Hello everyone. My name is Andrea and I have a 4 month old. It has been a rough several months with a colicky baby, post partum, sleep deprivation, and uncontrollable cravings. I am hoping this will really help me to regain some control.

    Hi! and Welcome Andrea! I also recently had a baby, he is now 8 months old, I can't believe it! I also have a 7, 5 and 2 year old. I have lost 25 lbs since January, and I know you can do it too! If you need help to be motivated, just ask! Set your goals, and you will be one hot momma for your babys' first B-day!

    Wow! YOu are amazing. I am having the hardest time gettng motivated to do any sort of exercise. I just joined this class called Boot Camp thinking "that is exactly what I need to get into shap." Yeah, about 20 minutes into it, I had to go to the bathroom and throw up. I am so out of shape.:frown: It didnt scare me away, I am going back tonight, but can't guarntee that I wont puke again! THis time I am also gonna wear my heart monitor. Well hope all is well. :flowerforyou: I will talk to you again soon.

    I am hoping this site will help me. My biggest problem is the late night binge eating. I never used to do that. THat is where I am taking in thousands of calories right before bedtime. I need to get that under control!! Thanks for the email. Hope to talk to you again soon.:smile:

    It seems that this first one almost did me in. He was colicky, and acid reflux, was tongue tied, ended up giving himself an umbilical hernia, and also had hydroceal on his boy parts! It would be only by the grace of God that we have another on!:smile: He is 5months old now, and seems to be doing much better. He is sleeping much better too. But throughout the first few months, I would binge eat at night, and just be completely out of control. That is not like me. I am trying really hard, I do good all day and then bedtime comes and I just raid the fridge and cupboards. :frown: Did you go through anything like that??
