Finally getting back on track! Been on MFP for a while but ready to get serious now. Looking for a few friends to have a support system and hold myself accountable! Feel free to add me as a friend

Hi Girls, I'm Bonnie. Mother of 1. Here to give and receive support to and from other moms!

Hello! Mom of twin 4 year olds here! Ive been really focused on my career and life that worrying about the weight I put on during my pregnancy never was an option.. even though it drove me INSANE!

I was a size 16 when I got pregnant was up to a 20-22. I am currently ( dependent on the clothes.. 14 -16 some 18's if they are jeans more so) So I have been working really hard, got a trainer with a workout plan and nutrition plan. I loved both but come NOvember when I started travelling alot for work I pretty much stopped both all together. I eat on the go bc I just cant seem to find enough hours in the day right now!

I am hoping this next week will be much better and get to the gym 2x before xmas at least!

I just need some extra support and motivation! I hope i can give that too all of you as welL!

Hi. My name is Jessica. I am a stay at home mom to a beautiful son.

I have been back and fourth with my weight since the day I had my son 5 years ago. I never suffered from weight since I was practically underweight most of my life. I was only 82 lbs and size 0 before I had my son and gain to 138 lbs being pregnant. I gave birth and my postpartum weight was 115 lbs and size 5. Nine months postpartum I decided to start getting back in shape working out everyday 3 hrs a day 2 days off and started taking diet pills as well. At that time I was in school so with the back and fourth helped as well. I went down to 105 lbs size 1 and 2. I felt better and my confidence boosted. I was doing well til I moved 2 yrs ago and found out I was pregnant. I went back up to 112 lbs in less then a month. I had a miscarriage a month later and since then my weight started increasing. I am so ready to get my sexy back and kick the pounds off.

Hello,

I am a 35 year old mother of 5 kids, ages ranging from 17 to 2 years old. I work Full Time from home, and I'm also a blogger. My kids keep me very busy, and over the past few years I've really struggled to find time to work out and plan healthy meals. I also LOVE to bake, which is a terrible hobby to have when one is overweight!

Now that my youngest is 2, I'm looking to make my health a priority starting now! I healthier me will only help make me a better mom. I'm so excited to get started, and I look forward to getting to know all of you!

Hello all! I just joined the group! My name is Shannon, I'm 35 and a mother of 5 and wife to 1! I have struggled with my weight since my first pregnancy a little over 15 years ago. A few years ago I went down to 156 and felt great, then after several medical issues and medications I ballooned up to 210. I am currently weighing in at 187 with a short-term goal of 170 and a long term goal of 147.

My issues outside of having a Pacemaker, are that I eat when I am bored and I am constantly tired and worn out and never feel like I have time to eat healthy. That has recently changed as I went from 197 to 187 over a few weeks of eating better. I work full-time M-F and find it hard to find the time to eat anything so I grab something from the vending machine between meetings. Not the best idea...my plan is to get out and walk at least 30 minutes a day a few times a week, give up the soda completely, bring my lunch and snacks to work so I stay FAR AWAY from the vending machines and make healthy choices when ever possible. My theory is that even McDonald's has a lower calorie option if I just take a few minutes to look. Of course I will be avoiding the big Mickey D's as much as possible.

Hello, Im new to MFP and this group....i had lost 18 pounds earlier in the year and hit a standstill. Now, I am determined to lose the rest of what I want to lose. I know what to do and how to do it...I just need the support and motivation to get in gear again. The first thing I did was put the treadmill in the living room so I have to see it everyday and it screams at me to use it all the time.....so here goes nothing, or I should say all the pounds. Good luck to us on this journey

Hi, moms! I am new to mfp and I am so happy to have found this group of moms who share the same goals as I do! I am looking for support and inspiration and promise to give it right back! I know we can do this! We brought life into this world! We can do ANYTHING!!!

Hi all,

I'm new to MFP. I registered a few months ago but never really used it. I'm a stay home/work from home mother. I used to be very active up until 4 years ago when I got pregnant with my 3rd daughter. After I had her and then her sister a year later I have struggled to get back to taking care of me. For one, I've been extremely tired! Part of the reason is real fatigue and the other is due to having iron deficient anemia which I didn't find out about until a little over a year ago. So, I'm here and ready to get back to being a more health me.

Hi IM new to MFP and am looking for like minded people to connect with and help get healthy. IM 177 and have a goal of 140. Feel free to add me!

My name is Bri. I joined today and I am so ready for this. I weigh 188 pounds and I want to get to at least 120 pounds. I am like so many of you. I drink a Mountain Dew to jump start my morning. I am going to have to quit because I just added it to my breakfast and almost had heart failure on the spot. I have three children ranging from 3 to 17. I have been married for over 8 years and I am looking to create more healthy meals for my family. They don't have a choice really because I do the cooking. I have a medical issue with exercise as it can be very painful when I do it and I just can't afford it either.

Hi All

I am 34, 5ft 9 and weigh 16st 6lbs (weighed on Monday), I have three children and think I need to shift the weight gained over the years. I would like to get to 11st 7 lbs and maintain that weight x good luck to everyone else with their journeys x

Hey, I'm Terry. Come over and see my page...add me if you'd like. You can never have too many friends on this quest. :happy:

Hi I'm Noleen. Working mum with 2 boys 5 and 2 years old. I work full time in the days and my hubby works evening shifts so not a lot of time to focus on exercise, but I am determined to lose 14lbs!!! Would love to have some support so feel free to add me anyone! :-)

I am new to MFP and this group. Just started on my New Years resolution today. I have been up and down so many times over the past 9 years - I am ready to do it for good this year. I am hoping this website, the phone app and joining some groups will help to get me to my goal. I am a 37 year old working mom with 2 children (7 year old girl and 9 year old boy), 4 pets and have been married for 12 years now. My hubby lost the weight about 4 years ago and I have been trying to catch up - just not succeeding. This year I think will be it - I am going to drop the weight for good!! I need some support though - so if anyone would like to friend me to keep me going - I am a great supporter as well - we can help each other!! Looking forward to being 56 pounds less by the end of the year!!
