Fitting in Fitness

All I can say is being a working mom is no joke.  I have now been back at work for almost two months.  I absolutely love the daycare we are using for Mya, so I don’t find myself worrying about her during the day.  That is such a relief, but I do miss her terribly when we are apart.  I am finding that fitting all of my normal activities in each day is much more of a challenge.  Since I’m apart from Mya during the workday, I want to spend as much time with her in the evenings as possible.  This makes finding time to workout, clean, do laundry, and cook dinner much more difficult each night.  I’m still working on finding a balance.  I have been running and doing the Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred several times a week.  When I don’t feel like doing them, I remind myself that I am becoming a healthier version of myself for not only me but also for Mya.  I want to set a good example for her to follow.  With childhood obesity rates climbing as they are, it makes me wonder if more adults spent time getting healthier, would it trickle down to our children.  I want Mya to be active and healthy, so I’m determined to be the same.
