I find it harder to lose weight or keep it off because I'm at home
75% Normal

I'm a stay at home mom, trying to lose weight. I dieted before getting pregnant, and found it much easier to lose weight when I was working because I didn't eat out of boredom.

Does anyone else feel like this?

Sure thats real normal. Is there a parent-child drop in where you could meet other moms? They'll all be going through similar things. Good way to make new friends with lots in common & not be as bored/house bound.

Yes that is normal regardless of gender, I find that it is easier to lose weight when I am away from home more as packing lunch gives you more control over what you eat and how much, especially since I tend to be on the cheap side and will avoid overpriced vending machines for snacks.
