Looking for moms who work full time and trying to stay focused on health and fitness. I'm a mother of a 2 year old and work as a teachers assistant 7 hours a day. How many kids do you have and what is your career?

    Hi there! I work full time and have two kids at home. Ages 17 and 9. I work as an office coordinator and I work full time, 5 days a week. As it takes me out of the house all day and I don't get home until the evening, I find it a struggle sometimes to stay focused on health and fitness. I'm trying though! Feel free to add me as a friend if you like.

    I am a mom of a 5year old working as a project manager in the financial sector. My hours can vary from 7 to 12 hours per day.

    Consistency with my workouts can be difficult but I aim for 4 times per week. I spend the time packing lunch and snacks and pre logging to help stay on track.

    Feel free to add me.

    Legal secretary.

    I train before work. When my kids were little, it was at home with VCR tapes.

    Now I have a gym membership as my kids are older.

    I am an elementary school librarian with 2 kids-19 months and 4 months. I also have a DS business on the side. I work out after the kiddos are in bed at night. I prefer morning workouts, but that is not happening anymore!

    I'm a wife, mom of 3 boys (12, 10 and 9) and a full-time court reporter. I workout six days a week. I've built up to that, but I love the way it makes me feel!! I usually workout 4:45 every morning (before my excuses kick in!)

    Hi! I'm a proud Mom to two girls, 10 & 20. I work a full time graveyard job and a part time day job. My full time job I'm a nursing assistant in a medical group home, my part time day job I work at a preschool. I work 58 hours/7 days a week. Between work and my girls I find it very hard to eat right, and not just grab something quick, like fast food. But thanks to MFP it's helping keep me accountable, and helped me realize just how many calories alot of the old stuff was that I ate.

    I'm a mom of a 10 year old and a 1 year old who is still nursing. I work out 5-6 days a week. I am a nurse and work 12 hour nightshift a 3 days a week. I don't get to sleep much as my husband works during the day. My biggest struggle is getting motivation to workout after sleeping for 2 hours in 34 hours. So far I have managed pretty well.

    Ive got 3 kids, 12yr old and 2yr old that are mine and a 10yr old that I help raise thats my bfs. I work fulltime 3rd shift as a saddle stitch operator. 3rd shift is a rough one trying to add in raising children and taking care of yourself. There are days (infact this week has been one of them) where I just cant get myself motivated enough to lift some weights. Cheers to the working mommies!
