Hello! I've actually been using MFP for a couple of months now and love it! I decided I would check out the community and love hearing everyone's thoughts, stories, struggles, and advise.
I had a baby girl back in November. I was breastfeeding so by the time I went to my 6 week check up I had lost all 27 lbs that I had gained plus 6 more. I was eating really well while I was pregnant so continued, I just cut down on a couple hundred calories. I started going back to Jazzercise. So far I have lost 21 pounds of my pre-pregnancy weight, 13 poounds since joining MFP.
It's a slow progress, but it's progress. Too many times I have said I'm going to lose weight just to find myself restarting my diet a couple months later and being a couple pounds heavier. I am looking forward to meeting new people on MFP and sharing my siccess story soon!
