Welcome!
Welcome to the Teachers (Educators) with Kids Group! I created this group because I felt like there wasn't representation in MyFitnessPal for people that have unique jobs like educators, but also have families and personal health goals.

Recent Activities Update!
At the beginning of April I did a 5K with my husband and daughter in the stroller. We didn't do fantastic and our time was 50:58, but in training I had only walk/jogged on the treadmill for 30 minutes and only got 1.6 miles. Yesterday, I did a fun mud run.

I've had one skin infection, two colds, an ear infection, and food poisoning since September! Three of those have occurred since I started exercises and counting calories at the start of…

It was great for weight loss, as I my wedding band isn't cutting into my ring finger anymore, not so great for nutrition! One day I had 300 calories because food was so repulsive for…
