Lean Mommy

No, not me. Certainly not me. Not fat, but not lean either. :-)

Actually, this book, Lean Mommy, was sent to me by a publishing company and it's awesome!!!

As you know, I used to host a stroller exercise group, but with it being 100 degrees every day, I've stopped until we get some cooler weather. Can't wait!

As a mom, I really think a jogging stroller is the way to go. I love being outside and getting some fresh air, and this book is full of different exercises you can do with your stroller.

The book also is very motivating and realistic. It has reminded me that I'm not alone in seeing unwanted changes in my body. Other things I've tried just were not realistic. How can I be regular with an exercise video at home when my daughter is getting into everything? With stroller exercise, we get to go outside and she's happy (usually) seeing the sights while I do my thing.

The author also advocates a healthier life style through good eating habits, which is something I was Olivia to learn early on.

A must read for moms wanted to get fit!

Maybe I need to check out that book. We just started a stroller exercise group. We meet about twice a week, once inside at the mall, and once outside at a really kick-your-butt kind of greenway. Problem is that we're really just power walking with a stroller..not really doing much else. If you have any tips, let me know :).

I got this book and I have really enjoyed it. I have been a bit bummed because so many of these "mommy groups" are scheduled for stay at home mommies, which makes sens, but I just can't make it to them. So I go out with Tabby on my own after work and enjoy it anyhow. I did like that it didn't offer unrealistic quick fixes.
