    My son is nearly 4 and I joined MFP after having him. I lost all my baby weight (65 lbs) and it wasn't nearly as hard as I expected it to be once I started logging on here and using the MFP tool. After having my daughter in Dec I jumped back on and am planning to lose this weight as well but hopefully much sooner. Last time I was counting on breastfeeding to melt it all away (ha! I didn't lose any weight BFing) and this time its all MFP. :)

    Good luck - it can be done!

    my 2nd son is 5 1/2 months old. I have a diet plan that i got from a registered dietician 3 months ago and i stick to it night and day even though i don't stopped seeing her over a month ago.

    I work out usually when my baby is awake now and my 3 year old is sleeping. I pop the baby into his swing or jumperoo and put on jillian michaels. sometimes the baby is great and finds my high kicks entertaining and i can do 40 minutes, sometimes i can do 30 and sometimes i can only do 20. I do what i can, leave about 200-300 calories extra a day, and loose about a pound a week.

    the reason i'm successful now is because my diet is easy to follow, i love healthy food anyway, and i love to workout. But i've also learned to not feel guilty when i miss a workout or when i have an extra bite of chocolate. sometimes the best thing is to let go, move on, and pick up where you left off.
