in Introduce Yourself
Hi there!!

I am a SAHM with 2 kiddos. When I was PG with my #1, I managed to get back to my pre-PG weight of 50kg within 1.5 years. However, after giving birth to my #2, I am having a tough time loosing weight. I am currently about 61kg and I hope to get back to my pre-PG weight of 50kg before the year is over.

Hope to get to know you all soon!

    Hi and welcome

    Same story here
    After baby #1 I was back into my pre-pg jeans in about 12 weeks
    After #2......I kept on the 25+pounds for 3 LONG years
    I came herein Jan 08 and have since lost the weight and kept it off (I've gone up/down about 3 pounds) for the past year

    GOOD LUCK and hope to see you on the boards!

    Hi Kim!:smile:
    Thanks for the warm welcome and your post. It really helps to hear that I am not alone and I will be able to loose those pounds coz I am feeling so loss and the Mummies whom I know IRL kept telling me that if I do not loose it within 1 year after my delivery, it will stay forever.

    Thank you for showing me that I can do it coz you did!!!
    Congrats to you!!!:drinker:

    Good Luck Jade Pearl, Im Donna Benson, Im trying to loose 35 pounds, Its really hard for me because I quit smoking 6 months ago, and seem to eat more than ever! Iv'e been walking everyday 3 to 6 miles, It really feels great, But the weight just doesn't seem to come off, My doctor recommended this site, And so far I really like it, I was on another site, called my calorie counter, But This one seems to be alot better, because it rewards you with extra calories! I thought that was neet!
