in Introduce Yourself
Hi guys. Being a stay -at-home mommy is very challenging when it comes to weight loss. I love staying at home but its hard to stay motivated. I lost 20 lbs 2 yrs ago and gained it all back. I wanna feel great by my birthday (july) and I have friends here but I need support and sometimes advice about just everyday frustrations. I dont have support in my real life and Im hoping to make great friends here :)

    Me!!! I'm a SAHM. Well, kind of. I do stay at home with my daughter, but I own my own children's clothing business, so I also sew 50+ hours a week. :)

    I'm a SAHM! I have two toddlers that are 2 and 3. I also have 2 school aged children that are 5 and 10. It's challenging trying to work out at home....basically I can only work out when they nap or at night after they are in bed. It's also a challenge to get them to take a nap! Feel free to add me!

    My sister would probably love you guys. She is doing this on her own for the most part. All of her time is spent looking out for the little one, which makes it hard for her to spend the time on her health.

    She's a dance instructor (Nia instructor) that loves company and misses getting out, I think... I'll have to convince her to join. :D

    I'm right there with ya!! I'm a SAHM mom to an almost 2 year old. I also have a 15 year old! I find it very challenging to get a good work out in at home. I wish I could join a gym that had child care, but it's just not in the budget right now. I lost about 30 lbs five years ago, but of course have gained it back. I'm turning 40 next month, and I'm ready to feel fabulous! Feel free to add me, I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone on this journey.

    Hi! I am also a SAHM. I find it challenging because I move between eating out of stress of taking care of 2 children and eating out of boredom when they are at school and I have nothing to do. I do not have any family close by and my husband travels most of the year for work so it gets lonely. Im hoping to also find some people here to help keep me motivated and sane! lol

    I am a SAHM as well! I have a 3 year old. My husband works and sometimes works late so I can understand how hard it can be to get your workout in. :) I have met my goal weight and am currently working on my goal body. :happy:

    I have a 4 year old and an 18 month old and we moved across the country when my son was little.
    I haven't really made any friends here yet, so I'd love all the support and friends I could get!
    Please feel free to add me!
