The Fit Momz Fit Kidz Mission
Our mission at Fit Momz Fit Kidz is to bring health and fitness to the entire family.
So, why was Fit Momz Fit Kidz created?
Moms are the core of the family-often the primary caregivers to the children and often the one doing the grocery shopping, cooking the meals and choosing activities to fill the day. As a mom of a 4 year old and a 2 year old, I have struggled to keep health and fitness as a focus for our family. Before I had our first daughter I was in pretty good shape, eating healthy and working out consistently. I swore I would continue this after I had kids and be a good role model. After our first daughter was born I still did a pretty good job-I worked out a few times a week and we still ate pretty well. Then we moved to a new city and I became pregnant with our second daughter. My eating slowly deteriorated with my pregnancy and continued after she was born. My workouts slowly went from minimal to non existent. Things were so much busier with two kids! Meals needed to be easy and convenient which doesn’t always equate with healthy. And working out-where was I supposed to find time for that?!? Our second daughter is now 2 and while I have managed to lose most of my pregnancy weight, I am not where I want to be and we still don’t eat as healthy as I want us to. I often think back to the days before kids when I swore I would be that healthy role model for them. That is why we created Fit Momz Fit Kidz. We want to provide a place for Moms to come and get all the resources they need to become healthy themselves and teach their children from a young age that being healthy can be fun. On this website you will find articles to help you better understand the different types of exercise, recipes to help your family eat better and so much more. We also have our Fit Momz Fit Kidz DVD. This was made by real Moms who are working on their health and fitness journey and wanted something that could be done at home with or without their children. It is meant to help you get started in your health and fitness journey. We have lots of free resources on this page and will be adding more all of the time. We also have affordable membership packages that will give you even more information and guidance as we work to bring health and fitness to families everywhere!
In the beginning the idea for this website and DVD came because I was looking for resources to help me accomplish my health and fitness goals for myself and for my family. I wanted a place where I could go and get all the information I needed. I also wanted an exercise routine that I could easily do at home and could do with my kids, hence the DVD. I am at the start of my health and fitness journey for myself and my family so I am going to blog about what I am doing each day to move a step closer to that goal and the progress I am making. Hopefully my journey will help inspire you and help you along your own journey.
