    Wife2bo that's exactly what I posted on my fb status on new years! This I'd my year, feeling more like myself and less like a frumpy mom who puts everyone else first. U all can add me if u like. I'm a sahm to 4 boys. I've lost 26 lbs so far and just 3 lbs away from my initial goal. I realize now I have more to loose but I'm ready!

    Hi! I am a mom of 2, ages 4 and 6. I've had an extra 10-15 pounds for the last few years but I just went crazy this last year and gained 20 pounds, it was really awesome to eat and drink everything I felt like, whenever I wanted, but I have to reign it in! I am adding exercise back into my lifestyle, and hopefully learning to love it :) because I think I'll have more energy and feel better with that missing piece added in. Also, eating with some sense of restraint. Feel free to add me!

    Yes, so glad you're all posting as like you I need some support and motivation! Anyone can feel free to add me (please!). Keeping a journal is the best thing I can do and having people aware of my logging (or lack thereof) is sooooo helpful. I'm trying to stay focused on my eating and making incremental improvements to my exercise routine as I'm just getting serious about losing pregnancy weight, pre-pregnancy weight, and post-pregnancy weight. I'll try and add those of you who are open to it.

    I am a working mom of 3 (3, 4, and 10). This year I put on about 20 pounds after I was injured in a car accident. I'm looking to lose 25-30 before this summer. I could really use the motivation and support to lose the weight.

    I would love to be added. I'm a busy single mom of 2 toddlers and full time student. 4 days of the week I commute to school which means I drive approximately 120 miles each of those days. I have about 10 pounds to go before I reach prepregnancy weight which is my goal for right now, but my long term goal is to lose 25.

    @vivianausa‌ I would say breastfeeding is a big part of it. Right away I lost 30lbs doing nothing in the first 6 weeks. (I did cutout pizza, desserts, soda, etc. for the most part). After the 6 weeks I did some workout videos by Jillian Michaels, ate healthy-ish for the most part. I try to go on walks a few times a week. Now that I've lost it all and my baby is older, I'm using this app to count calories and also started one of the workout videos again.

    I would like to join this group. I want to lose 20 pounds for 4 months. I manage to pack on those only for less than a year. I hope there is a way back to my old me:-)
