in Introduce Yourself
Hello there, I am jumping back on the bandwagon and looking for new friends. Now that I have 2 small children I need to be in shape to have the energy and ambition to keep up with them! Right before I got pregnant with my second I was on track and doing so well! I even weighed less than I did pre-baby number 1. Yet, I still can't remember a time that I was below a size 16. I would love to add new moms and dads to my support group!

    Hiya! I just had my second baby May 16th! It's crazy stuff but you can totally do it. One of my motivations was to have the energy to spend with them as well :)

    New mom here :) I had my son, McCoy, on 9/5/13. Almost back down to my pre pregnancy weight but that was still overweight. I love mom and dad support groups!

    I am jumping on the bandwagon a bit late (my son is 17 months old) but better late than never. I would like to get the baby weight off before we start trying for #2 in about 6 months. Feel free to friend me.

    I just bought my first plus sized top - & I've decided I'm not buying anymore. I just had my 4 the baby & am ready to lose "the weight". I've put on quite a bit & I kNow it will take some time, but as long as the numbers keep going down - I know I'm staying on task. Good luck:)

    Hi - I have two children, a 3 1/2 year old son and a 10 month old daughter. I was a size 12 before kids and am now a size 18. I hate it. That's why I'm here. :smile:

    Congrats on all the new babies! oh how I love babies. I miss those snuggles.

    My kids are 4 and 6 now. Making time for Me is still hard, but I've finally learned to enjoy my workouts and get them planned in.

    I'd love to join with others.

    A dad here...working on the same goals. It's a lot of work keeping up with a very active 7 year old who always wants to play some kind of sport outside.

    Feel free to add

    Hello,
    I am a new mom to a beautiful 8 week old baby boy. I was sick through most of pregnancy and only gained 15 pounds, and my son was 7lbs. I've lost the pregnancy weight but am trying to lose weight I have had chilling on my stomach and thighs for the last few years :) I was 235 before getting pregnant, 250 the day before he was born and I am now 215. My goal a 160.
    I am pretty new to this app Add me :)
