Looking for Working Moms - Need to Lose More than 50lbs

I am a working mom still trying to lose the baby weight from 4 years ago, but 'life' always seems to get in the way and every day seems to be day 1 again. So here I am looking for someone that can relate and is on the same type of journey.

    Feel free to add me. Took me 5 1/2 years before I started to focus on getting rid of the weight that I gained when I was pregnant.

    I am a working mom with three kids, 14, 10, and 6. It's so, so tough carving out time to exercise on weekdays. By the time I get home, make dinner, help with homework, etc, I'm too beat to do anything else. I am joining a local gym with a friend on Monday, and would love to add some friends that know this struggle, and help motivate each other! Feel free to add me!

    Feel free to add me. I have 4 kids and the youngest is 10 and I have rollercoastered with the 60 pounds for 10 years. I have spent thousands of $s with no results from various programs but I'm tired of looking older than I am and I know I can do this without spending a fortune. Good luck everyone

    It's the WORST!! LOL I started it so that I could be with my kids during the day and dad has them at night so we didn't have to deal with daycare but I'm SO over now that my youngest is in 1st grade!! Unfortunately I am a CNA and I've been working for the same client in his home for 3 years and I can't just dump him so....... I'm still at it but now that I can nap for a few hours during the day I'm actually having some success with eating properly and working out but it is a struggle!!

  • I'm a working mom of 3 boy's and have always had problems with my weight.. I have just had my third child after 6 years and can't seem to lose the baby weight.... I have been eating better and walking every day, but at the same time I suffer from RA and have a hard time getting weight off me.... I have lost all of 3lbs so far in the last week and need about another 65lbs to go.... I would love to look and feel sexy again and not be hiding from the mirrors....

    Thanks

    Count me in. However, I have a different story. Right after my daughter was born, I lost the baby fat right away (2 months). However, after a painful break up with her father, then I started putting the pounds back on. My daughter is now 16 years old and I still have this extra weight that I need to lose. So again, count me in!! :)
  • I'm also a working mom...I have 3 y/o daughter, work full time. I need all the help I can get from other mom's who "get it."

    Please feel free and add me. I'm jumping back on, again, and would love to connect with others who are trying to do it all, too!
