My name is Chelsea, I'm new to myfitnesspal.com but i'm very excited about it! I just had a baby in June, and During my pregnancy I gained a whopping 95 lbs!! Yikes!! I know right, :-/ Anyways When I went into the hospital to be induced my weight was 232 lbs. when I got pregnant with her I was 145 lbs. I am down to 186 as of right now but I am still HUGE and can't fit into my prepregnancy jeans.. my goal is to be down to 130 by October 6th of next year (my wedding day!) Its definately do-able, this website just makes it a little easier
I'm looking forward to meeting some dieting pals on here, considering I don't talk about my weight or dieting with any of my close friends (they are all like barbies) and my family is extremely critical that I am going to lose TO MUCH. But I am only 5'3" so 130 lbs is perfectly healthy for my height!

Welcome! You can friend me if you'd like. I'm a Mom of 2 (almost 6 years old and 3 1/2) and STILL working on the pregnancy weight!
Just got back on the MFP wagon last week after a BAD summer of eating way too much.
