Well I am 29 and have a 9 month old son. I have always been a big girl I was about 410 at my heaviest ( I quit keeping track but do know I reached 400lbs) I lost about 95lbs got pregnant only gained 20lbs total but now I am heavier than when I was preggo and I refuse to go back to 400lbs so I am starting my weight loss again and now that I kind of have this new baby thing figured out I think it will be easier to lose and not gain.... I look forward to losing weight with you ladies....1

I'm 23, mom to 3 (ages 3, 2, and almost 1) and one on the way. Right now I'm logging to keep the pregnancy gain under control (was up 30lbs at 24 weeks lol...umm no). I'm on bedrest for preterm labor so working out is not possible so healthy eating is a must (I'm on maintenance calories).
I'm 5'10" and my normal weight with no dieting/carefree is 170lbs. I got back to that weight after having my third child in December 2010 (total loss in 6 months = 60lbs). The past three years have been all about pregnancy gain/weight loss, REPEAT!! Lol.0 -

Hi, I'm 36 with a 5 month old son. I have been yo yo dieting for years. Lost a lot of weight (35 lbs) while pregnant due to all day sickness and put it all back again by eating all round me when I had the baby. Am heavier now than I was at 9 months pregnant! I have about 55 pounds to lose and hopefully get rid of sore ankles and joints! Looking forward to joining you all.0

Hi ladies! I'm 27 with a 14 month old daughter. My goal is to get back to my pre-preg weight of 175. After that 165 was my wedding weight and 150 is my supposed "ideal" weight for my height (5'10"). So I have a series of goals I'm hoping to acheive.0

Hello!
I´m another one who will be 40 in January.
I have 2 daughters aged 3 and 4, and I just really need to get off my backside and lose the weight ... I was once (oh so long ago) 62Kg ... I´m now 73kg ... I just want to get to around 65Kg and I´ll be delighted.
I´m not very active, and I love to cook ... something has to change! As I´ve been struggling with motivation, I have just ordered the Paul McKenna CD and have joined you lovely ladies in the hope that this time I can keep going. Usually I lose 4 or 5Kg and then put it straight back on, it`s SO demoralising ....
BUT NOT THIS TIME!
So a big hello from sunny Germany ... and let´s GO!0 -

Welcome!
With a little support I know you can achieve greatness! I know it is very hard with kids that we lose sight of ourselves. This time its time for us moms to be a little selfish now and focus on us! I just lost a pant size since I joined a little over 2 weeks ago! So here's to us!!! PROST!!!0 -
Hi everyone! I am a full time mommy of 4 boys, ages 7, 5, 3, and 9 and 1/2 months old. I am 27 and have been married to my husband since we were both 19. Just last year, and the first 5 months of my pregnancy I weighed in at 132-136. I now weigh 172 and am just really missing my old body, and energy! I hope to lose 5 pounds a month, and be back to my old self by July of next year. I just joined this site 2 days ago, and can already feel my determination rising each day! Feel free to add me as a friend, the more support the better :happy:0
