I am a new mom the 2nd time around! I gained 38lbs., I have lost 18lbs. and still have 20lbs. to lose to get back to prepregnancy weight but I would love to lose 25-30lbs!!! Just got the all clear to exercise from the Doctor yesterday! Can't wait to get the weight off!! Need a group to help keep me motivated and challenged.

    I'll be happy to be your friend, but I'm still trying to lose weight. AND...he's almost 17 months old. HAHAH... No, I was able to lose all pregnancy weight fairly quickly. But, when I got pregnant I was at the top of my "healthy range". I would like to be at the lower end. I'm working on it...

    Good luck.... Just keep thinking of your little one and that will be motivation enough!

    I'm with you Deb! I have the same weightloss goal.....at least you didnt gain as much as I did. I gained 60 lbs (first pregnancy) but I've already lost 30 and have about 30 more lbs to go! I posted my prepragnancy pictures up to keep me motivated and focused on the long term goal.....that might help you too?? Good luck and congrats on the new addition :)
