im a mother of two young girls, 5 and 8...and they are a huge reason why i changed my lifestyle and made taking care of myself a priority...
today, when i tell them to go outside they have strapped on their tennis shoes and told me they are going running...
so they go and run the street in front of our house, its a hill that leads up to a dead-end...
this has to be my greatest NSV ever, that my kids want to get out and get in some real exercise without feeling like its a chore or that they dont want to do it...
teaching my kids to be healthy and active is probably the greatest gift that i can give them...
to all the mothers out there, let this be your motivation to keep going and never quit, your kids are always watching!
ps. im sitting at my front door watching them run...so they are perfectly safe...

It's my hope that my 16 month old daughter, the inspiration for my life change, will want to do this as well.0 -
That is just....awesome. Brought a tear to this mother's eye. Congratulations!0

thankyou all...and almost an hour later they are still running up and down that hill...
the gift of health, wellness and a long life is probably the best gift that i can give my kids since ive struggled with my weight since i was in the 3rd grade...
makes my heart happy to know that by doing right by myself, im also doing right by them...0 -
That is awesome! Great work and great weight loss! I have been trying to reinforce this idea to my kids and it is difficult, good job, very inspiring!0

This is awesome, My 2 year old is my motivation and I hope we can do the same someday.0

I'm not a mom yet, but it definitely plays on my mind.
I loved seeing families running together when I ran my race back in September!
Great NSV0
