Hi, my name is Deanna and I am a 23yr old stay at home mommy to 5 kids. 3of which I have given birth too and 2 that are my step children. I have never had a problem with my weight and have always been able to excersice a couiple times a week and just watch what I eat, and never have to worry about gaining a pound! That is defenitly not the case anymore. I'm guessing good ole age would be a major factor in that! I did my weigh in yesterday and I weigh 153, eesh and I want to be back to my pre-pregnancy weight which was 130 so 23lbs of some unwated pregnancy weight is still hangin around and our son is 19months old! I'm ready to kick into high gear and loose this weight before summer, but that isn't reasonable enough time so by June 5th I'd like to have dropped 10lbs that's my goal. Wish me luck.

    Welcome! I'm 23 as well, but I'm looking to lose all the weight I put on in college (and then some). 10 pounds by June is doable if you work at it and keep eating healthy foods. Best of luck! Feel free to add me as a friend if you want some extra support along the way :)

    Welcome! This site is going to do wonders if you keep up with logging :) I am 27 and gained some weight with age as im assuming my metabolism slowed down. Good luck with your journey! :)

    Hi, I am a mother of two a 10yr old daughter and a 16 month old son, I am very eager to lose weight, some times I want it so bad, i was thinking about getting the lapband. I work five days a week 7:00am to 3:30pm I walk 8 blocks to get home from the babysitter's house to mines, I'm thinking that is my excersie, but I'm feeling like that is not enough. I am also working hard on portion controll and the foods that I eat and my kids, I'm trying eat healthy, everything is so hard right now. HELP HELP!!!
