    Add me! I work full time (let's face it, more than full time). My kids are 2 and 5. I also really struggle each week with balance, and I'd love to connect with some folks who get that leaving your kids during the only part of the day you get to see them is just not that easy.

    HI, anyone free to add me, I'm a working Mum (UK !!) to 2, aged 12 and 9 and work the equivalant of 4 days pw. My exercise comprises of running or walking the dog 3 days per week before anyone is up, doing weights 3 evenings a week after my youngest is in bed and zumba one night a week. The zumba is the only session I look forward to, but the others I feel good once they're done.

    It is hard to fit stuff in expecially when your children are little, mine are of the age now where they entertain themselves a lot of the time at home. :smile:

    Hi my name is Gen and I am the mother of four kids, 2 girls 18, 6 and two boys 15,10. They are the loves of my life. I have battled my weight since getting pregnant the first time 18yrs ago. My oldest daughter had open heart surgery at 2weeks old and my oldest son had cancer at the age of 5, needless to say I am an emotional eater. I decided on Jan 1st the get it together and get healthy. I lost 20lbs in the first month but am now on a platue, I want to lose another 10lbs by the 7th of march because I am having knee surgery and will be on crutches for 6weeks, I figure at best I will be able to maintain my current loss. Today I am starting a very low carb diet and I'm going to do that for the next week to shock my body back into weight loss. Other then that I am eating 1220 cals daily and walking at least 2 miles a day.

    I work full time and have 2 hour a day commute. So any exercising before my son goes to sleep would be talking away what little time I have with him. And after, I need to do so much around the house, and I worry about downstairs neighbors when running treadmill after 10 pm... But I am doing it now, but it's hard.

    I know exactly what you mean! I have two children..14 and 8. I work with a special needs client full time during the day! Then once I get home, I have to do stuff for my kids and wifely duties. So I have no time to myself! Plus if I do get a free minute to myself, I surely don't want to be exercising. lol. I guess I will find a way one of these days to manage everything. lol
