in Motivation and Support
I'm looking to start a group with about 20 30-something BUSY moms who want to lose at least 20 pounds by the end of the year. I would like to keep this a SMALL group so that we can get to know each other and really motivate each other!! Anybody with me???

    I would love to join in! I have 3 kids, work part time, take a college class and am involved in a lot of other things so I would definetly fit the BUSY part! And I am 32 so I would fit the 30-something also. And I most definetly WANT to lose 20 pounds by New Years! I would love to be part of a small group-I really need some accountability and it seems most of the groups on here get so large no one notices if you are there or not.

    I am definitely in. I keep losing/regaining and definitely need some accountability. I have two wonderful boys, ages 2 and 4 and work full-time. Definitely not busier than any other mom out there, but still busy nonetheless! :) I'm 36 and need to get this "baby" weight off once and for all before my boys are teenagers!

    Can I join even if I only want to lose about 15 pounds? I'm an almost 35 year old mother of 5 year old twins. I work full time, plus I'm really involved in my Moms of Multiples club and I seem to always have something going on.

    I would love to be a part of this group. I'm a working mom of two. I have had great success, but have seen myself really stall in the last few months, losing and gaining the same weight over and over again. I know where my issues lie, it's really just mind over matter for me right now!!!

    Me too!! Almost 33 with 3 kids. Am a SAHM since the third was born. I have been trying to lose those 20-30 pounds forever. I am my own culprit. I have fallen off the wagon so many times. This time I am not giving in. I would love to have friends and stay motivated along the way!

    I'd like to join too :) I'm from Queensland Australia, am 32 and I'm aiming to lose a lot more than 20pd, but I'm happy to aim for that and more by New Years! I have five kids, youngest is still a baby, eldest is 11, and I also work from home with my husband so definitely fit in with the Busy mums!

    I would love to! I need the help and accountability!!! I work full time, third shift, have three kids, two dogs, and a man to tend to. Running a household working 40+ hours a week is very trying, I often put myself on the back burner. I need to stop doing that and get out there and make it happen!!!

    room for another? I'm 35 mum to a 4 year old, work 4 days a week (but feels like full time!) Am currently out of exercise action with a back injury so really need to focus on the food!

    It's certainly not looking like a 'small' group, but I would really like to join :)
    I would really like to be in a group where we support each other, stay accountable, vent frustrations etc. It would really help me. I'm a 32 mother of 3, aged 2, 4 and 6 and work f/t as a high school teacher. I live in north coast NSW, Australia. Have been doing this half-heartedly lately and eating way too much sugar. I'm also not being very honest with my tracking :(

    How many are you up to? Can I still join?! I'm 33, work part time and have two girls 6 & 4. If we can lose 20lb by New Year I'll be over the moon! I started eating lower carb two weeks ago and have lost a stable 4lb. Upped my fish and veggie intake lots and loving re-adjusting my tastebuds away from piles of bread and pasta! Would be great to have some others to chat to about how we are getting along especially if we have those busy lives in common!

    Edit to add - woah, its 5lbs, not 4! this is the best progress I have had all year! Can't believe I missed that!

    Is it too late to join?? I'm a (almost) 31 year old single mother with a 6 year old daughter. I work full time and then a couple shifts/month at a second job. I did Insanity a couple months ago, and since it ended have not logged a single minute of intentional exercise. I would LOVE the motivation of a group of similar women! Let me know if I can join in or not. Thank you!!
