The most important

Now that I am a mother, I laugh at such lists. More sports? Because of my chronic lack of sleep I really don’t feel like it and I don’t have time for it. I run after my two-year-old twins all day, which luckily also gives me the necessary exercise.

I try to eat healthy, but I can really enjoy a bar of chocolate when I sit on the couch at night watching a movie. And when I prepare my kids’ favorite dishes, pasta with cheese or fish fingers with potatoes (yes, very high in carbohydrates), I just eat with them. Then no size 34.
