    I have a 13 year old daughter and 11 year old son. I find it easier to fit in time for a walk or run when they are this age - I can drop my son to his taekwon do class, bring the dog for a walk or run and be back in time to collect him. He sometimes joins me for a run at the weekend. I just embarrass my daughter.

    I have 3 lil ones. My oldest is almost 6 years old and he's in KG. My toddler boy is 3 and my daugther is 10 months old. Taking care of them drains me out and have no energy to workout :(

    Hi everyone, I'm a single mom of a 13 year-old girl who works full time. I just started tracking what I was eating and my exercise about two weeks ago. It's not easy when you have a growing teen who is an eating machine lol.

    Feel free to add me :)

    Do you do challenges on there? I do and it keeps you moving
    Do you sync your fitbit to MFP?

    I have done one weekend challenge on there I think. Those ones don't keep me going that much. I host challenges through FB, so those are the ones that keep me going. I do sync my fitbit to MFP so I can keep a better idea of what my calorie range is for the day.

    Well, survived the holiday with little collateral damage. A couple of bad food choices but continued to exercise throughout the weekend, so stayed ahead of the gain as best as I could that way. Back on track today, so I am good to go. I do have an old knee injury that has flared up, so that will need a little extra attention this week.

    My fitbit says it's sync but nothing shows up for me, my cell phone carrier said it's MFP website is reason why. It's so frustrating
