Well I'm new here .... I just had a baby 3 weeks ago and i've lost about 25 lbs since having her. But I'm far from being a "fit and active" mom. I quit smoking after being a smoker for 10 years now so I have that on top of being "fat". I need to get in shape so I can enjoy my kids. I want to be able to run around with my 4 year old without feeling like I'm going to die!! So that is why I'm here. I need this so badly I need and want to lose atleast 60 lbs.:indifferent:

    Welcome aboard! Most of the women on here are trying to lose "baby weight" so you're definitely not alone. It will take patience. But just dig in, read the blog at the top; read the forum rules, log your foods in, and you're off! Sometimes when I get discouraged I just go through and read people's profiles and see how much they've lost and how they've gotten through their plateaus, and it encourages me to stay the course.

    You are not alone.:flowerforyou:

    Welcome to the fam... :happy:

    Soon you can get new baby into stroller and your 4 year old on his bike with training wheels and take off walking. Pick a time each day and start slow because you are still healing.

    You're children are fortunate to have such a GREAT role model for a mom. :happy:
