So, I will try to keep this as short as possible.
I have been overweight my whole life. After my first daughter was born I lost 92 pounds and was down to my lowest adult weight ever (170). I was 25 pounds from my goal weight when I found out I was pregnant with my second daughter. My body completely rebelled during my pregnancy and I gained 60 pounds. Once she was born, I was tired and had no motivation. I have gained another 40 pounds over the past 15 months. I am disgusted that I have allowed myself to get back to this point.
I met with a personal trainer today and am getting started with my new exercise regimen on Thursday. So, here's where you come in! I need recipe ideas! I need support and motivation! I need online friends who are going through the same lifestyle changes that I am, who will cheer me on and support me. If that's you, let me know! Let's do this together.
