    i agree with the losing interest thing i am the same way it is hard to stay motivated when you are working out alone i need that someone there to push me like when i was in the marine corps.

    I'm Lea. I'm 18 5'0 and 142 lbs. I want to lose about 27 lbs at LEAST. 10 lbs by halloween would be great. I have a horrible time staying motivated with working out. I started really counting my calories a week ago and have been doing pretty well. I wanted to lose weight before I got pregnant with my daughter when I was 115 so now that I'm this much heavier I feel horrible and hate doing things like shopping for clothes and getting my picture taken. I'm really glad I found this support group.

    I'm Natasha, I'm 5'7" and right now pregnant am weighing 180lbs. I'm due Sept 17, induction going to be Sept 24 if she doesn't show up by then. Counting on BFing, diet and walking to help lose some of the weight. I want to get down to 140 lbs in the long run, but with a tighter body for the most part and be physically fit again. I started losing weight before I got pregnant, and had gotten down to 135 lbs, but then pregnancy made me pack it all back on and then some. I feel absolutely horrible right now, and I want to be able to feel healthy again!

    I'm not a mom but I am married with children and my wife had some weight to lose after our last baby.Try shakeology chocolate shakes. go to www.theperfectshakes.com and read and view the shakeology info. I started these shakes into my diet a week ago and lost 2.5lbs in a week. The idea behind them is that the shake has the alot of veggies, fiber, protein, probiotics and natural ingredients that will satisfy the body nutritionally to stop the food cravings. The probiotics will help your digestion and regularity. Basically the shakes give your body what it needs and wants so it needs for nothing else. you can also do a 3 day cleanse on these shake too. 3 shakes a day with fruit as a snack and a nice salad for dinner. I didn't do that but I plan on it real soon. a friend of mine loss 5lbs in a week and the weight didn't come back (this included excercise too!) Hope this helps! It has helped me and many others. Get the chocolate, it taste way too good to be this great for you. Don't let the price throw you for too big of a loop. It works out to $4 a shake. That's really not that bad for a meal replacement. 140 calories 14g of protein.

    How has everyone been doing today?

    DD and I walked the mall for 4 hours. I didn't have anyone to watch her and she's not 6 weeks yet so I can't take her to the gym yet. I took her in her travel system and really walked it a few times before even looking at shops. Good luck everyone!

    Yeah, I think I'll get in on weighing every Thursday morning. I can't wait to see results ....I'm so darn impatient!

    I think I've already lost a lb, though! According to some website I was reading on the other day, I shouldn't lose more than a lb a week if I'm breastfeeding. Poo on that!
