You have shared each and every detail of your life style . Its good to see you have interest in cooking and baking with love for your children's and its good that you exercise even when it is painful and toughest ,
Exercising can be toughest when we are at our worse but I think its good that we are doing it on our worse time because it can help to ease our mind and it can freshen us up. More over it is good to move a muscle or too and not just stay at home lazy all the time.
Its good that you are motivated most of the time to exercise .
All success for the contest.
