Hi! I am Mel...
I am happily married to an amazing man!! woo hoo...He is in the Coast Guard, Go CG!! I own a cool little online based (baby stuff) store, which keeps me busy, but still leaves me time to enjoy one of the best things in life...my baby girl....I have a beautiful baby girl who is 8 months old...she is the best thing that has happened to us :)
Since her birth I was unable to exercise, or diet (health reasons) and now I am 100% better and able...I am just here to look for some support...

    Hi Mel!!

    Welcome to MFP! I'm also a new mommy and will help support you along the way!! :)

    How much weight were you looking to lose? Or were you just looking to get more active?

    You and me both! I have a 7 y.o. and a 5 month old....both boys. I had health issues after the birth of my newest son that had me using a walker just to get up and go to the bathroom for several months. But I'm back and working that baby weight off! Welcome! You've come to the right place! :wink:

    I have a 10, 5, and 2 year old and this last one coupled with an illness have left me at my heaviest weight. But I think I am on the right track finally after nearly two years of frustration.

    This is a great site where you will find tons of support.

    Friend me if you'd like!

    Hi! I have a four month old and have been having such a hard time getting the baby weight off plus a few pounds I was carrying before. It's so nice to see other new mommies on here!!!

    Well it looks like alot of new mommies are using this site, yeeehhhh!! Soon I am hoping to be a yummy mommy lol not only for myself but for my man n my 5 month old son. I have been faithfully exercising n eating good for almost 4 weeks now and this week has been the hardest, guess this is when i usually give up due to not seeing results fast enough or just from exhaustion. I am not going to give up, I need to do this for my health and my family. Hope to hear from some of you on how youare doing, ttyl Laurie
  • Hey there Yummy mommy to be! That is my goal too. I am only 31 and have 4 wonderful children, however the body leaves something to be desired. Wanting to look good for my hubby because he is so understanding. He deserves a mega hot momma on his arm and I want to be that momma:) Good luck to ya!
