    Daily Burn is also really good, you get a free month trail and they suggest a program for you and then its $12/month thereafter and you get the entire selection of their programs along with the Daily 365 workout.

    I work out with Fitness Blender videos during my baby's naptime while my older two kids watch a TV show. Love, love, love Fitness blender! I've lost 80 pounds and I'm in awesome shape.

    Fitness Blender is awesome, if you aren't looking to spend a dime.

    Give them a look

    I'm a stay at home mom, with two kids 3 and under. I've been briskly walking for 30 minutes or so in front of the TV, which works but I wonder if it's enough. quote]

    I'm not a stay at home mom, but I've got two little ones at home and I can't fit in any exercise's outside of home. I just use my elliptical or treadmill while watching tv, for only 15-20 minutes every night (although my workouts are pretty intense, so I get a pretty good calorie burn). Then I do a few push ups and come crunches. And I have managed to lose around 18 pounds since the beginning of January! So, I think what you're doing is just fine....it's better than nothing!

    Keep it up!

    Go for long walks with the kids. Get a stroller if you need to, or a double stroller, or a carrier. Buy a treadmill or stationary bike. Get a neighbour teenager to watch the kids a couple of hours twice per week so you can join a gym. See if the local pool, dance school etc have classes for parents and kids, or classes for kids at the same time as classes for parents.

    Another vote for insantiy or t25. I'm a mom with 2 at home with me and have completed both. I started with insanity - most people say to already have some fitness before starting, I didn't, it's hard but if you like challenges that's the way to go - T25 is nice because it's shorter & better if you're just starting out & not prepared to push gurus led through insanity. You can buy right from Beachbody or check Craigslist or eBay, you may be able to find it cheaper.

    This year is going to be interesting though. My oldest is too big for the double stroller and probably too little to walk the 3 miles to the one park, play and then walk 3 miles home. We might try the closer one and see what happens.

    Try a wagon? Kids like them and it will be extra exercise for you.

    Another vote for a wagon. @BrittanyJenAnn can you get both of your kids into a double stroller?

    Yes, my 3 yr old hasn't yet realized she could probably climb out. :D we've been using that a lot lately.
