    Hi! I'm married with two boys (3&5). I have lost about 7 lbs. I have started and stopped MFP so many times. I'm finally in the right mindset to become fit. My heaviest was 200 lb when I gave birth to my youngest. I'm 5'9, 178 lbs currently and hope to drop to 150. I would like to start lifting weights, but I'm so intimidated. I would love to have some MFP friends, so add me!

    I've got 3 kids - a boy who's 5.5, a girl who's 3.5 and a baby girl who's 8 months.
    Ive been married since August 2008 (08/08/08 actually :smile: ) and we've been together since 2003.
    I lost 66lbs after my 2nd baby and started my third pregnancy the thinnest I'd been since my early 20s. I'm 37 now.
    I didn't dare step on the scale until 4 months post partum so I have no way of knowing exactly how much I've lost, and I haven't weighed myself since Nov, but I was losing around 1lb a week, so I must've lost just over 20lbs since Sept.
    I'd like to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight, so possibly another 30lbs to go.

    Hello all.
    I have three kids, 2, 5 and 7.
    I'm married.
    I've lost 12lbs since the birth of my 3rd. I'm a size 12 but want to be a 8-10 ideally (pre-pre-pre baby size!) 8 might be a bit optimistic but you never know unless you try! lol.


    Not at all! It's totally possible. I'm English, but in US sizes I went from a 16 to a 6/8 after my 2nd baby. I'm a 10 now and looking to get back to a 6.

    HI, great positive thread :)
    I'm married with an 8 month old son who lights up my days and nights !
    I gained 60 lb with my pregnancy and so far have lost it all + 4 lb more. I am BF so that helps out a lot. I'd like to lose another 10 lb though I think my body is happy where it is now.
    I am 5'11 an 166 now, maybe if I can get to 160, my trouble is adding in the exercise, it's hard to find the time / motivation ( if I'm being totally honest ).
    Keep up the awesome wk mommies (and daddies)

    Hello mommies!

    How many kiddos? I have a boy who is almost 17 months.

    Married? We are engaged

    How much weight have you lost?
    Sadly just started back on this. We could not breast feed past 4 months. I gained 50 lbs high risk on insulin. Managed to loose 35 lbs while breast feeding but NOTHING since!

    How much do you want to loose?
    About 50 ish.
