    I am a 37 year old mother of 3 (12, 9, and 2). Before I got pregant with my daughter I had lost 54 lbs and kept it off for a year. After having her i put most of it back on. Over the past 7 months I have lost close to 60 lbs and have another 20 lbs to go. I have been slacking a little bit during the holidays but getting serious again next week. I would love to share you journey with you. Send me a friend request if you would like as I like to support people on their journey and enjoy receiving their support as well.

    I am 32 with 5 kids ages 10,9,5, and twin 2yr olds. I have about 60 lbs to lose to get to 140. Love to have friends in the same boat. Other moms understand the time restraints and other obstacles!

    I just turned 34 in November, and just recently moved 900 miles away from my home. The move has added an entire new layer of stress that never encountered before; consequently with the move came added pounds. I already needed to slim down and tone up and the move added even more poundage. But now no more excuses! I have 2 boys 5 & 7, who are are incredibly active. I have about 50 lbs to lose, but shooting for 30 to begin with. I'd like to be noticeably smaller by the time I go back home for spring break! Let's do this!

    Hello! I'm 35 and mum to a gorgeous 3.5 year old son and 19 month old daughter.

    I piled on the weight when I was pregnant with my daughter (they say girls steal your beauty...I want it back now please :laugh: ).

    I started back exercising when she was 7 weeks old and have lost 55lbs since then. I now weigh 164 and my aim is around 150, possibly lower. I'm 5'6".

    Feel free to add me.

    I am 37 years old and I have 7 kiddos. (12 year old twins, 11 year old daughter, 9 year old son, 7 year old daughter, 4 year old daughter and our baby... 3 year old son.) and although I am not the heaviest I have ever been, I am very overweight. I'm making my weight loss and HEALTH a priority now. I want to be here for them, for a long time. They have seen me lose weight, gain it back, lose it again, and gain it back, so many times. I am determined now that they will see me lose it and keep it off!! I try not to talk about my weight much anymore. I want health and happiness to be the focus they see. I'm making the changes that I know I need to so that this is a way of life, not only for me, but for them as well. I want to set a healthy example. I would hate for any of my children to struggle with weight the way that I have. It would break my heart.

    If anyone would like to add me as a friend, that would be great. I could use the support and I will be there to give support! :)

    just copy and paste the link

    This looks awesome. I have signed up to try it. I am also currently doing Jillian Michaels Body Revolution but I would love to have an extra challenge. My husband is behind me telling me I'm crazy (in a joking sort of way) and he's probably right, lol. But I've only got one life to live and I want it to be my best!

    I am 35 and have a four year old son, getting ready to turn 5. I feel like I am on a roller coaster, I have done good going on three weeks now and today I went to my three year old neice's birthday party, I did not feel like I ate a lot but when I keyed it in WOW. It's days like this I just want to quit. I feel like the highs of success and the lows of failure are exhausting!! This is really hard feel free to add me, I need all the support I can get!!

    hey lovely Mummy's/mamas!

    I am 35, mum to a little girl of 20 months and have a stack of weight to lose

    Last year was the pits for me in many ways but I determined to make changes and choose my own fate a little more

    I always thought that losing the weight would somehow just be easier once I had the baby WRONG

    I ate through the tiredness at least

    I would love to have other Mums as friends as I think we often seek support in those in same or similar situations and also to see how you manage food planning etc xx
