Busy mom looking for friends & Support

Hey all...

I am a 33 year old BUSY mom of 7...we are foster parents to four and have adopted one with two of our own. I work full time as a director of a local day care and I am working my behind off to finally get my weight under control!! I have a goal of 131 lbs to lose and I have lost and gained and lost and gained the same 40 lbs a million times.
I finally feel like I'm on the right track and would LOVE some more friends/support on here :)

Thanks,
Shannon

    Hi Shannon,

    I have 3 (busy) boys under 5 and I own my own photography biz as well. Im struggling with balance.

    Hi!!
    Oh photography is something I've done in the past for a few years but just couldn't keep up. It became more a chore then a passion so I stopped. Now I just do things for friends. Its a difficult balance for sure!! Good for you for trying to find time to focus on YOU!!

    Hi!

    You should check out the group "mommys with 50+ to lose". Just search that. It's pretty new but very supportive moms there!

    Good luck with your journey!
