The Work In

This is my version of the work out, I don't like working out outside. It gives me to many excuses, to hot, to cold, to wet, to muddy and so on. Also I either have to stay close enough to hear my son or take him with me, he is to heavy to carry for a full workout which for me is about 40 min and our road is ok for a stroller but not if you want to get moving. 
So all that being said I work out inside. I do lunges, squats, push ups and lots of fast walking ect. I watch tv and play with my baby as I go. Sometimes my walking involves lifting my baby up and down over and over that's a lovely 10kg dead weight. So I make sure I sweat and I puff. I like working In I like the way it makes you feel and I like getting my energy up. 
I want to be fit and healthy for years to come. I am young but I am a little over weight and I want to get that in control. I want to be able to run around with my son when he is ten and more. As I have said I am pregnant and I look and feel like a walrus, of cause I look like a lovely glowing pregnant walrus. So I am not trying to loose weight while I am pregnant but I do want to keep my weight in check. 
This is my stance on people having kids. No matter your age when you have kids as long as you stay fit and look after yourself to the point you can play with your kids and give them all you have got then have them. I have seen 20 year olds that will only be 38 when there kids finish high school. They will still be young enough to do anything but instead they are putting on weight eating badly and not giving their young bodies the attention they deserve. I dont want to be one of those parents. I want to be running in my forties and fifties I want to be able to throw my grand kids up in the air not rub my back after I hold them for a few minutes. 
I think we should all vow to give our bodies the attention they deserve, they do a lot for us.
