I need support like woah!

I am 26 years old, have two beautiful girls ages 6 and 2, and am happily married to an amazing man! The downside, I live where my husband grew up in a smallish town where I only really know his family...He has a physically demanding job and certainly doesn't want to work out with me after working a 12+ hr days. I have no one to keep me motivated and cant seem to get a grip on self motivation. Ideally I would love a workout partner to keep me going and to motivate in return, but I will take any support I can get, Even adding more friends here to help me hold myself accountable would be great! I just want to reach my goal, I know what I need to do, just need help keeping to it. PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Actually, other than an unusually large appendage, I am perfect. Its more of a curse.

    I guess within every online community someone has to make snarky remarks behind the safety of their keyboard.

    You're welcome to add me. I'm really more about persistence rather than motivation. When the motivation fades, persistence drives me on.

    I envy your mindset! I am so stubborn and persistent when it comes to everything else, but for some reason, I don't know how to apply that to my weight loss. I look forward to hearing from you!
