Mom of two wants to get back in shape

Hey everyone!

I had my baby three weeks ago and want to slowly get my body back in shape. Because it's hard to do this alone, I am looking for some friends that are in a similar situation.

My story: The last three weeks I was super tired and ate a lot of crap which made me gain 2 kilos, urgh. I cannot keep going like this. My goal is to eat healthily and only when I'm hungry (no more stress eating) and take a 30 minute walk every day. When I am a little fitter, I will join a fitness class for mommies and later I want to start jogging again. Eating and exercising is fun and I am no fitness nazi. Cookies allowed! ;) I think it's all about a good balance.

I'm looking to lose around 10-12 Kilos (22-26 pounds) within the next year. I'm 1,71m (5'6) and want to weigh 68-70kg (150-155 pounds). That's the weight I feel comfortable with. Size M (US 8, EU 36/38).

If you want to be my friend (mutual support included), I would be delighted :smile:

Vera

    Hi.

    MoStacy is looking for people for her Holiday Motivation challenge of getting 25 out of 31 days of exercise (any kind of activity) done between now and Christmas.

    So far, it's just me. Why not join us?

    I also mentioned some other standing groups I belong to in my first post there - maybe something there will strike a chord with one of you ....
