I was on mpg a while ago, but I lost motivation. I gained back some weight. I have about 10-12 pounds to lose. I'm into jogging, walking, and the occasional workout video. I'm a stay-at-home mom of one and in my early thirties.

    I recently started running, and as a military spouse and stay-at-home mother of 2, I live by workout DVD's! If it weren't for them, i would NEVER get to work out!! I have about 25 more pounds to go until I finally can start maintaining. If you ever need a pep-talk, just let me know! :)

    If you like running, have you tried the C25K app? It's free, and trains for a 5K. For me, having the accountability to a race motivates me. You could sign up for something like that, for the future. I just did my first 5k this weekend. It wasn't timed, so there wasn't any real pressure, besides what I put on myself. lol I liked knowing that no matter what I had a date to be ready by, so I had to suck it up and go, no matter what.
  • I'll check it out. Thanks!
