Hi all
Well I'm sure I'm not the first to cry out for help and won't be the last but boy do I need it . I just keep gaining and giving into cravings and sleeping in the morning when I know my butt needs to be up working out. Basically I need this to be it! I need to get healthy. I'm a 30 year old stay at home mom( though I have a couple volunteer things that I do) my children and husband are healthy fit people so I'm very lonely in my struggle. What I'm looking for is someone can I can text or text me push me and not let me give in. I know this might be asking a lot of someone but I thought it would be worth a shot

    Hi there, I am a working mom but I get how hard it is. I will encourage you along your journey if you will do the same for me, feel free to add me.

    My husband is very fit too, so I am also struggling with this. He is supportive, but he just doesn't get it if that makes sense.

    I am looking for a accountability partner too. I have tried without having support but have done much better with support. I am 29 work second shift but am trying to get up in the morning and do something that resembles a workout lol. I am working with a dietitian and feel motivated but know this feeling i have will die within a week if I don't find someone that will hold me accountable. PM me if you want to exchange numbers or add me on MFP and we can kick some butt.I have 60lbs i want to loose so HELP please!!

    32 year old stay at home/work from home mom here. I've lost over 60 pounds starting in January of 2014. Aside from running a small bulk for about 6 months where I purposefully put on some weight so I could gain muscle, I have kept all of it off. I'm on every day, and hit the gym 4-5 days a week without fail. Feel free to add me.
