Put some music on and get those kids dancing with you! Play in the yard, catch or something of that nature, and just kind of keep moving all day. Eating fruits and veggies and drinking plenty of water will really help. Good luck!

Why not do something active with the kids? Go toss a ball around in the backyard or play tag or something. Go to the park and run races or play physical games like touch football. Or just go for a long walk. Exercise will help the kids too!
They make these little 'stepper' machines that are small and very portable, just two footpads that go up and down. If the kids are in bed, you can work on one of these while you watch TV.

put some music on and dance to it. take the kids for a walk. any movement counts as exercise and will burn calories. when you go out to eat, make a healthy choice. most restaurants have good choices on the menu.

lift weights or jog in place. Play with the kids. (play tag in the yard or something.) anything that requres energy burns calories.
(calories are just stored energy.)
