Are you a parent?

[AnotherDay]

Just wondering how many members on here are parents? I am a mother of 2 wonderful toddler girls and wanted to know how you deal with your ed and your family.

I think there's someone who was a parent, who was talking about her kid who was a year and a half old. I think she was 28?

There's a few older people, but I dont think there's likely to be more than 3-5 parents.

I have a 2 and 4 yr old (both girls) so I'm right there with you :) I do find it hard not to eat something while preparing their meals or snacks. However the house itself keeps me so busy that I can usually not eat until dinner time. However if it's one of "those days" I tend to b/p if I'm really stressed. I just always make sure my girls never see/hear me purging. I will always turn up the cartoons or something..lol
I also try to always eat something even if it is the smallest amount at dinner. The dinner table is where we all chit chat about the day with daddy, and I never want my girls to ever see me not eating and have questions (plus it raises questions with DH too).

I have a 3 year old daughter. And I constantly worry about how she'll feel about me when she's older. She already stands on the scale alot, but she doesn't know what it's for, and her doc actually told me she should sometimes to make her comfortable with doing it at appts. I hated my mother for being obese my whole life. And that's the reason I'm terrified of gaining. So, I just want to raise her with a healthy awareness of her body. I just wish I had that...
Do as I say... not as I do, right?

I'm a mother to a beautiful todldler who'll be 2 in January :)
It's hard to lose weight when you have to cook for a toddler specially when she eats lots of little snacks through the day :) I always get tempted to eat the left overs haha

I am a mother of a 16 month old girl and a 4 month old boy.

I don't have time to exercise like I used to and I gained alot of weight with my pregnancies. I ate healthy, even though I still thought the same, when I was pregnant. My emotions went crazy when I was preggo and I start binge cycle without the purging. Now I am trying to gain that secret control again since everything else is messed up in my life.
