Hello ladies, I am new to myfitnesspal and my son will be 7 wks old tom. so I am new to all of this. I didn't gain very much weight during my pregnancy only 6 pounds total but I started out at 247lbs. At my 6 wk PP check I was weighing in at 235 so I feel that being down 12 pounds from prepregancy is a good start. I want to lose weight so that I can be healthy for my son and keep up with him when he is older. I have be a large woman since high school 15 years ago. I originally was a size 7-8 and gained all my weight quickly when I started having severe migraines. I have never been able to lose it only gain more, so I am excited to be going down in size. Looking forward to working with all you ladies towards all our goals.

    Congrats! I am also a new mom (again) I have a 3 month old girl, 6 yr old girl, 10 yr old boy, and a 12 yr old girl. I would love to get "plugged in" with some of you moms as well, I have not been as consistent as I would like and could use some accountability partnesr to remind me to come back. Hope to chat again soon! TTFN:drinker:
