Looking to connect with other mom's that have busy lives\schedules. Trying to lose some baby weight while staying healthy and gain some strength as I start working out again. Looking to share recipes and get some support!

    I stay at home with my 2 year old. Would love more mommy friends :)

    Most of my recipes come from skinnytaste.com. I do a boot camp before everyone is awake two days a week and push the stroller whenever I can.

    I am a working mom but feel free to add me. I currently schedule my exercise into my day just as I would a doctor's appointment, etc. I am also trying to get my children into a healthier lifestyle. They are 5 and 2 so I'm hoping by starting young they will not know any differently, at least for a while.

    I work out of the home but firmly believe that SAHMs have a much harder job....you all just have more daytime hours to do chores than I do but you have to put up with the kids ALL the time.

    Feel free to friend me!!!

    I haven't added any friends here (I'm a bit private & shy), but I am also a busy stay at home mom, so maybe we could support each other!

    I think I am both a SAHM and a working mom. I work two 15hour evening/overnight shifts a week, so I am home with my kids everyday. I have 3 children: 7, 2, and 3 months. I just started back on MFP this last month, took a break while pregnant with my little one. Looking for friends for support.

    I'm a working SAHM, ha. I have 4 kids: 14, 11, 9 and almost 5, and I am home with them for the most part. However I do work while they're at school and a few evening hours when my husband's home.

    I teach 2 hours spin a week and 15-ish hours ballroom dance. Only my 2 spin classes and 4 group lessons are set in stone; the rest of the lessons I book are according to my own schedule.

    My other activities (while kids are at school) include paddleboarding and road cycling.

    Here are a couple recipes I just posted; very good salads, 1 of which I'm about to make :)

    :noway: This sounds incredibly exhausting but I'm kind of envious at the same time! You are amazing!


    I'm Christine - I work full time, school part time and a mom to a 7 year old boy. Luckily my husband does a lot (ok, more than a lot) around the house.

    I stay at home. I have a 3 year old and a 1 year old. I gained an excessive amount of weight with my first pregnancy...I don't even know how much...then lost some right before I got pregnant with the youngest, so I started pregnancy at 239 lbs. I gained 20-25 during pregnancy, lost it all and a little more and somehow gained weight this summer without even noticing. Maybe because I stopped breastfeeding? So now I'm back at 243 and hoping to lose as much as I can before I get pregnant again, and hopefully maintain a healthy lifestyle this next time around!
