Hello everyone! I am a working mommy of 4. We have 3 girls and a little boy...Since we are done having kids I thought it about time I try to lose that baby weight for good :D I used to be very thin but have not been able to get off the extra weight now that I am a mommy. The biggest thing standing in my way is that I have very little extra time....Well, that and the fact that my husband loves to cook, especially bread. I want to wish everyone on here the very best. We can do it!!!!!!!!!! :D

    Hello There!

    Good luck to you. I am in the same boat although I only have two kiddos. I feel it is time since we decided not to have anymore. I am working on losing all the weight that I gained since I got pregnant the first time. I can understand it is difficult not having alot of extra time. I am a full time college student online and then the two kids and a husband that works a lot. Add me if you want to and we can chat on here and help each other stay focused. Hope this isnt too forward. lol.

    I'm looking at losing all the post-baby weight!

    I lost 40# being pregnant, then gained it all back (plus some of its friends!) within about eight weeks after giving birth. Now I'm trying to get rid of it again, so that I can go into a second pregnancy on better footing (I conceived at 222#, hit 41w5 at 222#, and was miserable getting "the fat chat" every other week despite not gaining a single pound all pregnancy, and had some provider-bias complications due to my size {oddly, my weight after delivery was about 180, which is NOT bad for my composition!} and I do NOT want to do that again).

    Good luck getting rid of the baby weight!
