    Welcome to the community! <3

    If you haven't already, read the stickies at the top of the getting started forum. Very informative and helpful.

    I'm so happy to hear about your baby. Congratulations on being a mom.

    Buy a food scale. Weigh everything you eat and log into the food diary.

    Good luck with your journey!

    It's all about being in a calorie deficit. The only way you can know that is if you weigh your food and log accurately into the food diary.
