New here, downloaded the app on the 20th and first time on the site! Feel free to add me too!! I'm a 30 year old working mom to a 3 year old! My husband travels for work, so it's just me and my daughter half the time! I'm trying to get the exercise in during the evening (Just Dance on the Wii with my daughter) and thinking of starting the 30DS tomorrow after she goes to bed!! I envy all of you that can find the motivation to get up in the morning. I'm not there yet, but maybe some day!

i do the wii too. just dance 2 and 3. i bought 30DS but haven't tried it yet.

I am a working mom and struggle with this weight loss/change in diet and exercise thing every day. Feel free to add me as a friend. I'd also love to have some "working mom" friends.

NOT a working mom, but might as well be! I have 4 kids at home and am in school 3/4 time, so finding time for just those two things is hard, let alone healthy eating and exercise! Feel free to add me...I am looking too!

Feel free to add me. I am 32 and a working mom with a 13 year old son. My husband travels constantly so it's just me and him most of the time. I get up at 5 every morning and work out at home with p90x at 5:30am. It works best for me because everyone's asleep which gives me ME TIME! Sometimes it's nice to focus on yourself when normally you are focused on everyone else.

Hi! I too am a working mom (and gramma). I work more than 40 hours per week plus a minimum of 2 hours a day travel time..... I have a GOB of kids! 3- mine (13,18,21); 3- his (22,20,10); 1- soninlaw (23); and one awesome darling grandson (1.5) ... who will surely be the next president of the United States!! My biggest problem is my passion for all things yummy! and aversion for all things requiring exhertion!! I will 'add you as my friend' gladly!
God Bless all the Hot Mamas!!! Let's do THIS!!

Hi everyone, I'm open to new friends for mutual encouragement and support. I'm a working mother too and much of my job involves sitting on my beee-hind in meetings, in the car, or at my desk. I have a 7 year old daughter and a 3 year old son. I regained about 8 pounds in two months after starting my new job, and decided it's time to do something about it. I joined a gym that's very close to work/ home. Sometimes I'll leave work at 4:30-ish and do a short workout before picking up the kids. Usually I go home, fix dinner, then go back to the gym while hubby puts kids to bed. I also try to find time to walk around the block for 20 - 30 minutes on the days that I don't go to the gym. Every little bit counts, right?

Feel free to add me every working mum! I am 33yo working FT with 4yo and 1yo.

Working mom too! I work 3-12 hour shifts a week. My son is 6! Add me if anyone is interested!!

sassika

Feel free to add me,too. I am a working mum - 40 hours a week and got two teenage boys. I plan to get my bum of the settee and start using the app - couch to 5k from next week on, lol. Not looking forward to it as I am very unsporty to say the least. But plan to do a fun run end of march and I really want to jog/ run it all the way.

NCShar

working mom here too... I am 42 and have two young girls (2 & 5). Would love to connect with others in the same boat!

I will have been on MFP off and on for a year in March and have lost 6 pounds but know if I were more consistent... and how difficult it is to be consistent with young ones running about... I could do better.

Would love to create a group. I am happy to create it and will invite everyone that responded to this post. Is anyone else interested?

I'd love to join a group if you start one!

Hi - I'm 25 and I work full time as a department store manager so I do find it hard to find the time and energy to exercise!

lmgroszek

Feel free to add me if you'd like. I'm a full time working mom and have a six (almost seven) year old son and a three year old daughter! It is an exhausting journey, but I want to have energy to play and do fun things with the kids; not just sit around which is what we mostly do!!!

Sharita0427

I too am a working mom. I have two little one (6 & 3) and Lords know I can't keep up. My job is demanding and requires me to sit at a desk all day. Feel free to add me. I most definitely could use some encouragement and support.

Christie0428

I am a working mom too (to an awesome 15 month old) and I could use tips from other moms who succeed at finding time to work out while being with their LOs. I've been logging cals on MFP for a week now and so far it seems easy and I am already seeing results so I've motivated to keep it going! For the first time in a long time my previous low weight seems like a real possibility again! I could use other mom friends to help me with suggestions on how to fit exercise in while spending time with your little ones.

Weird that the original poster of this thread is now an inactive member.... at any rate feel free to add me as friend.

Ahh - I didn't realize that the OP was a year ago ... that makes more sense

Working Mom here....30 yrs old, have a 6 yr old boy and a 9 yr old stepdaughter (summers only). Life is crazy with my son being in kindergarten and introducing homework into our lives has been a challenge. Things don't always go so smoothly and homework battles can interrupt work-out time.

I'm down for any new friends that want some support and encouragement. We can do this!

jenpru3

Hi! I have 2 girls, ages 3 & 6.. Its a struggle to find time for myself and them! I would love a few friends who face the same challenges , trying to find time to meal plan AND workout while working, running a home and a family.

Feel free to add me, and anyone else looking for the same!

CaliSteph

I have a 3 month old, a 2 year old and a 13 year old stepson. I work in the event business so I have quite a few times when I'm pulling a 12 hour day plus feeding, changing, and trying to spend quality time with all the kids. Somehow I have to fit in a workout. I have a great, supportive husband though so we tag team quite a bit.

Feel free to add me and anyone else who might need support.

reyna99

Momma of 2 and I sit behind this desk, day in and day out...lol

I've come to LOVE my ME TIME!!! I'm a better wife, momma, friend & person because of it!

Feel free to add me!

I am a working Mom of 2 daughters and I work 2 jobs. 2nd one being almost full time also:noway:

With my busy life working my fulltime day job, and then teaching at a University in the evening I can struggle to get in workouts and eating the best.

Feel free to add me for support.

I am a working mum, I do find it hard to fit the gym in as sometimes I don't get much sleep with the little one and is so tired after work and then have to go pick up my little girl from nursery that I'm too tired to do anything. But I am determined to start back at the gym from Monday and go after work and even go to some classes!

MariaLivingFit

Full time working mom of a 2 and 4 year old. I workout in the mornings before work and before the kids are up. I try to eat clean and my goal is to lose some fat (~ 10 lbs), but also gain muscle in the process, so I've been focusing on weights and moderate cardio. Feel free to add me for motivation/support! :-)

Willkathmum

I am a working Mum to 2, a boy 12 and a girl 9, I'm 80% full time. I find fitting in exercise tough but like others do it first thing in the morning before everyone gets up or in the evening. We have converted our garage to be a small gym or use DVDs so don't have to go out other than for runs that I tend to do at 6 am. Feel free to add me

Frostygirl2790

Hi 47 year old mom, new to MFP and finding it hard to find time for exercise, or should I say motivation. Looking for support to help me with the life changing life style. Second time around for the weight loss and want to make this my last. Feel free to add me.

Iron_Duchess

Hi! I'm also a working mom. I have a 6yr old son and a 4yr old daughter. I work from 7:30 am to 4:00, So I exercise after they are in bed, kitchen is clean, and lunch boxes are made, between 9:30 and 10:30p.m. I'm doing a program that uses bodyweight and bands every other day, and walk for 30min on days in between. I've been active in MFP since the first week of September but still need to add some friends, so feel free to send a request.

Hi I'll be 42 in just a few days, work full time and have 5 year old twins. I find it very challenging to find time to work out! Feel free to add me, I need all the motivation I can get.

danacg1

You sound like me! I am 38 and also a working mom. I work a full time job during the day and am home by 4:00. My husband is just walking out the door at that time to go to his job and he doesn't get home til an hour before I have to be at work the following morning! Our son is 7 and it is VERY hard to find time to myself to exercise. I have tried the Wii Fit and that is hard to get a long steady workout in because my son wants to "take his turn" right when I get going. I try to walk on my breaks at work, weather permitting. So add me, I need the support as well! LOL

prtvera

I'm 38 years old with 3 boys, 15,14 and 11. One of them is Autistic and require a lot of my attention. I work full time as a Manager. My schedule is crazy between work, cooking, cleaning, homework, sports, diet, exercise and working on not smoking. It's been 3 weeks since I had a cigarette. I love to eat! lol I find that I am motivated to find the time to exercise just so that I can earn more calories so I can eat more. Add me I can help motivate.
