Hi everybody
My name is Sophie and I'm 23 years old. I have 3 young children (4 years old, 2 years old and 1 year old). I was quite poorly with my first pregnancy and lost a lot of weight due to sickness for the full 9 months! My second pregnancy went well but I put on quite a bit of weight and never really lost it when I got pregnant for the third time. Since have my last baby, I have piled on more weight. I'm almost 2 stone overweight. I've tried Slimming World but my weight was up and down so I turned to calorie counting. Yesterday was my first day and so far so good. I feel great for cutting out fizzy drinks and juice already. I've never drank so much water. I'm hoping to reach my target weight in 6 months and get rid of my flabby baby belly! Wish me luck :)

    Hi Sophie, I live in the USA. Congrat's on cutting out the fuzzy drinks. I'm not quite sure what they are but they sound a bit sugary. If you would like a friend from across the pond feel free to add me.

    Hi there
    Fizzy drinks are the sugary soda's etc. I used to have at least 2-3 glasses a day.
