motivated mama 1st week of mfp

I just had my 3rd child in July and have only gained more weight since having her. Being home with the kids, I sometimes get bored and thats when I start mindless snaking. My weakness is my sweet tooth and I am really trying to fight the urge to bake this year. Being the holiday season, I usually pick up a lot of unwanted pounds. This is what prompted me to start dieting and working out now instead of waiting until the new year. I always say I will start better habbits for new years but I never do it. I am hoping by using this sight I will succeed this time. I have already noticed a major change in my attitude and I have only been doing this for a week now. By seeing the number of calories consumed and how much burned from my workouts, I am more motivated than ever. I am actually having fun. The best part is the phone app.
