    Baby weight can be so hard to get rid of! I wish I hadn't listened to all those people encouraging me to stuff my face because I was eating for two. I had just lost 30 lbs got pregnant and gained 50.

    one of the biggest mistakes woman make, thinking they have to eat for 2. but everyone can and will succeed
    just take care of yourself like you would your child.....

    I feel ur pain...Ok, ok, gotta be honest during pregnancy was the only time I did not (let me repeat that not again, NOT! :laugh: ) gain weight. But I was well over 100 lbs over an ideal, healthy weight. My highest would've probably been more like 380 vs the 280 it was, had my pregnancy experiences (I've 3 btw & my youngest is 3) been like any average girl's.

    Well, ur welcome to add me if u dare, lol.:wink:

    I feel your pain!
    I gained over 60 lbs with my pregnancy and I had a 9 lb 4 oz boy and he really did some damage to my midsection. It's definitely not what it was pre-pregnancy, but I am going to get it back to what it was as much as I can before I opt for a tummy tuck.

    Feel free to add me as support or whatever. I am on here pretty much every single day, mostly at night.
