My name is Jessica. I am 26 years old and have a beautiful son. I am currently a stay at home mom. I am engaged to the love of my life, 7 years and still going strong. I love to have fun and laugh. I love to read anything that captivates my interests. I love to go to the movies, dancing, shopping, and taking pictures. I love any activity that includes the outdoors. I'm interested in almost all activities, so finding something to do, should never be a problem.

I am short 4' 10". The ideal weight for my height is 91 lbs to 120 lbs.

I have been back and fourth with my weight since the day I had my son 6 years ago. I never suffered from weight since I was practically underweight most of my life. My pre pregnancy weight I was only 82 lbs size 0/00. During the course of my pregnancy I gain 58 lbs reaching to 138 lbs. My postpartum weight was 115 lbs 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, ate once a day, attending school, cook, cleaning, and taking care of a baby helped decrease my weight. I went down to 105 lbs size 1/2. I felt better and my confidence boosted. I was doing well til I moved 3 yrs ago and found out I was pregnant. I went back up to 112 lbs in less then a month. I had a miscarriage and since then my weight started increasing. I am so ready to get my sexy back and kick the pounds off.

Hey everyone! I'm a 38 year old mother of 3 who needs to lose a few pounds (20 or so) and would love any advice you can give me. I need exercise tips, diet tips etc. My main problem with my diet is alcohol I think. I am trying to cut that out but would love to add some friends for support. Nice to meet you all and looking forward to working together

Hi I'm Valerie

Hi everyone!

I'm Nadia. 26, mom of 2 aged 5 and 2. I live in Alberta, Canada. I enjoy food (duh) general craftyness, crochet being my favourite, nerdy things and wine.

I've been working to drop some of the weight from having babies and just recently decided to really kick it up a notch. So MFP has been a great kick in the butt, the support has been awesome.

So, I've decided to take part in a 30 day shred challenge as well as daily yoga, walking and other activity.

Nice to meet you all and feel free to add me.

Hi Moms! My name's Jessie, and I'm looking forward to meeting some awesome and encouraging moms out there! I'm 28, with two little girls, and a full time job. My goal is to lose 60lbs and get healthy, without projecting any of my body/food issues on to my girls. Feel free to add me!

Hi all!

I'm a mom to a beautiful little girl who is going to be 1 soon. After losing all of my baby weight gained shortly after my daughter was born, I have gained most of it back, and am really motivated to finally lose it all. My CW is 217 and my GW is 150, so I have about 65-70 lbs to lose! My short term goal is just to get under 200 lbs though

Hello,

I am a stay at home mom to 4 kids. My goal is to lose 75 pounds. Looking for motivation and support!

hi there! my name is Amy and I am a stay at home mama of 5 beautiful children ages 11, 10, 9, 7 and 4! I am married to an amazing man. I am a photographer. i am here to lose about 15-20 pounds, and track my calories so I don't binge:) Feel free to add me!!!

Hi! I'm Jen and have been using myfitnesspal off and on for a while, mostly off. I have decided that it is time to get serious and really lose these last pounds that are driving me crazy. I want to be fit and healthy for me. I should probably have said my kids (who are 5 and 18 months), but I truly feel that it has to be for me or I won't sick with it. I like to run but I REALLY REALLY REALLY like cake, well mostly the frosting!

I hear, rather read , your predicament. I too have struggled with the pop addiction and found finding a substitute was helpful. Iced tea, hot tea, and flavored water are great, but what really helped was seltzered waters. The carbonation is cut out but the fiz is not.

Eatting enough calories is a trial and error process. Try reading the Metabolism Miracle and see what you think. It helped me get started on the process of loosing wieght and get moving.

Your a step ahead of me by joining a support group in the first place. I am new here too and am re commiting to weight loss after struggling for a year now. Seriously though, the Metabolism Miracle did help re teach what our dietary needs actually are though and they do promote a healthy carbohydrate balance in our final maintaince program.

Good luck and I hope we can chat more.
