Would like to find someone who would like to be budies through this, we could help eachother out.

    Well you have found the right place. You will love it here, and will get so much motivation and support! We aren't perfect, and we can all use some help!

    I have a 7 and 4 year old and have over 100+ lbs to lose. I'm at 230 righ now.

    Feel free to add me and I'll be there for you.

    As a working mother I understand about not having a lot of time as well. But eating well doesn't take much time, just a little planning. Also, if you can purchase Jillian Michael's 30 day shred. I started it and do it at least every other day and the work out is only 20-30 min long. I can fit that in, and it works! Not to hard of moves that you can't follow.

    Good Luck! :drinker:

    Hi Brandi! I completely understand what you mean. i end up messing up a diet and say, "I'll start tom." I'm still waiting on tom! :) Anyhow, I'm a mom of 5...3 girls and 2 boys. I did lose 150lbs on Weight Watchers after I had my 3rd daughter but then I got pregnant with #4 and then #5 came along. I'm determined to get down myself. Please feel free to add me. Encouragement is always great!

    i am pretty much in the same boat as you. I have a full time job as well as a 1yr son and great hubby. And as far as weight loss I am about 219 last time I checked about a week ago and need to lose about 64 pounds to be around 155.

    Hello
    I am in a very similar situation to you. I work full time, have a four and a half year old son and need to lose weight. I would like to lose about 35 pounds. I know how it is to find any time at all for me. I have to bring work home with me too so evenings are busy too! Let's do this together!
