    I'm a SAHM to two little girls 7 and 3! Life is crazy busy fo rme as well. I am also in school fulltime and used that as my reason to not work out and eat right, but that way of thinking has changed. I started about a month ago and have made some good progress so far. Feel free to add me, the more the merrier! :) Good luck to all of you!

    Welcome! I'm also a stay at home mom with two boys, a 4 year old and a 4 month old. I also nanny for two little girls so it's pretty hectic around here!

    I'm slowly working on spending some more time for myself and getting healthy so I can be a positive role model for my boys and have more energy to run around with them!

    4 kids for me (18,16,13 & 2) but just became a sahm 1 year ago.. it was a HUGE adjustment for me. I tried to stay busy doing fun activities, but as winter set in we didn't want to leave the house so much.. so I started doing Zumba and some of the Billy Blanks dvds and my 2 year old tries to do them with me which is cute.. The last few weeks have been hard because I've had different things going on and haven't been able to work out as much. I am hoping to get the motivation back to change that!! I am always looking for more of a support group, so feel free to add me if you would like! Thanks

    My family life is crazy, busy, fun and.. did I say crazy? I have a 6 year old daughter and 3 year old son. Adjusting to staying at home was very hard for me, I find it hard to make time for myself and focus on my own diet and exercise. This is going to change though.. time for some ME TIME! I'm tired of feeling tired.. and want to set a great example for my kids. Just looking for Moms in a similar situation who can relate and MOTIVATE! I



    I can relate. But I only have one child. Feel free to add me.

I just started at this again in January, and we joined the ymca last week, so now I can take the kiddos and go work out in peace? haha! Feel free to add me. I'm also trying to work on getting rid of the junk and getting the boys to try new foods.
