Single mom - Needs Support

Posts: 33 Member
Hi there,
I'm a single mom to a 5 yr old girl and an 8 yr old boy, two dogs and a cat...and I have my kids 95% of the time. I have very little support, none monetarily, and a couple hours on the weekend maybe to myself. I've been very busy these last three years and haven't had time to focus on my health. Consequently, I've ballooned up about 30 pounds. I'm looking for others that can motivate and be a friendly support network on this weight-loss journey.

Feel free to add me. After having our first child recently I have a new found respect for the hard work mothers put in and no way can any guy ever do that amount of work. To do it alone is even more impressive. Hope you can get on track and hit the goals you want!0

You have to put yourself first. It's not selfish to do so. Taking better care of yourself will mean you will be a better mom. Period.
I am a single mom and have my kids 100% of the time. I find the time to take care of me, first. I have to!!0 -
I am glad that you are here. This site is great for making friends and getting the support you need. I don't have kids, but I know that they can really keep you busy. I don't work due to being disabled for the last 4 yrs. But I do know that it can really keep you busy also. Please feel free to add me for support and motivation.0

Is your youngest in Kindergarten yet? If so, that is a whole day to plan on some exercise.. I take advantage of the time they are in school to work out..0

Feel free to add me, I have an 11year old, 2 year old and 8 month old and am a SAHM. I was a single mom with my oldest for the first year of his life but sometimes when I look back to everything we went through it felt like an eternity. I am all about motivation and support, whatever the cause0
