Please forgive the silly rhyme -- I'm still suffering from intense sleep deprivation from my latest little one's (lack of) sleep habits. I'm new to the community here and thought I'd start by introducing myself. I'm 29 (as of a week ago), married for 9 years, mom of a 2 1/2 year old and a 2 1/2 month old. Getting ready to move across the country next week, from the Great Northwest to the Emerald Coast of Florida. So maybe I can just sweat some of this weight off! :-)
Why did I join myfitnesspal? Well, I had a rude awakening when my mom passed off a few pairs of jeans that were too small for her now, and when I went to wear a pair in desperation when I had to do some outside chores a few weeks ago and had nothing else to wear, they DIDN'T fit!!! These are jeans that are 4 sizes larger than my pre-pregnancy jeans. I didn't expect to be back to my pre-preg shape for a few months yet, judging by my rate of weight loss last time, but this sent me for a loop. Time to get proactive about getting back into shape! Hopefully sharing my plans and progress with this community will help.

Hi & welcome
I'm mommy of two as well (2 girls three and one year). Being a mom and finding time to better yourself is very difficult! Start small and I'm sure the ball will start rolling!
