Getting Back To Me!

Hi there! I'm new around here and definitely loving the site. I had a baby in 2009 and gained 50lbs during my pregnancy. After delivery, I quickly lost all but 8 or 9 lbs. Somehow, someway the weight snuck back on and before I knew it, it was the middle of 2010 and I weighted 190lbs! How did that happen?:huh: Everyone said 'oh you have an excuse because you just had a baby', but people would stop me at work and ask if (or assume) I was still pregnant. (People can be rude sometimes). So my SHERO, my sister, found this app on her phone and started losing weight. She's lost over 35lbs. So I bought the same phone and got the app for myself. Now I lost 15lbs before I got the app, so I'm down 19lbs YTD! I'm starting to feel like the old me again.:bigsmile: I have found that bringing my Lean Cuisine for lunch is a big help. It's low in calories and tastes great and I try to eat everything in moderation. I reward myself sometimes, but that's only when I have calories to spare. Anyway, thanks for listening!

  • Hi i had a baby in 2008 and I also now weigh 190 pounds and I also joined in January 2011! I dont know how I got up to 190. It is good to see someone where I am now that is also trying to do better.
