20 minutes to a half hour and work up from there.

I log my food to make sure what I’m putting in my body is equal to or less than what I’m putting out. I eat at home most days of the week. I cook simple, healthy meals my whole family will eat. Gone are the days the kids ate different food than DH and me. If a recipe has over 7 ingredients I’m prolly not gonna make it. [/quote]
