Hello Everyone!

My name is Krystle and I am a 28 year old mother of a 2.5 month old little boy. This is my first week here at Myfitnesspal and I am thoroughly enjoying all the motivation that I am seeing thus far. I am currently 189.4lbs and would like to reach my goal of 160-165lbs.

My name is Aisha, and I've learned so much over the last 2 years. I'm married, I have a 4 year old and I'm enjoying life. It's not easy in the beginning of losing weight, because you're overwhelmed with so much information. It takes maybe 6 months to a year to find out what works for you, and after that it's all about discipline and consistency. I enjoyed reading some of your post and wish you nothing but the best. You Can and Will do it! Xoxo

Hello! My name is Michelle and I’m 33. I have two beautiful sons, my oldest just turned 2 last month and my youngest is almost 5 months. I gained about 50 pounds with my first pregnancy and had lost all but about 20 by the time he was a year old. We were surprised to find out I was pregnant again a few days before his first birthday. I really wanted to get my weight down so I wouldn’t be uncomfortable before getting pregnant again but sometimes life has other plans. ;-) I planned on staying in shape through my whole 2nd pregnancy but about 18 weeks in, I fell down the stairs and broke my foot and sprained my ankle horribly. I was in a cast and on bed rest for 6 weeks which really put a damper on my workouts.
Luckily I watched what I ate and when my foot was better stayed semi-active…mostly chasing around a 1 year old. I only gained 13 pounds with my 2nd. I’ve lost all that weight but I still have 20+ lbs I would like to lose. I find it hard to find time to work out with 2 little ones and working full time. I joined the gym here at work and am trying to steal away time most days to go even if it’s for 30 minutes. I just started MFP again but have been a member for years.

Hi Everyone!

I just turned 28 and I have a 20 month old son (Sam). You would think with all the Toddler chasing, the pounds would melt right off, but... :-) I really want to fix all my unhealthy eating habits and sedentary lifestyle. I used to be an athlete that loved working out and playing sports, but now I find myself content ordering Chinese food after a long day of Toddler wrangling.

I'm really excited to know there are parents everywhere that are trying to live better for themselves and their families, it's really inspiring. Good luck everyone, and I look forward to hearing everyone's stories!

Hi, I'm Surabhi. My husband & I are lawyers and have been married for 3 yrs and had our precious little daughter in November 2013. I have been on mfp since December 2013 but I have regular only for the last couple of weeks. I was always a thin girl weighing around 110lbs at 5'4" but I gained 5lbs on bcp. I conceived my daughter 2 months after I got off the pill and therefore started my pregnancy at around 115lbs. I gained a total of 40lbs! That too when I was doing prenatal yoga and walking over a mile each day! She was a tiny baby though, weighed 5.5lbs. I have been ebfing ever since and I've lost around 22lbs but I still have 17lbs to go!

2 weeks back I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's (goodbye thyroid) and I've been put on thyronorm (same thing as synthroid). Still bfing and planning on starting to wean her next month.

I'm a vegetarian, (mostly) a healthy eater but the weight is stuck! I would love love love to be back in shape by our birthday (my daughter and I have our birthdays in the same week) because we plan on taking her to the beach! Won't mind being in shape before that either!

I've heard people lose weight on bfing, didn't happen for me. I'm justly swollen and puffy. Let's see what weaning does!

How old are your kids? 2 years and 10 months both boys

I am 24 and married for almost 4 years (on august 13th) I am a SAHM and starting a photography business for evenings and weekends.

Hi Everyone, I'm Ashley and I am a proud momma of a 6 month old son!
I have been an MFP'er since 2011 when I joined to lose weight for my wedding. I ended up losing 22 pounds and feeling great about myself. Now, I'm back to lose that same 22 pounds that I packed on with baby!

Hi! I'm a mom to 3 beautiful girls(4, 2, and 8 months) and am looking to build a support system for myself as I undertake losing all of this baby weight! I started with wanting to losing 75 pounds and have lost 7 so far. Its a tough journey and would love the extra mommy support. I'm also new to MFP so still learning the ropes. Thank you!
