any stay at home moms:)

Hi! SAHM to a 3 year old (almost 4) boy and a 4 1/2 month old girl. I joined MFP to lose some weight prior to getting pregnant with my daughter and now needing to lose the pregnancy weight I gained from my son (kinda have it backwards, don't I?!?)

Anyway, anyone may add me if you'd like. I've got an open diary and am finishing my 3rd week of Insanity. Good luck all!

That would be me too. I'm a military wife, sahm of two girls, Lily 7, and Karly Ann, 1....i have held on to my pregnancy weight far too long and need too loose at least 30 lbs. Walking and the recumbent bike are all I'm able to do until Karly Ann is older. I love food too! So it has been hard to say the least....anyone on here, feel free to add me too!

I am a SAHM to a 6yr old girl, 5yr old boy, 3 yr old boy and 10 month old girl.

I lost 60lbs with MFP after baby #3 and now am back at it to lose this baby weight once again! feel free to add me

Hello, I am a stay at home mom. I am having a hard time losing weight. I havea 18 month old, if he is awake and i want to work out i can not.. he will run between my legs and try to hold on to my legs while i work out. so i wait till he napps then i work out. anyone have any tips for bumping up my fat burnig weightloss? thanks

For boosting fat-burning weight loss, I would do strength (weight) training--you can do this at home--3 to 4 days a week, and lots of cardio. You want to make sure you're building muscle, which will help you burn more fat, even when you're sedentary. Lots of protein, low fat/carbs in your diet. As for what to do about your sweet baby... my youngest is 1, and she *loves* her Jenny Jump Up. Absolutely loves it. If you don't have one (or he hates it), some other form of confinement would work. I know people who have purchased those indoor plastic pens (usually used for pets? NOT a crate, a large enclosure. lol ), so their kids can have space to move around and play, but still be in a safe environment while they do things around the house. They're not that expensive, I don't think. Otherwise, keep doing your workout while he's napping, or down for the night. My husband works nights, so on the days I can't make it to the gym, that option works for me. The kids go to bed, he goes to work, and I pop in a DVD.

As for the topic, I've been a stay at home mom for 7 years. My oldest is 7 and in school, but my other two are 5 (December baby, so still at home) and 12 months. All girls. I love it. They keep me on my toes. I go to a great gym that has excellent child care, so I am able to workout regularly. I have about 40-45 pounds to lose to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight, and I want to do it in as healthy a way as possible and set a good example for my kids. MFP has been so helpful in keeping track of my food and exercise! I love it! I've been on here for about a week. It's awesome.
