Hi Everyone! I joined this site a few months ago, but fell off the wagon and have just found my way back. I am determined to stick with it this time!

I have a 3.5 year old son, and a 10 month old girl. After each pregnancy, I lost the first few pounds easily, but then worked my way back up!! I currently weigh only about 10 pounds less than when I delivered my first born. My ultimate goal is to lose about 40 pounds and get to 160. Maybe more after that, but at that weight I felt healthy!

I've been reading through these forums a lot the past few days, and it has really helped to inspire and motivate me, so thank you all so much for that!

    Good luck with your journey. remember that its not easy. There will be bumps along the way. Dont think that just because you fell of the wagon last time that you will again. Each and every time that you log on here you are making an effort to be healthy. keep up the good work and be true to yourself. Also remember that weight loss is just math. 3500 calories = 1 pound. Put less in or just work more off. your choice.
