    I'm a 37 year old stay at home mother of 4 ages 12, 5, 2 1/2 and 1.
    I need to lose about 40-50 lbs. I'm trying to do it the healthy way but I get so down and discouraged with how far I have to go and how long every day is.
    I could definitely use a support buddy!

    28-year old mom to a toddler. Started working on my nutrition in April (it can be a challenge!). I could use as much support as I can get and I'm willing to give it too. :smile:

    Hi I am a mom of 4, the youngest is 2 and a handful. I find it very difficult to find time for me and the energy for exercise. I am trying to change my diet first but really need to get the motivation to exercise daily
