The Darn Baby-Weight!

I really need people who are willing to support me through my weight loss journey.
I was within ten pounds of my pre-pregnancy weight, but then I started using a hormonal birth control, PLUS I was put on Paxil. Even though I stopped taking the Paxil, during the 3 months I took it, I gained ten pounds. I am just SO ready to lose all of this baby weight and then some. I want to feel healthy and good about myself again.

Nobody around me is very supportive.
My husband tries to be, but lately he's been a pig. -_-

Add me, male or female, any age if you think you could help me!
Sometimes I might need a kick in the butt, but in return I can be just as motivating and supportive

    Sending you a request! My baby is just over a year and I'm still about 10 lbs from my pre pregnancy weight. It's hard!

    Right there with yall..I lost 25 out of the 35 in the first two months and then NOTHING. Finally started really watching what I eat and working out. Really just started using MFP, never really used it or had friends on it. So hard though I do not want to miss anytime with my little guy.So if I do not work out during lunch time at work, its not happening! It is really hard when husband is not on board 100% either. I feel like my body has completely changed form, clothes do not fit at all like they use too!

    Love the support!
    Feel free to add me as well :)

    I had an extra 30 lbs on after the 8 I gained with my son. Although I'm not really interested in losing weight, my body is still yuck so I'm exercising , eating right and trying not to rely on any numbers but how I feel about my body =) You're a different person after children, you body will show it even if you're skinny.
