    Hi. I am in the same boat. I just had a baby six weeks ago. I am currently 192. I only gained 15 pounds with my pregnancy and I lost 10 of it so far. But before I got pregnant, I gained 30-40 pounds over a three year period. My mom suddenly passed away, and I just stopped taking care of myself. Anyway, I'm ready to get back to my old self again. I would like to get down to like 145. I started working out two weeks ago, very lightly since I had a c-section. My doctor lifted all restrictions today, so I need to get moving. I think it would be great if we could motivate each other.
  • Feel free to add me. I'm 5'8" currently at 189. My goal is between 150-160 (I have a large build and large muscles!)
