I'm 29 y.o. I just had my first baby in august, lost all my baby weight (was obese to begin with), and in the last 3 months have managed to gain weight to where I'm almost as heavy as I was at 9 months pregnant.

So needless to say I need to get my act together. I haven't always been fat and I don't believe I'm meant to be fat.

So starting tomorrow I am going paleo (not because I'm afraid of grains/carbs, but because I think it will help me eliminate all the junk I eat, I'm definitely a sugar addict). I'm feeling good about my decision and super motivated! I can't wait to start feeling better. Looking for supporters and people to support.

    Hi! I'd love to be a supporter/supportee in this journey! I'm looking to lose about 50lbs and I have decided to give clean eating a try! I;m adding you as a friend. :)

    Sorry, it's a rule of mine that I can't support restrictive diets because they're unhealthy, and in almost every single case they end in failure. I do wish you the best of luck though.
