    I'm not a mom, but I am a student, worker, and a professional musician. I understand that stress is a huge deterrent to weight loss! But luckily there are so many people on MFP who support me and keep me grounded. I will add you!

    Do you stress eat? How old is your child? When my fiance's sister had her baby, she would actually do air squats while holding her child. Have you ever thought of looking up safe exercises you can do while perhaps feeding your child? Try to kill two birds with one stone?

    Once upon a time I was in the same boat except for the mom part! I am here to tell you that there is a light at the end of the tunnel with school. But most people can ALWAYS benefit from a friend who is working hard to eat right and exercise. You can never discount the worth of motivation from others!

    My son is 3 so that's out haha. I honestly didn't put on much weight but I still have a few lbs I'd like to shed. I tend to 'boredom' eat. I'm working on that. Thanks for all the support!
