My name is Michelle and I am new to the site. I would love some diet buddies to help me through this process. I am 35 years old, married and have 3 wonderful boys, age 10, 8 and 7 months, I didn't have a weight problem until after my 2nd child when I found out I had thyroid disease. Since then I have been struggling with my weight and especially now since I just had another child 7 months ago.I was introduced to this site by my doctor and I am hoping this will help. :smile:

    hi - we are in a very similar sitaution! Having babies and then small people it hard on the waist line and on any plans to reign it in! I have just decided to get this under control - did it after my first and can do it again, but am really hoping for some buddy contact to keep me motivated, on track and excited. I would love to partner up with you!

    I am new here too, and my story sounds the same as most of you. I would love some friends to help along the way, so feel free to add me too. I am 37 with 4 boys (two of my own/two step sons). I had my first son at 21 and last one at 35. It hasn't been as easy this time losing the weight! I have 20 pounds left and they seem like the hardest. Best of luck to everyone and hope to hear more from you!
