    you can add me, i have a 7 year old and a 6 month old. i weigh 20 lbs less than i did before i had my son, and 6 lbs more than when i found out about my daughter this time last year. I tend to have medical set backs when i start working out again (like getting pregnant lol) i also go more extreme than i should and hurt myself...this time i am going more slowly with the cardio, i'll work back to what i was doing before. I can lift weights just fine. I have around another 50 lbs to lose, i have lost 30 from my highest weight recorded, but ive lost only 24 since i've started here.

    You can add me if you like. I didn't gain much with each of my older children (now 9, 8 and 6), but I didn't lose, either; I just kept adding on more weight. I lost about 30 pounds several years ago, but that was quickly regained. I also have 13 month old twins, with whom I gained a whopping 11 pounds. (They actually made me lose body fat, since they were pulling needed nutrition from me) When I had them, I quickly lost 35 pounds. I've gained back about 15 of those, and have decided enough is enough.
    SW - 287
    CW - 274.5
    GW - 180-190 (Maybe lower, I'll see when I get there)

    Hi there. I don't have young kids any longer, but I too started out where you are; close to 300 pounds. I log in here daily (271 days!) and interact with MFP friends. I'm down 64 pounds so far since March. Feel free to add me. :)

    My boys are 3 and 6. My starting weigh in July of 2013 was 375 pounds I am currently down 171.5 pounds. I am working on losing another 4 pounds before the New Year. To put me at 199. I am very strict with logging what I eat (which is a low car way of life which I have embraced and will always probably continue with) then I also log all daily activity. But I never eat back those calories.

    I'm not a mom yet but part of my motivation to lose weight is to someday become one! And I'd love more female friends with similar goals! Anyone feel free to add me :)

    If your still looking for friends, you can add me! I am a Mom of 3; 3,5,&7. I didn't gain much weight with each pregnancy...I was fat to begin with. ☺ I started at 257, but in the past 4 months I have lost 52lbs! I want to loose another 50 or so. People ask how I have been doing it, it has been a combination of MyFitnessPal and actually exercising! Feel free to add me..

    Feel free to add me! I'm not a mom (well, I'm a dog mom, so there's that) but I DO have a considerable amount of weight that I'd like to lose (roughly 90 or so lbs). So feel free to add me... :)

    Ladies, I'd love more accountability friends as well! I am currently at 185 (ugh), started at 220 after the birth of my second son, got down to 156 (eek) using MFP, logging and exercise and then got lazy. I even ran m first ever half marathon! I now feel that I had to fail in order to realize that this journey will be continuous, for the rest of my days. So I'm heading back down the path toward weight loss. My goal is about 160. I'm only 5'2" but I certainly don't feel compelled to get down to my 'BMI goal'.

    I work FT, have 2 little ones, house, a dog, 2 cats and partridge in a pear tree! We want a third child but I want to get to a comfortable and healthy weight before we try.

    Please feel free to add me here and on Instagram at Foreternity1981

    Cheers!
