Hey everyone! I am 26 and recently cleared by my doctor to start exercising again after giving birth to my first child on 6/1/14.

Prior to the pregnancy I lost about 40lbs and was down to 150. My father passed away when I was 11 weeks pregnant and I lost another 10lbs and then gained very quickly, up to 203 at delivery. I am down to 188, but would love to get down to 140 so I can be healthy and active for my daughter!

I would love to have some supportive friends to help with that journey, especially those who have been through the struggle of weight loss after pregnancy -- this includes guys, too, because I know my husband gained the weight right along with me!

Thanks!!

    Yeah, that pregnancy weight is a booger! I had back to back pregnancy that really packed some weight on :-/. I had twins and when they were 10 months old got pregnancy again. I lost most of it, injured myself, regained most of it...and now I am back to losing it again! Darn roller coaster....
