Hi! I'm Dawn. I just joined MFP today, and it seems like this might be just what I need to help me reach my goals. I'm a new mommy (DD is 3 months old) and I have about 45 lbs to lose. I can't say that it's really "baby weight" since I was working to lose weight before I got pregnant, but I'm just having such a hard time finding the motivation to get back on the weight loss journey I was on. I would love to find others with similar situations to help support and encourage each other!!!

    Hi! I've been blaming my wobbly bits on my babies but as my youngest turns 2 in a fortnight, I cant really do that anymore! Hence my determination to get back into my UK size 10 jeans. Add me if you like I'm always looking for new 'friends' x
