Hello! I am here to finish losing my extra weight. In October of 2008 I weighed 275 lbs. By counting calories I lost my first 45 lbs by March of 2009. Then in July 2009 I got pregnant. I was lucky and only gained 16 lbs during my pregnancy which I lost immediately thanks to my 9 lbs 2 oz baby girl! I was extremely sick after I had her and lost another 20 lbs in a matter of a few weeks. Which left me at 210 lbs.

When my daughter was 4 weeks old we moved 350 miles away. My fiancée is a truck driver and is only home every other weekend, I stay home with our daughter. I did great through the summer and managed to lose another 10 lbs. I was so proud to get to 200 lbs! But then somehow I lost all motivation. The stress of being in this new place and staying home with a baby while not knowing ANYONE in the whole state of Ohio really got to me. And I have gained 12 lbs since last fall.

But now I'm ready! I've started counting my calories and I'm looking forward to working out and getting rid of the rest of this extra weight!
