- To be healthy (lower blood pressure and reduce risk of cancer)
- To keep up with my kids
- To love myself and what I see in the mirror everyday
- To feel & look sexy for my husband
- To not feel tired & achy/sore
- To not be ashamed about my weight when I see people I haven't seen in long time (or even to post pictures of myself on Facebook)
But my #1 reason and motivation for losing weight is me not wanting my kids to be ashamed of me. I want them to be proud to introduce me as their mom.
I NEED to figure out when in the world I can get some exercise in. Ideally I would join a gym with an indoor pool and start swimming. I love to swim and that would be enjoyable and not feel so much like exercise. BUT, our budget does not allow for that luxury so I need to hit the pavement or dust off the Wii workout games and exercise videos. It's just so hard to find the motivation and energy to do that at 8:30 at night. What are you favorite home workouts?
Are you a mom that works full time? How do you get it all done? Cooking, cleaning, play time, exercise, intimacy? I can't figure out how to get it all in...so maybe someone can tell me how THEY do it. Remember, I. AM. POOR - so no cleaning lady, personal trainer, etc. Help a busy momma out and give me some ideas :)
