Hello,
I'm not new to MFP but am looking for more mom/mum friends (depending where you're from)on here who can really relate to what we go through on a daily basis in trying juggle children with work, keeping a home and trying to keep fit too!
I'm a mom of 5, ages raging from 20 down to 4 and I work part time as a teaching assistant.
I've successfully lost just over 20lbs while on MFP but have been slacking as of late and could really do with some friends for support and motivation to lose just a few more pounds - but more importantly just to get back into living a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise.
When I used to exercise I was quite keen on jogging, cycling, walking, Chalean Extreme and Les Mills Combat.
Hope to speak soon

Hello. I successfully used MFP a few years ago, but I slacked off. I am now at my heaviest. I have three children. My oldest is eight and my twins are five. I have a very difficult time putting myself first so I need some motivation too! Let's just call it my New Years Resolution.0

Hi! I'm a mom of 2 girls ages 11and 7. I work 2 jobs and rarely have time for my husband never mind myself. I used MFP 3yrs ago and lost 30lbs and I've managed to keep that off but am looking to meet my all time weightloss goal of 70lbs this New Year. I received a FitBit for Christmas so now I can really keep track of my activity level. Hopefully the Fitbit and chatting with you ladies will help me get my motivation back on track. Feel free to add me as a friend.0

Hey there - mum and step mum here (love that you recognize both spellings!) I have three kids of various ages and stages (one bio and two step). I was doing really well for a while but now feel as though I have lost the motivation to really stick with it. I would love a couple of friends who would give me a kick in the butt when I need it and encourage me to be more vigilant and make healthier food choices.0

I'm a mom of 2 and work full time as well. I understanding the juggling and making time for yourself as well. I would love to help motivate you and have your help as well doing the same. I also have slacked off for way to long and need to get back into the groove. I had lost 20 pounds 3 years ago and now I've slowly gained 10 back. Friend request sent!0
