Hi. I'm a mom of 3, the youngest a 5 month old. After my 1st child, I was looking and feeling great at a size 4/6. I'm now a size 14/16 and have a closet full of "skinny" clothes I really want to get back into. Any support or encouragement would be greatly appreciated!

    Welcome!

    I hear you on the closet full of skinny clothes. That's what I'm going through too. Only, I didn't have a baby - I just ate too much high calorie/high fat food for a year. I thought my metabolism could handle a little extra food like it used to be able to. Not any more it seems.

    I refuse to buy many bigger sized clothes. I want to wear the clothes I had!!!

    Welcome! I'm pretty new, too, and like you, I have a closet full of clothes that I cannot wear. It seems much less expensive, not to mention healthier, to get back into the old clothes than to buy new. I didn't have a baby, just a desk job and a passion for eating and drinking.

    I love the calorie counter. I leave it up at work during the day so whenever I think of reaching for a granola bar, I remember that those calories will count and reduce what I have left during the day. Instead, I see the water counter and reach for another glass.

    Good luck!
