Used to be very athletic (pre-children) so am hoping to achieve my goal whilst getting fit as well (not just skinny - although the thought of slimming downn is very exciting). Mostly want to be a fun fit Mum whose energy can match her children's. xxSteph

Awe, plus he did great covered a lot , his favorite was treadmill and kickboxing, finally row machine. He's going tomorrow. Kids r amazing.

My daughter is 4 and VERY active her favourite is to go for a bike ride with me or go to the park and play football. My son is 15mths and has just discovered the joy of movement and is everywhere and into everything!! Its finding time outside of them and my full time job to get proper adult exercise is my main problem. Maybe you are on to something and I shouldn't be so upset about not getting time away from them to exercise but instead to exercise with them!
