My husband and I started using MFP about a month ago. It's going great especially for him. He's more dedicated than I have been. We have a two and a half year old and a six month old. Needless to say, we're busy. I need encouragement to keep going. My husband has lost 18 lbs and I've lost almost 10. I'm so ready to do this. I just don't want to fall off and stay off the wagon.

    Welcome! And great job so far! Feel free to add me if you'd like! I found having MFP friends that log in daily really helps, because I know they'll bug me if I slack. I'm a mommy of little ones too, btw.

    Good luck! Now is always a good time to get in shape, especially as you have 2 little ones to run after! With all that lifting and carrying, the weight should drop off!!

    I'm a SAHM to 3 boys - 4 yrs, 2 yrs, and just turned 1 yr. :) You CAN lose weight at home with kids, but don't let anyone tell you it's easy!! LOL I try to either workout during nap times or before they get up (but I"m NOT a morning person, so that rarely happens :P). My two older ones LOVE to do the workout DVDs with me, or they'll play in our basement with toys while I run on the elliptical. You can do this!!! Good luck!!

    This site will definitely give you encouragement. I have a 6 month old too and this site is by far the best one I have found. I'm learning not to compare myself to my husband. He has lost 15 lbs in two months and he's not even trying. But the people I have met on this site so far are great to talk to and rely on for support. Good Luck in your journey. You can add me if you want

    for one, don't compare yourself to your husband! Men lose weight differently than women, and it is discouraging to try to keep up with them :(

    10 pounds in a month is spectacular! Keep up the good work!
