    Hi!
    I also have two toddlers who are 11 months apart. What I have been doing is DVD circuit training (JIllian Michaels 30-Day Shred and a Jackie Warner workout) because they use the most muscles in a short workout. I use the DVDs Monday, Wednesday, and Friday because they have weight training and I have read that you should weight train every other day to let your muscles heal. On the other days I run. If you aren't a runner I would say put the kids in the stroller and go for a nice brisk walk. I have already lost 9 lbs doing this. Hope this helps.

    Welcome back! I have a little guy who keeps me very busy also. I'm currently doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred because the workouts are an intense 20 min so I can squeeze one in while he naps. If for some reason he doesn't nap---I make a game of doing sit-ups and push-ups with him and we go strolling day. Don't forget that mom activities like cleaning, cooking also count as exercise:)
