Hi everyone,
Just wanted to introduce myself and ask a quick question. After five kids and my thyroid giving out on me I have packed on an additional 40lb's of stubborn weight So, here I am trying the MF program. I am very very excited to be here, I just really hope I have the stregnth and will power to do this! My problem is I am a definite emotional eater, so if I'm stressed I eat. Ofcourse there is never stress in a household of children ages 20,15,13,2, & 1!!! However, I have made it through the first three days and have dropped three lb's. So, that has helped when feeding everyone else to just keep with the program. Even though it is soooo HARD!!! So, here's the question what do other mommies - daddies do to distract themselves to not eat when everyone else is? Also, with my busy schedule of taking care of little ones and homeschooling the middle two - how do you find time to excercise? At the moment I am taking the younger two out for two mile walks everyday. I just don't feel like that is real excercise. Any suggestions in that area?
Thanks everyone & looking fwd to supporting each other
