Health knowledge made personal

I belong to my local mothers of multiples club, and while I rarely attend the meetings or the sales, I always open the daily emails containing the digest of posts on the message board. More often than not I don't have any wisdom to impart on new mothers whose topics often include: Those are all expected and I don't read them to get vindication for having survived it all (maybe a little). I read them for the gems that pop up every now and then: My favorite posts have included: Entertaining, no? Every now and again a post comes along inquiring about the how, when, why, where on exercise with so many kids and so little energy. I am always happy to chime in then, because that's the only subject matter I do feel I can provide value (since my babies don't sleep and they still play naked games). But last week, when someone asked about the validity of the Sketchers Shape Up shoes, and this answer came back, I just didn't think I could add a thing (without being ridiculously sarcastic). It said: Doesn't that remind you of those diet pills that require you to take them three times a day on an empty stomach and not to eat anything six hours before bed time? You will shed pounds instantly! I guess we are all ridiculous in our own ways. I might have ever so slightly complicated my life now that our go-to babysitter, the Wonder Teen, is my running partner. Last week I needed a babysitter so I could go run with another babysitter. Hmmm.... Please share your latest ridiculous fitness moment so I can feel better about myself! |
