SAHM of toddlers, want friends, 80 to lose

Hey everyone!

I am 5’3’’ with 70-80 pounds to lose. I am a stay at home mom to two toddlers. Finding time to exercise and eat right is not always easy.

I am counting calories and exercising 6 days a week. I am trying to replace negative thoughts with positive alternatives. I am also focusing on adding more good foods, rather than focusing on restricting bad foods. I do not log food or exercise on Sundays.

I am looking to add friends to my community! Supporting others is very motivating for my own progress. I don’t have a lot of active support from my husband (although he is amazing and wonderful) he just doesn’t want to change with me right now. I need to surround myself with people who do want to change.

:) post about your journey and whatever other motivation you want! I’m ready for change!

    I couldn’t figure out how to send you a friend request. I became a SAHM when I had my 7th kid Feb 2016. She’s the 3rd I gave birth to. I have 35 pounds I still would like to lose. The kids still at home are ages 10-2. It doesn’t make getting exercise in a challenge. I am hoping I can get moving more when school is back in session.

    Hi! I'm not a stay at home mom but I would still love to meet other moms of toddlers who are trying to lose weight!
    I have a one year old (as of yesterday :o:o ) and I would like to meet others on the journey of motherhood and weight loss!

    Yeah, I am trying to build up strength and lose 55 pounds so that I can join a kick boxing team, friends are the best kind of support.
