Losing my baby weight 3 years later

mommyboots

Hello everyone! My name is Natalie, and I will be 29 on January 9th. My daughter Nellie is turning 3 on January 20th, and I am finally taking real steps to losing the baby weight (Even though I'm pretty sure it's not baby weight anymore after three years....)

I live in Tennessee. I've been tracking my calories and exercise since 12/17 and have lost 3 pounds so far. I'm not a stranger to losing weight. My weight has fluxuated my entire adult life but I am my heaviest I've ever been at 206 pounds.

I work full-time, and have been married for 7 1/2 years. I love to sing, write, read, watch movies, go online. I write a blog called Mommy Boots (http://mommyboots.com)

Looking forward to meeting some new friends and getting the motivation that I've needed for the past THREE YEARS!

Thanks love! I didn't think one day I'd be seeing that number on my ticker :-) I still have a ways to go... but, you will get there too! Super happy for you... 3 pounds to start off is awesome, pretty soon those numbers will add up and you'll be to your goal weight in no time!

Welcome! I have a 3 year old son who will be 4 in June, and a daughter who will be 2 in May. I was back at the gym when each of mine was 7 weeks old...mad haha. I lost the weight after my son, but put it all on and more with my daughter. I've now lost 55lbs since my daughter was 7/8 weeks old and am the smallest I've been for a long time.

I'm 35, I live in England and I work part time as a secondary school French teacher. I've been married for 4.5 years, but we've been together nearly 10 years.

Feel free to add me!

I have baby weight from 8 years ago that I'm trying to get rid of! Sending friend request.

Took me 2 1/2 to get rid of mine, but I didn't keep it off because I didn't stick with exercise. This is a lifetime commitment if you are going to make it a lifestyle change. I'm in maintenance, but around almost every day if you are looking for friends to motivate you.

Good luck on your journey! Great start so far--3 pounds during the holiday season is a wonderful way to begin.

lol - it's taken me 23 years to seriously resolve to lose the baby weight. I started on Valentine's Day, and after 10+ months, I'm almost to my goal.

Hey hun. I just had my 4th baby 6 months ago and I have lost all of my baby weight. Exercise and changing my eating habits. I can actually say that I weigh today what I weighed before I had my first child. You can do it. I know you can. Just keep going, never give up. Workout and eat better. Work at it. It won't take forever just keep working at it.

Glad to meet you! Your success is inspiring! Will definitely add you as a friend

Thanks for the support! I have been very active in the past, and have had success dropping weight when I was younger and had no children. I've always fallen out of my old habits. I am hoping this time those habits will stick, and I will be able to maintain a healthy lifestyle and not succumb to the temptations of beer and pizza like in the past =P

56 pounds - definitely inspiring! Congratulations on almost making your goals! So awesome.

mommyboots

Hi, my name is Amber and I am 32. I am a mother of two beautiful kids. My son is 7 and my daughter is 3. I have lost weight on and off over the years but never met my goal. I am at my heaviest I have ever been. I have high blood pressure, no energy, and just literally feel like poo all the time. I hope myfitnesspal and the communities will help me to finally meet my weight loss goals.

Hi, I just had baby number three 4 weeks ago. Was told I couldnt get pregnant anymore so was a bit of a shock! I developed SPD in this pregnancy and that has just motivated me more than ever to get as fit and healthy as I can be. No more babies for me so this time is the last time I will lose the baby weight!!
