Hello everyone! I hope every is having a wonderful time with your new bundles of love :smile:

I was wondering what everyone's goals are, so we can help cheer each other on. Are you trying to get to a certain weight? Want to fit into a certain piece of clothing? Burn all of your maternity clothes like me)? :tongue:

I gained about 50 pounds during the course of two back-to-back pregnancies, so I have a long way to go. I have a long-term goal in several parts:

1.) Lose the weight from Pregnancy #2 - about 20 lbs (only 2 lbs away from that right now!)
2.) Lose the weight from Pregnancy #1 - about 20 more lbs.
3.) Get rid of all maternity clothes!
4.) Lose the 10 lbs I gained during the "honeymoon phase"

Then I should be back to the shape I was in when I married my husband :flowerforyou:

    I gave birth to a baby girl on Sept 28th, so 5 weeks ago.
    My goals are to lose 15-17 pounds, exercise 5 times a week and reduce my sugar intake. I would like to lose about 3 pounds per month. Steady is safe, right?

    I started exercising today and I keep a nutrition journal on the website. It helps me to keep my focus on and be less tempted to mess things up :-) Will see how things go.

    Burning my maternity clothes would be awesome!!! I'm so tired of only being able to fit in them even though my LO is 9 months old. It's time to get my butt in gear!!!
