Hi all!
I am new to this group. I am having such a hard time getting started on the road to weight loss. I had my second child 10 months ago and am still holding onto that pregnancy weight gain. I also feel like I have nooooo time for anything. I have always been a very organized person and it killing me that things are so chaotic adding a second child to the mix. I cant keep up with cleaning like I want to, I feel like I can't fit exercise in or eating healthy. I know that sound like an excuse and basically it is. I don't know why but I am feeling like it takes alot of preparation and time to loose weight. Somebody please set me straight, tell me an easy way to get on the right road - I want to be on the road to weight lose. I can't stand how I look and feel!

Welcome to this community. There are some great people here. Listen honey, about your post. I know having babies are hard (I have had 6. Three were 13 months apart!) And while raising them my husband's first wife gave up her children so I had two teenagers come live with us (yes 8 children). First I want to say that maybe you have to set your prorities in line. Clean house vs healthly mom and kids? You are in the best place to exercise. While taking the kids out for a walk play ball, run, go to the park. The weather is getting nice. Have a dance time with your boy when you can't go outside. All you need is 3 ten minutes dance times to get your daily workout. Get those 100 fun songs for toddlers and do some crazy dance hat includes jumping and stretching. I teach 2nd grade and that is how I have started doing it because I felt like I didn't have anytime to workout.
Start giving your son healthy foods now and he will grow up likeing it. Plan out the way you want him to go now while he is still trainable (they get more set in their ways the older they get)
Take one step at a time (this is the advice that I am getting. Small goals are more attainable then big ones. So work on eating three meals and two snacks a day (have a cooking day where you and your son make snacks). Watch the foods you eat and if you eat out make healthly choices. And if you slip up, so what just get back on your feet and keep going. Life doesn't stop because you ate that coconut creme pie and a liter cherry pepsi. Brush off and keep on trying. Remember, we are in the same boat. Lean on this community. Make friends and come often, they have a lot of good Ideas.
