Hello from Virginia

Hi, I am a 27 year old newly employed mother of 2 looking to lose the large amount of weight I put on during my pregnancies that were less than 6 months apart. I struggle with knowing how to portion, how much of each type of food group I should be eating daily, and I struggle most with the medications I am on because they do have a side effect of weight gain. I had a gym partner for a while but she grew distant and now I must face the gym alone should I choose to go. I have various at home work out DVDs but I am not patient with seeing results and quit easily. I am hoping to find motivation and new friends on MFP as well as learn as much as I can about creating a healthier me.
