Losing the Baby Weight

rosebai21

Hello! Joining because I'm really working towards losing the 35lbs I gained with my last kiddo. Hoping for help with the motivation aspect. Currently loving the food tracker, as I can see where I need to improve my diet as I've thought it was pretty decent overall (I can already see I was wrong!) until now. I need to lose the weight I gained from my little guy and frankly his older sisters, as well as firm up. I know one area I'll have to work on maintaining even after I'm fit is my arms - I hate skinny arms on myself, which I tend to get when I'm in good shape.

Also - even though my goal is to lose what I gained with him, I have no clue where I'll actually end up. Last time I was in the shape I wanted to be was pre-kids, and my body has certainly changed since! Even when I'd lost the hip fat before getting pregnant with little man, I was 2 pants sizes bigger. So it's all up in the air.

Luckily my husband has decided it's time for him to get in shape as well, though his goal isn't the same. He's a big guy, wants to stay a big guy, but change the fat/muscle ratio he has right now as well as just overall fitness. So I luckily have a workout buddy there, which really helps with motivation as far as getting out to workout (I'm a stay at home parent currently to our 3 kids). But he won't much be seeing my workout and food diary here, so I'd love to connect with more people who are working on their health as well, especially anyone with some health concerns as I tend to be anemic and have hypoglycemia and food allergies that I really should start respecting full-time.

For anyone who made it through this, if you can't tell I tend to get very wordy and over-share at times, so sorry for the word puke!
