    Not quiet 30, I'll be 29 next month, but I am a working mommy and I HATE it!!! My son turned 2 in January, I'm working as a school nurse, I was home with him for 19 months while my husband worked, came back to work, hours are great and summers off, but nothing like being a stay at home mom. Last summer we were jogging/walking 3-4 miles a day (with my son in the jogging stroller). The weight literally melted off, now that I'm working, I don't even have time to clean my house, much less work out!! I have gained about 7ish pounds since I have been working, (about 7 months) and feel disgusted and lethargic, I have more flab than fat and I'm trying my best to eat right and tone up but I am definitely a stress eater and I am stressed out often and chocolate and sweets are my super weakness! I need motivation to get back to my 124 pound weight, I am like 130 now...I really want to look good again in a bikini and get ready for summer.

    I'm a full time single working mom of a three yearold ballerina. I'll be 35 next month. I love to run and have 2 half marathons planned for this year. I have to do a lot of my training on my lunch hour at work to take advantage of the fact that my daughter is in daycare. Always looking for new friends.

    RunnerElizabe congrats! half marathon?! wow.... i did 10k in Oct2011 and i think that is my max distance. 5-10k. This Oct i'll try it too, we'll see how much my condition changed over 2 years :)

    I'm waiting for spring to come, to start running again. Can't do it now because it's to cold/moisty/windy for my sinusitis and asthma. It's about 32'F here (0'C) and snow so .... you know.... lol.... In a week or two they say it'll be warmer, soooo i'll wait just a little bit more :)

    Well, I'm ALMOST 30, and the mother of a 6 and 3 year old. I work full time, go to school full time, and be mommy full time. Now, I'm trying to fit "me" time in and get healthy at the same time. Add me to friends, I could use a good support group!

    MommaChocoLat You must be an amazing woman to raise 5 boys ! :flowerforyou: (+husband it makes 6 lol) I'm sometimes fed'up with my 2boys , and 5 ?! and working night ?! where do you get strength for all this woman ! lol

    My older son has astma and ADHD , we just got out of hospital after 2 weeks (major asthma attack). And younger (6) is just puuuure silver..... i got him today at 5pm from preschool and he was like on "something" .... where do these kids get power from ?! tell me , because i could use some too :happy:

    I was looking today at work at films about p90x effects.... aaaaand i think i'm gonna try it instead of Turbo Fire. If it'll be to hard i can always go back to TF.

    Sorry, I just now saw your response! Just got home from work.. half the time I have no clue how I make it through the day lol. I have a lot of help. My older boys and hubs have been helping a lot since I started working. But trust me it's no picnic! My 10 yr old also has ADHD as well. So I know how that goes too.

    I'm with you girl. I just turned 30 and have 3 kids, age 6, 4, and 7 months. I work full-time in healthcare IT. It's a busy life being a working mom, but I couldnt imagine life any other way. I can use all the encouragement I can get, and will share it with you as well!
    Have a great day!

    I'm a 32 yr old, new mama to a 7 month old and trying to lose 10-15 lbs. Sigh. I work 50+ hours a week and am having the hardest time trying to find not only time, but the energy, to work out and eat right. I just want to nap in all honesty.
