to the mom with kids who don't sleep.
Know that routine too well. I lived for 3 years with little sleep. BUT, I joined a fitness club that had day care. I booked myself, for mid-morning, with kids in tow. And I just worked out, no matter what.
I found that the work out helped me to: cope, gave me more energy, and helped me to actually sleep better. The daycare got my babies busy too and helped them learn to separate from me in a healthy way. I worked out that way, six days a week.
It wasn't about weight lose and toning then, it was about overcoming the stress of it all.
Put one sleep deprived foot in front of the other, put money towards a gym that would otherwise go to buying too many bad sugary snacks, and I promise you, within 10 days, you will feel better about yourself and your little ones too.
hope this helps.
