“Don’t You Wish Your Mum Was Fit Like Mine?” Teenage Daughter Gushes Over Her Fit Mom

We’ve often heard of parents being proud of their children’s achievement or simply being who they are. In this case, a daughter who is proud to have a fit mom lovingly pens her thoughts.

She writes, “With her fit and youthful look, who would guess my mum is over 40 and I’m the last of her three children? I’m always so proud when she meets my friends and their parents, most of whom can’t help paying her compliments. Some would even ask what her secrets are in hushed tones. It makes me so proud of her.

My mum works very hard every day to stay fit, and my dad says she’s always been that way. She runs for at least 30 minutes daily, and returns home for a round of short exercises which she says helps to tone and strengthen her core muscles. I think it’s one of the secrets to her flat tummy and firm body.
After her exercises, she still treats us all to a nutritious breakfast, packs our lunch, and most times, drops my brothers and I off at school before heading to work.

She also says watching what and how one eats helps with staying healthy and fit. I no longer wonder why the content of my lunchbox, for instance, is so different from that of most of my friends’ at school who always have fried foods, noodles with little or no fruits and vegetables, pastries and soft drinks. Her love for varieties of healthier foods served in small portions has influenced what and how her family eats too. But mum allows us to indulge in fries, ice-creams, pizzas and burgers once or twice a week.

My mum is also an active member of a fitness group at the sports club. She says every member has their own fitness goals and that’s why they have sub-groups with different instructors.
I often hear her tell other mums, ‘It’s become a lifestyle – it’s hard work but worth it.’ My dad always says she is and will always be a sweet 16. Who wouldn’t want a fit wife and mum like her?
