Hi,

I am trying to find ways to fit in exercise as a working mom, eat healthier, and lose baby weight that I haven't been making any progress with. I hope MFP will make the difference for me. I have a 7-month-old and a preschooler. I know I could be making better choices than I am now. I give in to the stress and sleep deprivation and don't take care of myself, my priorities are my kids and my job. But now I feel like to be a better mom and be more focused at work, I have to be taking better care of myself and have improved well being and energy.

I'd love to connect with more people to support each other on this journey - especially if there are any other moms who can relate!

    I think we are already friends (from my earlier post), but I hear you!!! My kids are a little older than yours, but my story is the same. We can do this!

    Me! 2 little girls, a full time job, and a committment to fitness and health. I'll send you a request. You can do this!! (My girls are 5 and 19months.) And no nanny here! Hubby and I work opposite shifts. Chaos!! But we make it work.

    Thanks all!! Scoutli, my husband and I work opposite shifts too with no childcare. Chaos is exactly the word for it. But happy chaos :)

    If you like you can add me. I am 8 months pregnant with my first baby and hoping to get back on the dieting train once she is born.
