Struggling to stay on task...

I started off awesome! Lost five pounds (in a healthy manner) within the first 9 days. My husband is usually my cheerleader, but we recently decided that I can be a stay at home mom until our youngest starts school. That means he has been working a lot more overtime because he is determined not to let our lifestyle be drastically impacted. My income basically covered a bit of groceries and daycare....it really wasn't paying for me to work.

I need more friends and supporters in my daily news feed. This is my first time on the website, I love the app!

Currently 179.8 pounds. I have an elliptical that I do 30 minutes a day at least five days a week. I also have a Wii Fit and Wii Active. I love the Wii Active. I just started my 30 day challenge on there today. We are a house of five kids (two live with us, ages 7 & 3) as well as a 1 year old Golden Retriever (he is leash-dumb and makes walking unproductive) and a 6 month old German Shepherd that is over 100 pounds (he is a blast to walk with - good at building arm strength)!

That is all for now...

It is May 2nd and happy to say that the snow is almost gone in Northern MN!

    Hi, been on here for a bit, just logging to myself . . .now, my weight loss has topped off and I think having a MFP buddy will help with motivation. I walk occasionally, nothing else. I like eating healthy, but then I binge on bad things - usually high quality bad things . . . see how I make excuses. :D

    Anyway, hope we might be able to buddy-up and help each other reach goals. I'm in California.

    Thanks,
    Sydney

    I'm not sure how to friend request, but feel free to add me! :smile:

    Also currently a SAHM to a 12 yr old and almost 3 yr old. Since I turned 40, my weight has steadily climbed up, it's been scary! Focusing/consistency is a HUGE challenge for me. I am going to try to look up more things ahead of time so that I can stay within range.
