Options
I'm 34, mother of 2, and was trying to loose weight even before the babies came. Unfortunately the weight never came off and my youngest is now 2. Can I still call it baby weight? :) I feel like I've always remember myself as being overweight, but I'm realizing I really didn't start putting on the weight until later in life. Now that my kids are a bit older I'm ready to reinvest in myself and...well I need help. I would love to learn from anyone's successes or advice or get healthy recipes. I'm new to this site too so I'm gonna be trying to figure out how to navigate this website. I'm gonna take Dory's advice and, "Just keep swimming." :)
