    I'm a SAHM of 3 ( ages 11, 9 and 7) and sub part time at school when they need me. Feel free to add me as a friend. Hubby is a pilot and in and out so most of the time I feel like a single mom!

    I'm a stay at home midwestern mom to a 17 month old girl. I don't go to an office everyday but I still seem to be the busiest person alive and still find it harder than anything to workout. I've got about 20 lbs to lose before I'm at my goal weight and would love some other stay at home mom pals to keep each other motivated. I'm absolutely determined to feel good about my body again!!

    I'm a SAHM to an almost 3 year old and almost 4 month old, both girls. I love working out and currently training for a triathlon and marathon. I can't seem to lose this weight but taking it day by day. Would love some more mom friends on here!

    I'm a SAHM to my two beautiful girls (ages 3 and 2 1/2 months). I lost 95 pounds between January 2010 and September 2011. Then I got pregnant with my second and somehow managed to gain 60 pounds during my pregnancy. So I'm now working my way back down and will hopefully hit my actual goal weight this time! Would love to connect with other mommies, feel free to add me.

    I am a SAHM, who rarely seems home somedays.
    My kids are older, though. 16, 17, 19. I homeschool them. (cus if they were that age and all in school, I'd feel weird saying I was a SAHM)

    Newly stay at home mom of a 9 year old and a 4 1/2 year old girls. Always busy and trying to fit in workouts. Would love friends and a great support system. This isn't an easy journey....kids make me fall off the wagon with them wanting to eat "kid" foods. I would love to know how everyone controls the urge to eat when they are eating...

    Feel free to add me!

    I just fed them healthy foods, too, usually. Or if I was tempted to eat a lesser healthy food they were eating for a meal, just made it a small snack for me.

    I am a SAHM to a 8 month old. When I go work out I pretty much work out by my self and doing this by my self. Husband comes with me to work out on weekends, but since he is in the army its pretty tough. Feel free to add me if you like :)

    Busy mom = me.

    I work from my office two days a week, sans kids.... they go to daycare twice a week.

    The rest of the week I work with them, either at home or in the car. My job requires that I check houses weekly, which involves about two full business days of driving. It's exhausting. Mostly mentally - because my son believes he is starving constantly, and after about three hours the boredom sets in completely and the bickering starts. Sometimes I get lucky and both fall asleep at the same time. WIN.

    I've just added my husband to my "team" - so now there are days when literally all four of us are crammed in the car together. It is maddening.

    I work all hours of the day/night when work gets busy, and my workouts sometimes get pushed back. But I'm doing a 53 mile bike ride in two weeks, and I'm kind of toying with the idea of doing a century ride next year - if I can find the time to train for it!

    Well I'm a SAHM to a 13 year old boy, a 3 year girl (who thinks she's 13) and a 1 year old boy. It's nice to see so many inspiring moms out there. I just started this MyFitnessPal it hopes that it will help me out of my slump and get me going.

    Gained most of my weight from my first child and just when it was starting to disappear the blessings of two more children and well more weight followed.

    Just did a secret walk/jog around the track by our house last night, cuz my husband saw i needed to get away... not much time to work out and with no one to help with the kids unless the Hub is off it gets kind of hard. i'd love to hear ideas? ?

    I'm a SAHM and a WAHM. I run a home daycare so I'm home with kids all day long. My own kids are 6.5 and 11.5 years old but my daycare croud is 4 and under. It's hard to find the energy to workout after spending 10 hours working with kids. I try to do my strength training/cardio during nap time but that dosn't always happen :frown: Anyone can feel free to add me as a friend if they'd like :smile:

    I am a SAHM to a 15 month old little girl who likes to keep me on my toes but still finding time to work out has been extremely hard. If I try to workout at home she is hanging onto me during so I joined the gym which has a children's center that will watch your child for 2 hours a day so I have been taking advantage of that :)

    If anyone would like to add me please feel free!

    From the very beginning our kids eat what we are eating so they don't know any different. My husband and I want them to grow up very educated about health and nutrition.

    I work full-time and take care of an 8-month-old when i'm not at the office. I sit behind a desk all day long and find it hard to work out when i want to spend some time with her. By the time she goes to bed, i am exhausted and usually head there myself!! My job has started a program where a trainer from the YMCA comes in 2x a week after work for an hour. It's awesome!!! My mom or my husband will watch my daughter & let me go. I've also been trying to take the time to walk around the mall on my lunch hour. It's mostly deserted and a lot of the little old people in town go out there to walk because it is well-lit and you aren't exposed to the Tennessee weather. I need to get my butt into gear and commit to losing this baby weight!!!!
