I had to chuckle when I saw that I joined this group on Nov 26, 2012. I had a 6 month old at the time and didn't realize I was pregnant with my 2nd. Now I am a proud mama to 2 DDs- one 17 mo and the baby is 6 weeks old. So here I am, happy to be working towards the goal of losing my prepregnancy weight x2. I actually try to avoid the scale, as it is a trigger for me to get off track. Another challenge: I had symphysis pubis dysfunction with both pregnancies, which meant severe hip pain (read: much more than the regular hip pain experienced in pregnancy). Now, 6, almost 7 wks pp, I am still dealing with A LOT of pain. It is very frustrating, as I am eager to get off this weight. Taking it one day at a time, and focusing on eating healthfully to support BF.
Ironically, I am in the highest weight of my life, but I am the happiest about my body. I had 3 miscarriages before my baby girls, so I am just proud of what I was able to accomplish. Looking forward to getting to know the group better.

Welcome (back)! I have also have hip issues (different root, but still frustrating and painful) that led me to a hip arthroscopy in Feb this year. A long recovery (6 weeks on crutches) and trying to keep up w/ a full time work schedule and a 3 year old and 1 year old... so I understand the frustration a bit.... especially since my hip doesn't feel much better after all that! Good luck to you in your weight loss journey and feel free to add me!0
