#43: One thing tired mums should stop doing to stay consistent with exercising

After my pregnancy I was so impatient to get back to exercising. I was fed up with my mummy tummy and the lowest fitness level I had ever had. I didn’t feel good in my body.

I hardly ever follow recipes and most of the time my food is delicious (except from a few incidents when it was barely edible 😊).

I don’t want to feel like that anymore. I love the human body and I want to start loving my own body. Will you join me?
