Looking for some friends!

Options
I just had my 3rd child 2-1/2 weeks ago and was idle on MFP for most of the pregnancy, a lot of people deleted me because i guess they didn't have the patience to leave me on their friends list until I had the baby and could start back up on my diet and exercise.

Here's a little about me: I am a cake decorator in a small town, I have been overweight for 5 years and for that entire time I couldn't break past my plateau of 185 no matter how hard I pushed...until NOW. I -Just- broke past it this last week and am at 178, I have lost 30lbs since the first weigh I had that was a few hours after having my daughter. ..I am 15lbs under my pre-pregnancy weight!

I have 2 goals, Short term is to get down to 160 and my long term main goal is to get back down to 130. I have a lot of work to do to get there and could use the encouragement on hard days!

I am looking for the extra push and motivation from my MFP friends that I've missed since I was gone. maybe even some new mommies are out there? Send me friend requests please! I would love to get this started again!

    I'm looking for some support as well. I am a mom of 4 ages 2, 10,11, and 14. I am a Full time computer programmer as well and am very sedentary most of the time due to the amount of computer work I do. I recently started the Ketogenics diet and lost 8 lbs so far. But could use some support from time to time.

    I sent you a fr! My kiddos are older (8 and 10), but I homeschool and work at home, so it's such a struggle to get it all to fit in a day, and making time for working out. I could use support as well, and will do what I can to support my friends as well!!!
