Hey Fitness Pals! I'm totally new to MFP and would like to meet some new friends for encouragement and motivation! I'm a mom of 3, I have a newborn son and I'm currently 5 weeks post partum. It's time to get healthy and lose all this baby weight I've gained over the last 9 months. All friend requests welcome! I can't wait to start reading about everyone's weight loss journey and to start sharing mine :)

    I hear you on losing the baby weight! I have two little ones (youngest is nearly 8 months now) and had put on an extra 20 lbs with each kid, plus I was already overweight to begin with. Looking to lose about 100 lbs. This seems like a great community so far. Also, I have done tons of diets in the past but this (calorie deficit) just seems to make more sense to me. Hopefully I can keep the momentum going!

    I am new here too! Just started a couple days ago. I have 2 children - an 8 year old boy and a 15 month old girl. My post partums were polar opposites. With the first I lost more weight than I ever had, with the second I gained more than I ever had. I am looking to lose 65-70 lbs and I'm in it for the long haul. Having lost 10 already, I know it is no longer easy for me to yo-yo back down the scale. Yikes! Time to make a healthy life style change and stop over eating! I also know now more than ever that I really need some encouragement to keep me going! I am happy to provide the same. :)
