Hi All,

I know so many set out during each new year to lose weight. I had my 4th child last February and gained over 40 lbs. and haven't lost any of it. With my other pregnancies it gradually came off but not this one. I am determined to get it off and more importantly get healthy. My weight in numbers is not so important to me as just feeling good again and being able to keep up with my kids. I don't want to be the fat Mom going to the park and just watching them have fun, I want to have fun. I am currently 214 lbs and ready to get on with my life!!!

    It took me 2 years to lose the weight I gain with each pregnancy, just in time to get pregnant again! Except the last one. Here I am 9 years later, still trying to get back to pre-pregnant weight. And it was my fourth too! I am at critical stage where I get to 10lbs of reaching that pre-pregnant weight, and I gain it all back. This time I want to get 15lb below my pre-pregnancy weight... So 25lbs to go. Welcome to MFP. Hope we can help each other through this journey. Add me if you wish!
