Hi there! I'm a 26 year old female. Married with 2 wonderful kids. Unfortunately after getting the depo provera shot and weaning my youngest (19 months) from nursing I've gained about 30 lbs in the last year. Now it's time to take it off! Starting weight around 173lbs, 5' 4" tall. I'd like to lose 40-50 lbs, and have been steadily losing the last month or so. Watch what I eat, go to the gym. I'm fairly motivated but on the weekend I may have done something foolish. I'm standing up in my girlfriend's wedding as Maid of Honor. We went dress shopping, and as luck would have it my measurements put me between a size 16 and 18 the size 16 was going to fit everywhere but the waist. It was 2 " too small there. Well that's the one I ordered! Now I HAVE to lose some belly fat! lol anyways I'm optimistic I can do it, just looking for some encouragement and friends along the way! Nothing like pressure to make a girl sweat! I also bought the jillian mickeals ripped dvd so may do some of that. Anyways that's me, hope to find some lovely people to join my journey!
