    I am a stay at home mum of a 6, nearly 5 and nearly 2 year old sons. My 6 year old son called me fat the other day. So I found this site last Monday. That's my motivation.

    Do I count? I'm not a SAHM, but I'm a full-time nanny. No, I'm not saying that I'm the same as a mother, I'm not, by any means. But I'm with the two that I take care of Monday-Friday, from the time they wake up in the morning until about an hour before bed time, so I don't know if you're looking for someone like me or not!

    I am also a stay at home mom. I have over 100 pounds to lose. I started this journey back in Oct. but joined MFP on Dec 30th. I am finding that I am able to put into effect this lifestyle change easier using this website. I would be honored to encourage you on this journey. :flowerforyou:

    Me! I thought when I left my job that I'd have more time to work out - but it just seems so difficult to be motivated to do it most days! I'm a SAHM with two girls and my oldest said the other day that "mommy's belly is getting bigger". I definitely could use some support on here!

    I am a SAHM of two. I have gotten to a place where my workouts are my only real "me" time so I have been enjoying that more.
    I am always happy to lend support or motivation. I like sticking around this site during the day. It keeps me from snacking!

    Me!
    I have a 7 yr old, 2 yr old and 6 mo old. I have about 88 lbs to go...down 14 thus far. Hoping after the PMS bloating wears off I'll be down some more. Water retention is a *kitten*. Haha!

    Count me in!!! I'm a stay at home mom. I have five girls. Four are in school and one at home all day. I usually take her with me to the gym three days a week, but she's been sick for two weeks so I couldn't take her. I try to go at night, but since I had been going during the day nighttime workouts don't appeal to me. And working out at home doesn't appeal to me at all.

    SAHM here too and I know exactly what you mean. Too much time around food with feeding the kids etc. I have been doing this for about 6 months and I have learned a lot but it is always nice to have people to encourage you and help you on your journey!

    ME ME ME!

    I'm a stay-at-home mama too! I've been on here over a year now, but I LOVE meeting other SAHM MFP friends to connect with during the day. It's a whole new ball game working out & eating healthy with a family!! It's always more fun to do this with support!! :)
