Hi I am Stephanie I am 35 and the mother of 6, 2 step sons 21 and 19 and my 4 monsters 2, 5, 7, and 9. After having 4 kids and 4 c-sections my body just isn't what it once was! I don't care what anybody says breastfeeding didn't help me lose weight I gained. I had the appetite of a football player. Funny thing was I lost the weight when I weaned my babies until #4. That l c-section really took everything out of me. I would try to go out for walks with the new baby and if it hadn't been for the stroller there was no way I could have stood up straight. I just had no core I still don't have much even almost 3 years later. I have a severe diastasis recti. Which basically means all of my muscles are completely seperated on my stomach. So I actually need a tummy tuck to fix it. But before I can do it I have at least 30lbs to lose. So here I am trying again to get the baby weight off!

    Welcome to MFP! I have about 70 lbs to lose, most of that is baby weight. I have 4 kids, 9, 6, 2, and 4 mo. This site has really helped me to get on track. I'm nowhere near perfect at it, but I do feel better. Feel free to add me!
