I'm a 23 year old mom to a VERY energetic 15 month old boy. I played softball throughout my life growing up and went on to play at a 4 year university in California. I returned home and had my son just over a year ago...I gained 80 pounds during my pregnancy :(. Pre-pregnancy I was 150 pounds and in the best shape of my life! Yet here I am, 233lbs now...trying to get my body back! I just began "Supreme 90 Day System" program...which is pretty much a P90x knock off....wish me luck!! And good luck to everyone else with their weightloss and nutrition management goals as welL!

    I just started MFP. I am 26 i have no kids... but i can relate as far as being active. I was 130-150 throughout highschool and early college, I played Tennis and Golf. It was my junior year in college that started to blow up. I was sitting in an Studio All Day eating and doing projects... then after college i got a desk job. NOT GOOD! now im 230lbs! I started taking cross fit classes religiously within the last 3 weeks and can feel a difference in my body tone and my endurance level is much higher then it was before! They directed me to do the paleo diet but that was too much... so now i count my calories on this app. So far i have lost 5 bls in 3 weeks! Slow and steady wins the race. You'll get it off! Good Luck!
