Hi all. I've just joined this afternoon. My husband and I both want to lose some weight. I think I'd like to lose about 30-40 lbs. I will mostly be cycling with strength training thrown in p90x style a few times a week. I have two young chilren so that is where the problem lies. When do I have time to work out? I'm starting this week hopefully. I had to flu a few weeks ago and still can't stop coughing but I'm going to just try to tough it out! Thanks for any support!

  • Hi and welcome,

    I also have a wee one, 19 months old. She goes to bed at about 6.30-7pm so I fit in a work out after it. I also find putting peppa pig on for an hour during the day gives me some time to myself too!

    Good luck and feel free to add me

    Welcome, welcome! This is a great site with lots of motivation and support to help you along the way. It does get hard sometimes to find a minute to yourself for workouts, but you will, trust me. Good luck in reaching your goals.

    Thanks everyone. My plan is to workout during the day while my 2 year old is napping. My 4 year old doesn't get in the way much, he will hang out with me. Hopefully it works out!
  • Welcome to MFP! I've only been on here for almost a week, but I love it!! Hope you and your husband will to!!
