How not to lose weight/get in shape

Rush out the door in the morning to get to the Zumba class that is free.  Arrive late, then wait outside for 10 min. because for some reason the door is locked even though there are people inside doing Zumba already.  Be grateful there are several other mom's locked out with you who actually know someone with a key that they call and go get the key from.  Finally get into the Zumba class and start working out, taking breaks every few steps to keep baby from getting into other people's water, cell phones, computers (playing a movie for the kids), and to keep him from following the big kids out into the hall.  Barely break a sweat, go to the store on the way home because they have some great deals on produce and we're trying to be healthy.  Run into a friend and plan to go to a spinning class tonight (no kids, actually break a sweat)--pass the donut case and remember that you forgot to eat breakfast because you were running out the door so fast and you are STARVING so you MUST have that big donut!!  Buy donut, eat it, feel worse than when you were hungry because of all that sugar.

Sounds hectic? I have never heard of Zumba. What is that?

Oh, the life of a mom! Don't feel guilty--at least you attempted to work out! And besides, all that craziness is better than sitting on a couch, so it still counts for something! :)

Oh boy, that's a morning. At least you didn't eat two donuts. :)

Sounds about right!!!! But the effort to get to Zumba and spinning class doesn't even happen around here. You are way ahead!!!!

At least you put forth the effort - mine consists of walking quickly between classes and running after buses!
