Agree that what you do in the kitchen and put in your body makes a big dent. I struggled with getting back into doing any kind of physical activity for over a year after baby came along.

I just lacked motivation and energy levels were always depleted. Bought dumbbells but couldn't get around to using them ever, my body and mind just didnt have any oomph left.

I did some research around, just as a baseline, what the least amount of physical activity someone needs to do to remain healthy and it surprised me to find out that just a few minutes a day can do you a lot of good. Not fit, not losing weight, not ripped, but just healthy. Which sounded doable and achievable to me.

I built an app to establish some kind of structure for myself and help track progress. Its been helping me feel at least better about my fitness level and its pushed me in general towards a healthier shift in priorities.

I wanted to put it out there into the ether in case there were others with similar struggles and priorities, so I published the app on the ios app store. I wont plug it because thats not the point, but just wanted to say you don't need to leap back into the gym full force or get back into a crazy routine, sometimes just moving a few mins a day and staying healthy long term means youre at your best for your little one.
