I'm a stay-at-home mom and I've got two little ones, 2 and 4, and would love to add some other moms who understand the challenges with eating right, cooking for picky little ones (and a picky husband, LOL!), and trying to work in exercise between activities and playdates!

Thanks!

    Hi. I stay at home with my 4 1/2 year old daughter and 18 month old son. Feel free to add me.
    I make sure to take time out for me everyday to workout.

    Hey there! I'm a SAHM to 5 ... my 2 are 2 and 6 yrs (boys) and my DH has 3 - 7 (girl), 8 (boy) and 12 (girl). Good times all around! I run and do Insanity workouts in my basement gym... usually after the kids have gone to bed at night or while my 2 year old is napping on school days. Feel free to add me :)

    I have two boys, 9 months and 4 years and a husband. I work 4 days a week and have the most trouble making smart choices on my long weekends! My 4 yr old is sooooo picky. Feel free to add me!

    I am not a stay at home mom but, I am a busy working mom. Please feel free to add me.

    We can exchange tips on squeezing in mini workouts inbetween work, errands & playdates. Cooking a heathly & balanced meal the whole family will eat. And, still finding time to enjoy yourself & family :smile:

    I am lucky that my husband is not that picky anymore. He is enjoying eating healthier than we did a couple of years ago.
    I am having problems with the kids though. They are not picky, just proffer the not so healthy foods. I am trying to not buy any of that stuff anymore.

    I'm a SAHM too - I've four kids - the youngest is 2 in just under a month and although I don't get much organised exercise I walk everywhere and the calories soon burn off.

    I'm a stay at home mom! I have 2 kids ages 2 1/2 and 1 and I also babysit 3 other kids ages 4, 3, and 1, so ultimately I have 5 kids under 4, 4 days a week. To say my days are busy would be a huge understatement but I enjoy it and somehow I find the time to work out.

    Feel free to add me. I am a stay at home mother to 2 ages 22 months and 9 months. My father is living/staying with us and between him and hubby I have a very difficult time cooking healthy. The guys are running their own business and are very active all day long. When they get home they eat tons and are usually looking for a high carb dinner to fuel their day tomorrow. Lets not even go into all the junk they eat after dinner. Unfortunatly they do not understand why I can't eat like they do. They also tend to freek out when I exercise after they get home in the eveing. So nap time is usually when I get the most exercise in.
