Hi! I dont really know what to say but I am new to this dieting stuff. I have never really cared before now. If I can be any help to anyone let me know! I fully believe the buddy system works. Any other new moms out there?

    congrats on the new baby, and on joining. Try not to look at it as dieting, but as a lifestyle change, because it's really a lifetime commitment :flowerforyou:

    Hi I am a new mom to a 2 yr old....so maybe not so new anymore:tongue: WELCOME! I gained 60lbs during my pregnancy:sad: and I am still 40 lbs over where I want to be. It is so difficult when you let yourself go. I can totally relate...But it is not impossible to change I am so determined. I love this site! Makes it so easy to count calories and realize how many calories certain foods have. You can do it!:flowerforyou:
