Hi, I'm a 25-year old Mom of 2 beautiful twin girls, Mackenzie and Isabella.
I'm looking for friends to help motivate me and help me be accountable!
I lost 85 pounds before I got pregnant, (I was told I wouldn't be able to get pregnant due to my PCOS at my heavier weight) and it was a huge surprise (a bigger surprise to find out I was pregnant with twins.) I started my weight loss journey at almost 300 pounds and got down to 215--I was 20 pounds away from my overall goal of 195, when I'd found out I was pregnant. I was running 5-12km most days of the week and strength training and felt so healthy and fit and did a plus size model shoot in Calgary . . . but now, due to my pregnancy I gained a lot of weight back and I'm in the 240's now. As soon as I found out I was pregnant I was so worried about miscarrying that I stopped exercising cold turkey : ( --I regret that now and I feel so out of shape, I can't wait to start running again!! I get so mad at myself when I can't jog for that long. I was running 5km in 28 minutes and 10 km in 1:04!!
I'm excited to get back in shape and get healthy!! I'm looking for friends who are interested in supporting and yet challenging one another and helping to motivate!!
