I didn't see that you have any weight training in her workout. Does she do any weights or body toning?
It is really hard to manage a career and a family. No offense to any of you men out there with kids, but I think that us women take the owness of parenting upon ourselves. No matter how much help you guys contribute to the raising of the kids, it mostly 75% falls on the mother.
Not to get off topic, but this is part of why many women find the excuse to say they do not have the time. I have a hectic career and I run a household, but I still manage to hit the gym for 1 hour.
Have your wife set aside some time on the weekend to prepare her meals for the week and freeze them. This way she always has something to eat.
She also seems like she needs some motivation possibly from a female view. Print a picture of a woman in good shape, NOT a Babe Watch Babe, but someone that will motivate her to want to look the same. Also take a picture of her now and post it whereever she can see it to remind of her why she is doing this.
Its a tough world, but getting and staying fit will also make her a better wife and mother!!.
Good Luck!!!

Ya Along with her 1hr cardio she also does weight training, with free weights,
so she does everything from bench press incline decline, also DB workouts, lunges, I try to make her hit every body part as much as possible. She does a full work out like mine except with less weight. So it's kind of a slow process for her but she is making improvments. Ya I hear you about her managing the family, she has her hands full, but we always make time somehow to hit the gym, She just gets frustrated sometimes. I would help her out more but my work day usually consists of 14hr days. 6 days a week!!!!!!! So time is the issue. Will try about the whole picture thing, Don't know if she'll buy that but it might work.
