    Well, I'm a mom ... and whether or not I'm 'hot' is highly subjective :laugh: According to my DH, I'm smokin' :happy:

    I am fast approaching 30 and I want to be in the best shape of my life when I get there. I'm also planning on having another little munchkin in the next 2 years, which is another reason to be fit and healthy.

    As of now, I have a 17 month old cutie pie and she rocks my world.

    Right now I'm working out 7 days a week, three days a week twice, the rest just once. I'm not here to lose weight, but rather to gain muscle and to tone up.

    I got called a MILF for the first time ever, just a few days ago.
    Me too I had to ask what it meant:blushing:
    I think the person in question just needed to put his glasses on!

    I am trying to lose my preg weight still, 4 yrs later. I leave the howuse a 7 to get my son to school and me to work, dont get home til around 615 or 630. Then I gotta make dinner because my son is ravenous. Then, gotta play because son wont let me workout or read when he is awake. So a lot of the time I dont get to begin a workout until 915 or later. Last night it was midnight. It is exhausting and a lot of the time I would rather sit and read because I want to relax. Oh yeah, forgot about the housework that only I perform. It is exhausting and I am always tired. I tried the AM thing but working out in AM makes me tired all day, not energized. Tips on how to do it all would be wonderdul. :p

    I'm a mom, does that count? I have a 15 month old and am a stay at home mom. I really started watching what I eat and exercising at the end of July so I'm still new to it. I have been getting up at 6am every morning to work out and it was great because my daughter was waking up at 8. The last week she has been getting up at 7. :frown: I can NOT get up any earlier than 6. I was trying to work out during her nap but it wasn't working out well for me. I'm a bit OCD and we have 3 dogs so I use most of my "free" time cleaning. It's also impossible to eat when she's awake unless I feel like sharing. I think we should get an extra 100 calories a day to make up for the amount our kids eat of our meals.

    My husband got me a shirt that says Hot Mama on it when I was pregnant and I'd like to be able to wear the shirt. I also want to look hot for my 40th birthday at the end of December.

    Can you be "hot" at almost 41? I made time for exercise by deciding my husband, son, and I would all learn Kung Fu together. Best decision I've made in a long time - we get crazy fit, spend time together, and learn something cool all at once.

    Absolutely. And I hope much longer than that...I'm 52 and mother of 2.

    I completely understand! I have no magic way of making my workouts fit into my day.
    Luckily I am fairly spontaneous and I am able to just get up and start working out as soon as I see a moment available.
    My 4 month old just laid down for a nap and my son was completely into Nightmare Before Christmas. I saw the opportunity and jumped on it. I got a 75 minute elliptical run in. Now I have the baby sling on and we are all "cleaning together" lol
    If I make my 4 year old feel important around the house he absolutely LOVES to help me!
    I am also OCD... My house looks like its staged to be on the market 90% of the time lol
    I have no idea how I can find the time and energy to keep it that way, but my OCD must just take over lol
    I know it is hard but even if it means pushing a stroller while wearing a baby sling, I am determined to get a workout in. Results are powerful... If I see a little weight loss it's like throwing a can of gasoline into my fire for fitness :)
    I'm always here for support... Just add me :)

    I'm not hot, but I'm a dad and I'm trying to get healthier!

    BTW, I went to college in the Ohio Valley(Wheeling), always cool to see people from there on this site.

    I'm just a mom, will that suffice?
    My youngest is ten months now, and I'm carrying the baby weight then some.

    Getting a little hotter every day!:blushing: I am a mom of two beautiful, fit, active girls, aged 14 and 12. I work full time, and spend my after work hours chaufferring my lovelies back and forth to gymnastics and horseback riding. Meanwhile I have to try to feed them, keep house, and get my take home work completed. I started changing my habits around Easter after deciding that I had gained my last pound! I am now 34 lbs lighter and sooo much more fit than I was 6 months ago. I am very lucky to have a very supportive husband. He is :love: over the new me and I love him all the more for it!

    Oh, what your day is like? I've been counting my calories, and am just having a coffee before I hit the gym tonight. I dont want to lol I want to sit home and write, but unfortunately, writing and sitting doesnt melt pounds off your butt. Who knew?

    It's really about how you feel about yourself. Not what other do. People might think I am not "hot" but I don't care. There is at least one person who does and that is all that really matters to me.

    Don't what to be the guy who brings this post down. It's intentions were good.

    I think it's a common occurrence for moms to want to feel "hot". It can be a huge motivator when it comes to getting an out of shape, overweight, stressed mommy onto the treadmill.
    That said, everyone has different tastes, so no, it doesnt matter what others think of you. But, if you feel attractive, it does show.

    I am a full-time working mom and I have two kiddos (an 11 year-old daughter and 9 year-old son). For me, the goal is not at all about being hot, but rather being fit and healthy :smile: . I know for a fact that I am the strongest I have ever been and it feels GREAT! I love being able to do regular push-ups (no girlie knees for me anymore!) and to hold a plank forever!

    In terms of fitting it all in, I am lucky in two ways: 1) my hubby does 95% of the cooking and he is a GREAT cook, 2) I have awesome workout classes at my company every day at lunch time, so I get to do Bootcamp, Tabata, Circuit Training, BodyCombat, yoga, etc. I then supplment with going to the gym at least twice a week for BodyPump weight class and some more Combat.

    I think the key for us parent's is having a partner that will support you and making sure that you carve out that exercise time. It also doesn't hurt when you have dogs, because you gotta walk them everyday no matter how tired you might be! :yawn:

    My daughter loves to help clean too. She might be a bit OCD also, haha. She does help me work out too if I have to do it while she's awake, she loves to lay on me as I try to do jack knives and bridges. Nothing like helping mommy work out by adding 20 pounds to her. My biggest thing that makes it more difficult is my husband is not supportive. He doesn't understand that I'm trying to get healthy. He thinks the whole thing is silly and can't believe I get up early to exercise. He also doesn't help much around the house so it's as though I have a 1yr old, a 15 yr old son and 3 dogs.

    I do totally love seeing some weight loss. I know they say not to weigh every day but I do and even if it's 4 oz different it makes me smile and gives me more motivation to keep doing it. I was one of the lucky few that didn't have to do anything to lose the baby weight. I just can't believe how different my body is after having a baby. I really should have done that much younger in life, haha. I'm going to send you a friend request, I need all the support I can get.

    Me! Two daughters - one is almost 8, the other just turned 4. I've lost 76 pounds (see ticker, lol) over the past year and 5 months, and have about 9 to go until "goal" (or, just whatever my body plateaus at...). I work out and eat right to set a good example for my girls! I don't want them to think they need to starve themselves to be skinny, nor do I want them to think that they can just eat whatever and not be concerned. I exercise, and it's proven to be a good example to them. They both like to go with me to the lake nearby while I jog and they ride their bikes. They know that when Mommy slips on the workout clothes and the Vibrams, she's going for a run. My husband seems to be more attracted to me than ever (I didn't even know it was possible) and we've been married for 8 1/2 years. I run and lift weights, along with other calisthenics, about 4 or 5 days a week. It depends on what's going on, but I try to make time for at least an hour of "me" time to work out!
    For the first time in my life as a mother I feel like a hot mom! I know I've still got work to do, but I look and most importantly FEEL the best I ever have. I look GREAT for having two kids (finally) if I do say so myself ;).
