I use MFP to get down to my goal weight in 2011, I was so happy. I got pregnant, stopped logging, lost most of my friends on here. Now that I've had my son, I'm looking to get back on track and lose this baby weight! Looking for new friends for support and who I can help support :) Feel free to add me!

    I had a baby on 11/23/12 and was only able to lose 10 pounds of the 23 pounds when I got pregnant again. I just had my baby on 11/08/13 and I am looking forward to being able to lose the baby weight plus some :tongue:

    Hey everyone!
    I just had a baby girl on Oct 20th, 2013 and can't wait to lose the baby weight! I put on about 60 lbs during my very long pregnancy (she was 2 weeks late and still wouldn't come so I was induced and had a c section). So since I am still recovering from my surgery, I can't really do any vigorous exerises, but I am walking with her, and I have a treadmill too that I plan to actually start using! I also have a post baby boot camp video I am going to start as soon as I get the go ahead.
    Since the delivery, I am down to 229lbs. So far I am going to start focusing on healthy eating. Which, btw, I am finding extremely difficult with a newborn! I sleep when she sleeps, and I dont actually have time to make and eat MEALS. Anyone else having that problem?

    Sending you a friend request! My '"baby" just turned one and I had promised myself that the weigt would be gone by now. It took me this long to finally get serious.

    I am still trying to lose the weight I put on from my first! My second was born in July so I have another 8 months of mat leave to get myself fit and confident before I go back to work.

    My girl is almost 9 months. I started working on losing my baby weight about 3 months ago and Im down 30lbs and working on the last 5lbs of baby weight! Im still breastfeeding. With my previous 2 kiddos, I couldn't lose the weight until they were closer to a 18months. Im super excited about losing what I have and Im ready to lose the weight I needed to lose before I got pregnant. Add me!
  • Me too! My lil guy is 4 1/2 months old. I gained way too much weight during pregnancy. So far, I've lost a total of 50 lbs and have a little over 30 left to lose! Best of luck to you :)
  • @namaste1987- I did too at first. I also had a c-section which was tough b/c I wasn't cleared to work out until 7 weeks postpartum. Drove me nuts, I was sooo looking forward to getting started and losing this weight ASAP.

    It gets better. Some things to help were keeping quick/healthy foods nearby-practically lived off of yogurt, granola bars and protein bars. It's tough, but again, gets better so best of luck and hang in there!
  • Im a mother too. U can add me if u want. I know how hard it is to lose the baby weight.

    My son is 9 months old :) I've got 25 pounds to go. I lost 10 right off the bat. He was almost 2 weeks late, I feel like all I did that last couple weeks was lay around and eat. I was active at the beginning of the pregnancy, but stopped around 5 months. I regret that now! So nice to meet you all!

    Anyone feel free to add me! I log daily, have an open diary & support my friends.
    I am a 25 yr old sahm of a 2 yr old. I weighed 150 before I got pregnant. I Weighed 167 in July & now I weigh 136. I don't have a gym membership so I find ways to workout at home (play outside with my kiddo, Youtube videos, etc). Food wise, I eat everything I did before, just smaller portions. You got this!

    hi! My lil guy just turned 14 months and I have 7 lbs to go before im back and i cant seem to do it so i am trying this app a friend told me about it and i love it i already lost 1lb in 1 week. Do you feel like you can eat a few things here and there not to healthy as long as you stay in your calorie rang, and it wont destroy your diet??? i feel so guilty , i work out once or twice a week i feel too guilty going with my son being home, he comes first! even if my husband watches him, i want time with him too. :) how much are you looking to lose? :)

    I guess you can say I am trying to loose my baby weight too. I gained 60+ with my first and ended up with gestational diabetes with the second two. My youngest is still nursing at 1.5 yrs old and I am hoping to start getting the after baby weight off. I have 100 pounds to loose and giving myself about a year and a half or so to do so cause we have a big family vacation to Disney planned shortly after that, and my kids will need someone able to ride the rides with them.

    We are planning a Disney World vacation next November. My goal is to actually be in the pictures instead of hiding behind the camera
