The title

I stared at the box asking "title of this blog" for almost a half an hour. As a mom and small business owner, I seldom find time to write, but it actually is a big passion of mine, and titles have always been important.

To me, StrollerFit is more than just an exercise program for moms and their babies. I struggled with post partum depression after my son was born, and joining StrollerFit was the turning point for me. It provided structure to my days, something to look forward to, a way to connect with my baby, and a great group of friends. Oh, and did I mention a great workout? I lost weight, toned my body, and felt better about the way I looked.

I used to feel shy promoting StrollerFit. But a colleague made me realize that every mom I see could be feeling just like I did at the beginning--sad, lonely, and bored. And if I didn't invite her to StrollerFit, that could be the worst thing for her.

Many people hear of StrollerFit and think, "Oh yeah, a bunch of moms walking with their babies." But to me, it is much more than that. It helped me feel like myself again.
