I have to exercise daily or else I gain 10lbs a day. I mostly just work out on my elliptical and a video here and there. When the weather is nice and I have no kids I'll go ahead and jog outside.
I take the dogs for a long walk or hike a few times a week. I try to do a 15 minute ab workout a few times a week and thats about it.
Quoting momo3fgr8tteens:Well I have been doing it for many years so it is pretty routine for me. My husband and I run together a lot and that helps a lot because he is a little more motivated than me. I also have bought all the kids a membership at the gym and in the winter they want to go so they can swim and play basketball indoors. That helps me with the yoga and weights. I have been kind of slack this month getting the kids ready for school.
Quoting mommaGof3:
I dont think I could keep up with that either! Lol
Quoting momo3fgr8tteens:I try to exercise 4-5 times a week. I run, do weight training and yoga. I do weights 3x a week and try to run about 4 and yoga 2x a week. I don't always do that well with keeping up with this schedule.

I think Chancey forgot that when I was pregnant with Chase I would come home from work and nap until he got there. Luckily, he's been taking Chase outside after dinner and I have been cat-napping on the couch for 20 minutes or so.
Quoting mommaGof3:
I hear ya girl! I would sleep all day when Jake was home. Or when I was pregnant with tatim and it was just me at my moms (dbag ex was in prison *eye roll) i would sleep all day and watch lifetime! Lol
Quoting cemcnair:
It's insane. I could fall asleep with my eyes open as long as my office phone would stop ringing!
Quoting mommaGof3:
I know that feeling all to well :-(
Quoting cemcnair:
Maybe. I haven't seriously started looking into it yet. I've been so tired, it's all I can do to get through the day without thinking about anything else :/
Quoting mommaGof3:
Oh no! Do they hold them at gyms or the ymca or something?
Quoting cemcnair:Quoting mommaGof3:
I loved the one I took when pregnant with Chase! I really hope I can find another one because the other lady moved :(
I live on the third floor, so walking up and down the stairs is pretty much all I do, along with hauling groceries. Plus I am usually walking up and down their stairs about three to four time daily since they boys are back in school! There is a gym here in the apartment complex, but haven't used it yet. I think once it cools down I will probably hit or try too. lol!
