I'm a mom of 3. I have a 11 year old, one that will be 2 next week, and one that will be 8 months next week. I am a stay at home mom, but these kids keep me running and I homeschool my 11 year old.
These last two pregnancies really took a toll on my body and even though my husband and I would have liked to have had one more baby, but my body said "no more". I had one surgery in November 2015 to remove scar tissue and then in December 2015 I had to go back and have a hysterectomy.
Between two rough pregnancies and two rough surgeries, I gained weight and the heaviest I've ever been in my life at 210.
I realized I have been shying away from experiences and memories being made with my family because I am so uncomfortable in what I feel is my fat suit. I don't want my picture taken, I don't ever feel like I have anything to wear.
I want to be in pictures with my husband and kids. I don't want to shy away from experiences with my family.
We are planning a trip to the beach in June 2016.
I have enlisted Jenny Craig to help me shed this fat suit. 10 days on Jenny Craig I have gone from 210 to 201.1 this morning! My husband is so proud of me. I want to get back to working out, but I can't seem to find time for me between homeschooling, babies, and taking care of the house. My Jenny Craig advisor says I really need to find time for me but I haven't been able to do that.0 -
I'm in! I'm a mum of 3 (6, 4 and 22 months) and I work 4 days a week as a secondary school teacher. Anyone who's a teacher will tell you that's not really part time! I work on my day off and at the weekend too. My husband does shift work, just to make it all harder.
I'm only 10lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight, but I'm starting to struggle now as I'm so exhausted.0 -

How do I join?0

Sign me up. Tag me. I'd love to be a part of this group. As a busy mom, I have often used to excuse, I'm tired. And yes that is true, I need extra motivation and encouragement to take that walk or make healthier choices and to keep me accountable and on track. I was doing really good for a while, but then it's so easy to fall into old habits again. So it would be a great group to join.0

Yes! I think that sounds great. As a working mom, I know I always tend to put my needs after those of my little girl and my husband. It's difficult to make myself a priority (not just due to lack of time, but also because I struggle emotionally when I try to put myself first), so it would be good to get support from others who feel the same way.
Sounds just like me
