Looking for support...again

I lost 80 pounds with MFP in 2012. 2013 left me with a very stressful twin pregnancy. I was on bed rest the entire pregnancy. The twins came early at 31 weeks and spent 5 weeks and 1 day in NICU. I think I put on more "baby" weight after they were born! I am now back on MFP to shed that extra baby weight, and some that was there before. Looking for friends to help keep me motivated.

    They are a blessing. I would be happy to encourage and uplift you in any way.

    Children are blessings from God and you had a double portion:) (No pun intended :) )
    I just started 30 days ago and have to lose over 100lbs so I will be here for a while, feel free to add me as a friend.
  • Never posted in a thread here.. Joined MFP last year and lost about 10lbs, then quit. Never got involved in the 'community aspect' of it... Now i've rejoined with a new account with the mindset of "out with the old, in with the new"... I'm 24yrs old and have gained about 40lbs since highschool (over the course of five years). Main reason for the weightgain was losing my Mom to cancer 2 weeks after highschool grad. Anyways, enough bantering, I guess I'm writing in here b/c I too am looking for support, and wanting to really 'do it' this time. Good luck in your journey everyone :)

    Hey ninnernom. Welcome back to MFP. I would gladly be here for support. It is really hard to get into a pattern. It took me about a month when I first started to get the hang of it so stick with it. It will get a lot easier. So sorry to hear about your mom. That's rough.

    I'm coming back to MFP after a long hiatus. I'm currently pregnant, so not "losing" until after the baby's here, but I'm focusing on eating better and being more active through the end of the pregnancy to try to be healthier. April I'll be switching back to losing. I'd love more friends :)
