    Nice. Better than eating ice cream. Well, not really but more effective for weight loss!

    Hehehe! During most weeknights I do exercises while watching TV. I can be such a couch potato, so to feel less guilty about my love for tv I exercise to many episodes of American Idol, Modern Family, and even to the Food Network. Lots of core, arms, legs, stretching, and some cardio.

    Hey...not judgment here. Any movement is better then nothing. You are making an effort. That is a lot more then most do.

    Nothing to feel guilty about. I watch tv and movies while riding my bike ot doing the elliptical all the time. Multitasking is a beautiful thing. And its fantastic that your kids are learning the importance of exercise early. Kudos Mom.

    If I do 10 miles on the recumbant bike at the gym then I can stop for a "treat" on my way home :drinker:

    I always watch movies on my computer while I run/walk on the treadmill.

    Ticker says you are down 41. No guilt in numbers. Keep up the good work.
