New to MFP! 36 yr old wife & stay-at-home mother of 4

I joined MFP yesterday. Would love to have some friends to chat with. I am a 36 yr old wife and mother of 4 children. I'm a stay-at-home mom working on my RN degree (currently an LPN). I've had 4 c-sections so my tummy looks horrible. I plan to count calories and do the 30 Day Shred (ordered yesterday). I currently weigh 166 lbs (yesterday I weighed 168 lbs). My first goal weight is 150 lbs. Right after I had my 4th child (19 mths ago) I weighed less than I ever had (152 lbs). I felt fabulous.....even though that seems like a high number I was pretty thin. I'm very upset with myself for gaining weight. So, it's time to take control.

Hi there. I just joined yesterday as well.

We all know what to eat, that we need to exercise and drink lots of water. MFP adds the community and accountability aspect that I was missing. To me, that has made all the difference so far.

Welcome!
