Mommy of 1! Before the baby I was 142 at 5'6 and a half. Afterwards I was left at 170. Shortly after I started hitting the gym and lost almost all of the baby weight! Yay, go me!

Well, some big things happened and I gained it all back including a little more. I joined MFP earlier this year and followed through for a week and lost 5 lbs! I loved the way I felt! One day I woke up and completely forgot I was dieting. Has that happened to you?
Anyways, this time I mean business. Eating right, drinking my water, don't get me wrong, I still snack though but I have better control and make sure to not buy things that can ruin my diet.

I put myself on a 1200 calorie diet. This is the end of week one and I have lost 4 lbs so far, woo hoo! Looking for other friends, mothers for motivation just to check in or keep in touch!
