    I've been there, for sure! I'm a mom of two, also. You can do it--consistency and patience!

    Same here as well. I fell off the wagon because I dislocated a shoulder and took time off that ended up being to long and just gained weight back. I'm getting back on and need to lose 20-30lbs. feel free to add me if you like. It's exactly what the person above me said, consistency and patience.

    Yep, that's me too. I have an 8 yr old and 5 yr old, never lost all the weight from my second pregnancy. My goal is to lose 25-30 lbs by July! Add me, if you'd like :)

    I'm a mother of 2 as well (ages 6 and 3), I never lost the weight from either and it's just gotten worse as time went on. I've got 70 to lose and it would be great to have other women in similar situations to keep me motivated and in turn I'll help motivate others too! Feel free to add me, I'll take all the support I can get! -Katelyn

    Same here. Just turned 42.... two kids. My weight is like the down jones. Mostly because I've been inconsistent in the last 10 years. Looking for more friends for motivation and support so add me if you like!

    I'm a mum of 3... age 5, 3 and 10 months...and need to lose 30lbs to get back to pre pregnancy weight. I lost loads after my 2nd and started my third pregnancy thinner than I'd been in a long time, but unfortunately gained anyway, despite exercising and eating well, so here I am again!

    I've been exercising since my baby was 6.5 weeks old. I workout 6 days a week usually and walk loads.

    Feel free to add me anyone.

    Well .. you aren't the same person as you were before. And you are older. You can want a fit body but it's going to be on new terms. And that's not so bad!

    I had a better body age 35 after 2 children than I had in my 20s. Yay for strength training :). I'm sure I can get back to it too, it just takes time and hard work.

    Mom of 2 too. Boys, 2 and 4 years old. I've lost my baby weight, but I was already fat from quitting smoking. I'm working on that now. 10 more pounds and I will be merely overweight instead of obese on BMI. To get to a healthy bmi I need to lose 47 more lbs. ugh. I am thinking about a 3rd baby, but I'm 36.
