    Hi ladies!! I am also a stay at home mom of a 4 year old boy. I am a full time student too! So it has been hard for me to get all my work outs in!! Blah!! Moms know what is like to try to exercise with a little one at your feet. Or having to stop every few minutes to get them something! (thats me anyway)

    I will add you both could use the motivation as well!!

    I'm a working, single mom of 1. I am trying to lose about 70lbs total from my highest weight. So far I've lost 39 but it's only getting harder from here. I'm looking for people in similar situations to help support each other.

    :bigsmile: I am sending you a friend request.
    I am a work from home mother of 2.
    I find it extremely hard to get my workouts done, expecially since
    I have been working 12 hrs a day.
    I usually get them in late in the evening even if its just a 30 min walk.....
    We can motivate each other...

    Hi, I am a working mother of 2 full time boys and I also have a stepdaughter that we get every other weekend. I have around 80-90 pounds to loose myself. I just joined this site yesterday and I already really like it! I am also looking for supportive moms to talk with about the crazy struggles of this massive task of creating a healthy lifestyle!!!

    Hi. I am a mom of 2 girls (4 years old and 18 months). I just started this program 20 days ago and have lost 6 pounds so far, but I still have 55 lbs to go to reach my end goal. So far I love this program. I hope you do too. :)

    Haha and here I thought I was the only one. I know what you mean though. I got down on the floor to do some crunches one day and my 18 months old climbed on me and started laughing. She thought I was getting on the ground to play with her. Lol

    Hi, I am also a SAHM. I have two girls, 7 & 2, who keep me on my toes. :) I gained quite a bit of weight with my second and now I'm trying to get it off and keep it off! Before starting mfp I lost 20lbs and now I want to lose 30 more. This site has been amazing and I probably wouldn't have been at it for 3 weeks now without it. Lol

    I think the more friends and support you have the better! :)

    hahahaha I thought that only happened to me. I lost 30 lbs in 2 months and I guess I was looking a little too good because the next thing I knew I was pregnant with our second...lol
