Hello, I have been on MFP for a little while. Tried it out, didn't like it, tried it out and played with it some more, liked it, and now I am starting to delve into the social aspect of the site a little better.

I guess for a little background, I was really overweight after I had my son (7 years ago), eventually I decided to make a change and lost 100 lbs over the course of 18 months or so. Then I met my now husband and succumbed to the "fat and happy" mind set. We would go out to eat a lot, go to movies and have pop corn and pop. Working out became a low priority etc. Eventually after gaining 50 lbs I realised I needed to get back at making my health a priority. Well I lost some weight and oops another baby. And that brings us to where I am now.

I have managed to lose a little over 20 lbs and I am close to my pre-pregnancy weight (2 more pounds to go woot woot) but I don't want to stop there. I have another 9 months before I have to go back to work and I want to use that time to get into better shape.

I am looking for some friends on here to keep me motivated and on track, so feel free to add me. I also do a vlog on youtube because it helps me stay on track. My channel is here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpRGTWmj6_dNa8Nh6DNx8fw

    Congratz on the weight you have lost already. You ticker looks just like mine :) I love MFP, I have only been here for 5 weeks and the results are great. I find that logging my food is very beneficial to my weight loss. To me this is all very easy. I have no doubt you will succeed at your goal well before 9 months. Add me as a friend if you would like a cheerleader/ friend
