So I'm saying--hey! I'm a SAHM of three--9 year old daughter and two boys--6 and 2! I recently decided to take a break from WW since bringing kids with to meetings hasn't been working for me and it's summer--so life is all about the kids! Hoping to use MFP to make the summer a little about me as well--and really USE it! That means doing the work! Time to get started. . .

    Hi there! I'm LeeAnn. Also a SAHM. I have 2 boys 11 & almost 6 and a 2 year old girl. Similar but opposite of you! Feel free to add me if you want.

    What kind of workouts are you doing? I just started a turbo fire/Chalean extreme hybrid. They are both really great.

    Thanks for replying! My workouts are very basic right now--walking outdoors and at the gym--treadmill, elliptical--run a little. My brother might hook me up with a friend working to be a personal trainer--I think that could really be the thing that get's me moving in the right direction. Have to start somewhere. . .

    Find something you enjoy doing and then look for other people on here doing the same thing. So far that has helped me finish two different programs and we're in the middle of our 3rd.

    You got this!

    Thanks for the tip. I hadn't thought of connecting to people who are working the same program, but makes sense. I've thought about trying C25K. . .
