Hey All,

Just got off the cross trainer after 25 mins - a little disapointed as I missed my morning excersise time ( hubby leaving for work trip, and appointment after school drop off.)
I try to aim for 40 mins cardio a day, but this afternoon only got the 25 done, the kids started to get unruly and fight so I had to be a responsible parent and referee ;-) then a I just lost my mojo!!!.
So doing something is better than doing nothing right??
Anyone else have times like this?

    Something is absolutely better than nothing! I think many people's motivation goes through ebbs and flows. Ups and downs. Be proud of yourself!

    you burned calories breaking up the fight too and the other stuff parents do like cooling and stuff, the 25 minutes was great

    Chasing kids should count for something to....can you get them involved in a walk or something ?:
