I'm a 36 year old mom of two. I work full-time and am looking for some working mom friends. My current friends are supportive but I think a few friends that are in the same position in their lives and would have a few ideas on healthy quick meals (after being exhausted working all day), making time for fitness (again after being exhausted from working and kids - You can see where I'm going with this
- etc.) would be extremely helpful. Thanks :flowerforyou:

I do meal planning usually once a week on a day that I know I have some time. I try to build meals around whats on sale but it doesn't always work like that. I try to plan my menu so that a lot of my prep work coincides with another dinner that week. Also, I make large amounts of food so that I can freeze the extras for a quick dinner when I don't have the time to cook. I like to do dinner salads at least once a week too mostly for the health factor and also because there is usually little to no mess to clean up.0

Hi, my name is Julie and I just started this week. Already I'm swinging like a pendulum from healthy eating one day.. to old habits the next. I can see I'm really going to have to get this meal planning thing down to make this work. I want to lose about 40lb total, but have 20 as my goal in June. I'll take and give whatever support I can:D
Friend me too y'all!!!!0 -
I work full time and a mother of a sweet almost 3 year old girl. My son is 25 and lives with his wife, so I don't have to worry about him. So, I completely understand being tired and finding time to work out.0
-
I work about 30 hrs a week and have 3 kids (15,12 and 7). It can be hard sometimes to squeeze everything in. And then when I do workout I usually feel guilty for taking time for myself.

I work full time and am the mother to 3 sons (ages 21, 19, and 12). My two oldest are away at college, so I work my butt off to try and help them have what they need for school. My job is stressful and does require me to travel, so I do that as well.0
-
I'm in the same boat...I just turned 37, have two kids (10 and 6), and work full time. It's SO not easy to find any time for myself, but I try to squeeze it in where I can. I do all of my workouts at home (I definitely don't have time for a gym!) and I focus on what I eat...
Feel free to add me...I can totally relate!
