    I'm a mom to a 4 year old girl and I go to school full time and I work nearly full time in the summer. It's hard to get motivated and stay motivated when you have a family and work/school to concentrate on. When I am in school I have school work to do even if I am not in class so I try to work out early in the a.m. and pack healthy lunches to bring to school. I imagine as an attorney you have a lot of work to do in your free time as well. It's hard but it can be done!! good luck

    Full time working mom here too! Looks like there are a lot of us! Makes me feel not so alone (even though I'm pretty alone at work). My daughter is 8 months old and I'm an engineer (surrounded by mostly men who have stay-at-home wives/moms to take care of their kids)... Feel free to add me too!

    Trying to lose the baby weight from my youngest (who is 14)! Being a working mom sure does make it more challenging. I work for my husband (an attorney!), so I have a lot more flexibility than most, but it's still hard. I say the more friends the merrier, and you never know who is going to help you along the way!

    I'll be going back to work in 2 months time. My baby will be 7 months in a week and one day! I don't even know how I'm gonna cope, but I think I'll find it easier to lose weight at work, as there won't be food around me, as here at home I have loads of coffees and tempting icecreams. I hope to reach my goal weight before I go back to work, and once there only keep on maintenance.

    Except for the occasional take away or ice cream, I eat quite healthy, and I like to do my own food to my baby, I guess I'll have to cook for longer on Saturdays and make loads more food for him to freeze and have during the week. I don't know what chemicals are hidden in processed food so they last that long outside the fridge, so whenever I can I do them myself. Not the rare lasagna or pizza though!:D

    Hi I'm a single working mom and a full-time online student. Since my baby was born I have been steadily putting on weight. I'm really trying to find myself this time, being overweight affects so many aspects: Self-esteem (which being left for another woman doesn't help), energy, maneuverability, health, in general the quality of life. But I need support as I'm sure all of you do. It's hard when your so busy and junk is so much cheaper than healthy food... Feel free to add me.

    Hi, I am an RN as well and mother to 2 daughters ages 21 and 7. I have found it so hard to juggle being a mom, wife, house keeper, cook, taxi driver, etc and trying to exercise.
    Please feel free to add me if you would like! I need all of the motivation I can get :) Looking forward to getting to know all of you! Julie
