And really ready to get my body back! I want to be in shape for my baby boy! I was overweight pre-pregnancy, and was never happy with how I looked and felt while pregnant, so now its time to get my figure back!

    Welcome, and CONGRATULATIONS!! (he's gorgeous!! ) :D I'm in the same boat you are - I was overweight before my boys, and now I'm ready to pull it off for good (I have 3 boys, ages 4, 2, and 9 months) :)

    Congratulations!! :) Your little boy is adorable! I became an aunt 6 weeks ago to my nephew.

    I'm trying to lose weight before my husband and I give it a go to start trying to conceive.

    I would love to be a part of your support system! :)

    He is gorgeous!

    Welcome - I am the same too - I have always been over weight and after having my last child have decided to do something seriously about it! My eldest girl is 9 in a week, my boy is 7 and our little girl is 16 months.

    Feel free to add me as a friend so that we can support each other.

    Good Luck :-)

    Looks like there is a lot of us mommys needing to shed the baby weight! My oldest is son is 12, and my 2nd son is almost a year old now. With the encouragement of some real good friends, I just joined as well! Now lets get this weight off fellow mommys!
