Hi, I'm Dena. I have started and re-started this for a while now, and realize that I can't do it by myself.

I'm a 30 (almost 31) year old mom of 2 kids (ages 5.5 and 13mos). On top of my full-time job mothering, I have a full-time job.

I have been making excuses for why I can't "find the time or energy" to work out, but I'm starting to realize that I use these excuses because I am bad at holding myself accountable.

SO.... I'm looking for other moms (working or SAH) to join me as a "Mom Community" to keep each other motivated and accountable to our goals.

Friend request me if you are interested!

    I am also a mother of 2 (7yrs and 7mos.)! Still trying to lose the pregnancy weight from the 7 yr old. MFP seems to be the one thing helping me out! Feel free to friend me and we can keep each other accountable.

    I'm a bit older than you but also a mom, wife and fulltime worker. I have four kids from 5 to 18. This is a great sight and you can do it once you decide! Good luck to you. I'll send you a friend request.

  • I am interested in talking with you guys too. I am a mom of two boys (Ages 2 and 1) I lost 140 lbs 10 years ago through diet and exercise. I had basically kept it off until I was pregnant for two years straight. Now I have lost 23 lbs and have a little over 50 to go to get back to fighting weight.
