When Do You Work Out?
Hi all, My biggest issue with weight loss/staying healthy is finding time to work out. I am a teacher, so I am on my feet all day, which helps, but I'm so mentally exhausted by the time I pick up my 4 and almost 3 year old.

How much do you work out in a day?
:smile: Hi - just wondering how much time does other working moms here spend working out? I feel like I can only do an hour and it's not enough.
