I'm a latecomer from SparkPeople. I found out I was pregnant as SparkPeople was shutting down so have just kind of floated since then, but baby is here now and I need a new home.
I lost about 200lbs with SparkPeople in order to conceive my first child, but two babies, COVID, and some new depression meds later I've gained a good chunk back.
My doctor has asked that I not go as low in weight this time but agrees I need to lose some. Her suggestion was to get back down to 200lbs then reevaluate, but she doesn't want me any lower than 175lbs. So I'm going to take it slow.
I hope to enjoy MyFitnessPal like I did SparkPeople, and I hope I find some new friends on this journey.
