Hello my name is Stacy and 6 weeks ago I welcomed a beautiful baby girl into my life. During the pregnancy I ate everything and was lazy!! I gained almost 70 pounds! :( My final weigh in was 238. I am currently down to 213 but have a ways to go before I get down to my pre pregnancy weight of 170. However, my goal is 160 (I'm 5'9"). I never lost that last 10 pounds from my first pregnancy 2.5 years ago. I was just cleared from the doctor to exercise again so I am excited to get this show on the road. I'm looking for other moms or anyone for support as I conquer this journey. Thanks for reading!

    Hi Stacy! I have a 6 month old and I am 40 lbs away from a healthy weight... Ugh. Welcome :)

    Hi I'm Nisha.
    I'm also new to MFP!
    Had my second baby nearby two years ago, and I still have 20lbs to loose!

    Good luck!
