I would try to stay within the calorie goal MFP has set you for you that enables you to loose weigh by just cutting calories. If you can, take a book with you to read and go bicycle at the gym and study.0

I agree with walking on your lunch or breaks. Just to get moving around. Not always easy to do either but a few minutes can help. Otherwise, I have found that if I stick to my calorie goal, even without exercising or very little, I can continue to loose weight. It might be a bit slower but it still worked. I have been through a few periods where my schedule was just insane to fit in exercising.
Also, if you are able to, take the stairs vs the elevator at work (if there is one).0 -
Any of you other busy people who would like to add me as a friend please do. I would love to see how others fit exercise into their schedule. I have a two year old, watch another two year old twice a week and work evenings. I can't afford a gym that offers child care. I find it difficult to handle my schedule and get in work outs that would burn enough calories. I would love some inspiration on my home page!0

3 suggestions.
1. Buy a bike and keep it at work. Cycle 30 min a day.
2. Commute back home: get off early and get home in a way that is exercise.
3. Do HIIT, as that takes less time.
Good luck. I work full time, am studying for a masters, and have two small kids, and am on 24 hour cal 28 weeks of the year. Crazy! I get up early to work out, but 4:15 would do me in, so really, all the best.0
