in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone, I'm Lori, 24, mommy of two - and according to my stats I am technically "obese". I sure don't feel like it! Until I look in a mirror or try to keep up with my crazy toddler!

I am on a mission! I need a complete and permanent lifestyle change, and I'm ready to be a healthy role model for my kids! I have an almost two-year-old, and I just had a baby girl on Mother's Day of this year. So I am 6 weeks postpartum and ready to start my journey!

Please feel free to add me and aide in my journey! And I would love to be a part of yours as well! :) Best of luck to everyone!

    Congrats on the new baby! I hate those labels of obesity. My doctor said the same thing, and all it did was piss me off :smile:
    With my first I gained about 25 lbs, lost some, then with my second i gained about 35 lbs. I didn't lose much after him though :mad:

    Good luck with your new diet! It's definitely not easy with young kids

    Hi! I had 5 kids and I can relate of how hard it is to lose weight with younger kids and a newborn. Just ignore the label and keep doing what you're doing, it's obviously working! You're doing a great job!
