Good Morning Everyone,

I have lurked here a couple of times and found such great inspiration that I finally took the plunge and joined. I am a busy Mom to 6 children ages 8, 7, 5, 4, 3, and 17 months. I have been working on becoming healthy and losing weight since October 19 2010. I have been doing well with calorie counting and have recently (past 3 months) started learning to run. I am loving the results I have had so far but I am finding that I need someone to bounce ideas of off. I am feeling very stuck right now at this weight and I need some tips or advice on how to keep going down. I am 35lbs away from my goal.

Thanks so much,
Robbie-Lynn

You're doing awesome! I came here looking for support from moms of young kids. I have 4 under 10, with my youngest being 5 month old.
What's your exercise routine like? When do you find the time to run?

Thanks for the welcome.
RRB2 my workout routine is pretty basic. I either run inside or outside when hubby is here or I ride a stationary bike. I do something everyday for 30-60 mins. If I am inside of the treadmill or bike I do it while the babies are napping and the big kids are having quiet time. Other times I run after my hubby gets home from work. I have dinner with the family then get ready to go out. I get home just in time to say goodnight to the older kids. I find that running and biking fit well for me because they take very little time for big results. I homeschool so I really never have much time to myself.
