    You can add me :)
    I'm a working mom as well. I have a 2 year old son. My husband is a stay at home dad. I started with my weight loss last February because I wanted to be a healthy example for my son and be able to do fun things with him during those precious hours I'm off work with him!

    You can add me, too. My son is 4 months. I work as a freelance translator and teacher, and adjunct at our local college. My hours can get kinda crazy. I feel awful when he spends the week at daycare and then I end up having to work all weekend. :(

    You can add me:) I have an almost 2 year old little boy, am half way through my junior year in college, work 24-28 hours a week, and I'm planning my wedding in October! My motto for 2012 is extreme, but I need the motivation. "2012: get fit or die trying" I just lost 30 pukes in 2011, and now I am determined to get my body back in shape and firm everything up. I am making time to work out 3 times a week. No excuses in 2012!! We can do this!!!!

    Feel free to add me too... I'm a working Mom and have 4 boys... 10, 9, 3 & 2. Juggling work, children, health, fitness is difficult. As a Mom, it's so hard to find "Me time" to exercise.. and I'm always torn with the guilt... I have a small window of time to exercise and my young guys want to spend all my free time with them. I have reached goal and am trying to maintain, but pressures of my new job have made it more of a struggle to find the balance between exercise and family in the small window that I now have.

    Hi! I too am a working mom with 4 children ages - 15, 13, 11 and 7. A fellow cheer mom introduced me to this site and I LOVE it! Great for busy moms to track what we are eating and exercising. Put the app on your phone so when you are out and about you can punch in your stats. The best tip I have is... As a working mom with 4 kids, we have homework, dinner, housework, sports and it gets hard to fit in a time to exercise. So I try to incorporate it into family activities. This weekend we went ice skating and played in the snow. When I got tired of skating I continued to walk around the "ice rink" we built and got in my workout. Other times I swim laps while the kids play. Don't make working out a chore! We already have enough of those.
