I totally get what your saying. i live in a small small community. If I want to go to the gym I would have to drive to it, so your looking at half hour to 45 min. And since almost every night one of the kids have some sort of activity its really hard.
now I could not sign my kids up to activities and use those nights to go to the gym, but how fair would it be for my kids then. And then its the cost, I really don't want to spend the money and gas to go.
so starting next week I think I'll join you at nap time and start some sort of excercise program. Its the only time I think I have time to myself lol! Also, it doesn't help that its been winter forever here otherwise I could go for a walk at night.
and purple bunny, I love food too. I think I eat pretty healthy most of the time, but its alot of it. I should acually follow canada's food guide (went to see a dietician last week with my guide group) and she gave out all sorts of stuff. I tried weight watchers, but I found it was expensive and somewhat really hard to follow. And I didn't have time to log and chart and count all day long.
I told dh that I would love to get a treadmill, I can walk on it when I want or run on it. We use to own an ellipticle machine but both of found it was way too hard on our body esp. on our knees.
sorry for going on and on, but I think as daycare providers its one of the hardest thing to do. We are around food all day, and with kids all day and our days never ever end.
