Hi! I’m Krista. I’m new here and looking to lose about 25 lbs. I had my son almost three years ago. I had a traumatic emergency C Section and then had to have additional surgeries on my stomach to repair damage done. I think I kept the weight on because I was avoiding anything to do with my abdomen. :) In any regard, I’m ready to lose it and get back to a size 3. I’ve been exercising, watching my calorie intake, drinking lots of water. I’m hoping it comes off soon :)

    Hi Krista,

    Welcome to mfp.. sorry to hear you had such a rough go, but this is a great place to be - fantastic support and friendships can be found here. I've been on here for 25 days now (I've lost 8 lbs so far) and absolutely love it!

    I wish you all the luck on here. If you want, you can add me as a friend, and you can join my network of support.

    good luck

    I know where you're coming from. I've never had a c section (I don't have any kids) but I did have an oomphectomy, which is the same procedure. That was almost 2 years ago and I'm still a little gun shy about straining my abdominal muscles, even though I'm 100% healed now. Good luck!
