    Hi i have a 2 year old and work full time - trying to find something that fits into the routine is the difficult part. I really feel low and am on a diet and trying to work out. I could do with some support - also looking to loose about 60kg.

    good luck on your journey - hopefully we can spur each other on.

    I'm a stay at home mom to two wonderful little boys (2 yrs and 3 months). I started working on my weight after my oldest was born and was able to lose the 60lbs I had gained plus an additional 30lbs putting me at 170lbs. I got pregnant again and gained about 40lbs or so this time. I'm currently about 12lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight and once I get there I still have another 40lbs or so to lose. I had mirena put in so hopefully I won't have any more unexpected pregnancies. I spent the first 6 weeks after each pregnancy pretty much not able to do anything since I had to have a c-section both times. I finally was able to get correctly fitting sports bras earlier this month. Last year I had been doubling up cheap bras from walmart that didn't fit and they were falling apart by the end of my pregnancy in May. I was lucky and able to find a few in my size while amazon was having a sale. I'm going to try and go on runs after my husband gets home from work and I think I might start up either The Butt Bible or Rockin Body or both.

    I have a 10 year old, a 7 year old, and a 1 year old. It took me 10 months to lose all the baby weight I gained with my last child. It then took me another 6 weeks to lose the additional 10lbs I gained before getting pregnant. Now I am working on losing 30lbs to get where I want to be.

    My kids keep me busy but I am committed. I will never go back to being fat again.

    My little guy is three months old today. I've lost almost 40 lbs since I had him. I was 145 lbs when I got pregnant and 193 at my heaviest. I'm hoping to get down to 140. I've been walking and doing Jillian Michaels DVDs, plus I'm breastfeeding. Feel free to add me!

    My little guy just turned 2 in July, and I still have about 12 lbs or so to lose in order to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight. I would like to lose an additional 20 lbs after that! Feel free to add me, as well.

    I have a 2 year old and an 8 months old. I put on 5 stone (70lbs) with my first pregnancy and didn't lose any, I then put on another stone (14lbs) with my second, I wanted to lose a couple of stone before I fell pregnant too!

    I just had a baby in April. I am about 10 lbs from pre pregnancy weight. I also put on weight when I met my husband so I would really like to lose another 40 lbs. I swear its so much harder after having a baby.

    I have a 4.5 year old and an 18 month old. I have finally lost the baby weight but still would like to lose another 15 pounds. It is really tough to find the time for yourself but it can be done. Add me if you'd like

    My daughter is 3 months old. she is amazing an absolute blessing, but omg i wish this weight gain would have never had happened! i was heavy before i got pregnant but working towards the weight loss. i had finally gotten down to 160 which was huge to me. i had thyroid cancer so weight loss is a huge struggle. any who, i want to lose the weight now that im at 193 which is huge! for me. but nursing as been a struggle to diet with. any mamas have any tips or ideas. i am working out everyday and changing my diet


    thank you :)
    Lauren
