I too am right there with ya! Although my little girl is approaching 2 yrs old. Life gets in the way sometimes. This is a great place to get support and a positive environment to stay motivated...i have about 20 to lose before i reach my goal! Everyone is invited to add me as a friend, I am on here all the time!!

Good Job!!! Keep it up!!!!!!!!!!! You're doing great!!!

I agree with the FB thing, I actually turned my notifications off...my phone was beeping like every 5 minutes!!!!.....LOL

Do you think we should start a little group page???

I will join for sure! I am on the injured list for a few days, possibly to a week, as I herniated a disk doing too much on the dead lifts....hahaha....but once I get back up and going I'm IN!!!!!!! Everyone is welcome to add me as well, and lets do this ALL TOGETHER!!

You all are more than welcome to add me!!!! More encouragment the better!!!

How DO you post pics???

Just keep your eye on the prize!! GOOD JOB TODAY!

Hopefully by the end of the week........but I will be here to keep yall in line ;)

:( Very saddened that I can not start the challenge on time. I herniated a disk in my lumbar and have to take it east for a few days. Luckily I work at a chiropractors office and get free treatment, so I know I am in good hands. I am limited to very light yoga and walking to what ever I can handle. I hate being limited, I…

Hi Everyone! Just want to introduce myself real quick. I am a busy working mom and wife here in Colorado. We have a little girl who is a year and half old and in the heart of the Terrible Two stage, so even though I have just one little one right now, between work, our daughter and taking care of the home, I find myself…

Hi Everyone! Just want to introduce myself real quick. I am a busy working mom and wife here in Colorado.

Oh yes.....I think it would almost be insanity not to. Obviously don't go overboard, but there are those days where I think it's perfectly okay to slip a bit.....I had one of those days a bit today and will again tomorrow (my mom's birthday). Can't be too hard on yourself to stick to it 100% of the time....I think we would…

THANKS EVERYONE! I'm not too worried about it, since I know time is the best option, espeically since it isn't THAT much weight. Just seeing if anyone had any of those off the wall ideas =) I use the Jergens firming lotion and it actually does really well.....

I agree.....set it at small goals. If you put too much on yourself, too much pressure, you may feel like you can't reach it, even though you CAN. Setting step by step goals helps you reach achievements quicker and keeps you motivated.....try 20lbs at a time....

25 pounds for me.....losing pregnancy weight!!!! LET'S DO THIS!!!!!

I think it's also a great idea. We all need that ONE (or a few) thing(s) that motivate us that we see everyday. I have a picture of myself when I was at my perfect weight hangin up in my bathroom, that way I see when I am...umm...exposed and can really feel the motivation to not think I look ugly in the mirror.

I understand the challenges of being a working mom. Somethings even stay at home moms can't understand. With working, kids, husbands and taking care of the fort, it's a tough battle for sure. You are more than wlecome to add me if you would like!!! I love to encourage people and also have them encourage me!!!! Good luck in…

Hello everyone, I am too new to the group!! Look forward to encouraging everyone and getting these pounds off our body for good!!!!!

Hi there!! I will gladly join this group!! I love the fact that there are so many people out there that are willing to openly discuss and share their struggles and their journey of weight loss with complete strangers!!! I am a busy working mom, of just one......none the less just one kid, a husband, a house and a job makes…

Hey!!! Why would you think we all would mind if you joined? That's what this place is all about!! =) Working mom's escpecially know the struggles to take time for ourselves and get back into shape. Luckily MFP is a huge help and if you get enough people under your lists you almost have a setting such as facebook or…

Welcome!!! Always nice to interact with those who understand (or somewhat understand) the busy lives mom's have. It's hard sometimes to take time for ourselves. Good luck to you and we are all here to encourage!!!

Thank you soooooo much! It's nice to interact with other moms, especially, becuase we know how busy it can get and how hard it can be to take time for ourselves!! =)

I'm more unconventional, I suppose. I can't stand Rap/Hip Hop or anything of that sort.....I listen to a lot of Rock, like the others said, anything that gets YOUR body moving.....I knew a guy that listened to Jazz while working out!! =) I have my playlist on my blog (lovingmymommylife.wordpress.com)

Well Hi there! Thanks for responding! Honestly, I really don't know exactly HOW I got down to that. I have experimented with many workouts over the past year and half. The two I have stuck with fairly consistently are a workout program with Chris Freytag called 10lb slim down, which have a few workouts that last just…
