    I'm a working mom, help an aging mom and help my newly widowed sister coparent her 2 young girls. I have a very supportive husband who is also on this journey but he is very busy with work and getting his second degree so I do a lot of the "home things as well".
    Basically I understand being busy and trying to make oneself a priority. I lost my way the past 8 years doing things for others ( it's the nurse in me) and forgot about myself.
    Last June I said no more and started MFP. I'm 1 pound from 50lbs lost thus far. I have 20 more.
    I work out 6x a week and strength train 3x a week. I've managed to get my sister, mother, husband, and all 3 kids involved and we all try to do active things throughout the week. We all talk about healthy living not just about losing weight.
    I welcome advice and tips to keep me on this great journey I'm on.
    Add me!

    Wow! Supermom! That is so amazing you have any time for anything including yourself. I know it is a balance act! Whew! And you have lost 50 lbs on top of all of it. Congratulations to you.

    It is hard but so glad Im on this journey now. I hope my son never remembers me unhealthy and overweight. If I can teach him we need to take care of our body by eating healthy and keep active-- I truly feel I've done a good job!
