Trying MFP for the 2nd time, but this time hopefully with some friends who have similar goals. I am a married mother of 4 boys, and trying to lose 100+lbs. Looking for all the friends and motivation I can get and hoping to be a light for others taking this journey as well. please feel free to add me =)

    You can definitely do this!! I lost 121lbs after I had my son 4 years ago and now I am pregnant with #2 and plan to lose whatever I gain after he is born :)

    Hi There!!
    I'm in a similar boat as those who have posted. I'm a mom of a 2 year old, who is TTC. I'm looking to lose roughly 100 lbs. I'd like to say I'll wait and get it off after I have another baby... but I know it's better to start now!!

    I'll friend you!! I can use your support too!! Good luck!! I'm sure you'll do great! :)

    Hi, I am Ang mom of 2 boys I need to lose like 40 kg (Not sure how to convert lol), I have been on MFP for years but severely slacking. I started a LCHF lifestyle, and also going to gym. I would love motivation and vice versa :-)
