Ok, so I obviously still have a LONG way to go, but I am three months into this journey and, as of my weigh in yesterday, I have lost 28.4 pounds. My 2 year old weighs 28.2 pounds...I've lost my baby! This makes it seem like so much more 'cause she can get quite heavy at times. It's the small things that I have to focus on to keep me motivated and this is one of those things! Now to lose my 42 pound 5 year old!

    My two year old is 25 pounds and lugging him around always reminds me of just how far I've come! Great job!!!

    That's great! It really puts it into perspective for you when you pick up your 2 year old now doesn't it? Just the thought of carrying them around all day, no thanks! haha. My 4 year old weighs 46lbs and I've lost 2 of him! When I pick him up now I'm like holyeeee crap your heavy :smiley:

    I was just thinking along similar lines today! My 5 year old weighs 50 pounds.... I'm getting there! I was tempted to bring along 40 pounds of weight on my next walk so I can once again feel what I used to be lugging around! Great job!!

    WOOHOOOOOOO! Keep up the great work!! And no worries on the title.. dont know why anyone would realistically post the loss of a child under the success stories... You're doing fantastically!!! Keep up the great work!!

    Thanks ya'll. I figured the title under Success Stories would be pretty obvious. Didn't mean to offend anyone.

    FWIW: I really was kidnapped as a child and I totally loved your title! I got that you were making an equivalency. Good job!! :)

    LOL... I was just thinking today too that I've lost my 14 lb baby. :) I only have one kid though, so I was trying to think of what else to lose, seeing as the dog is 140 lb and I don't need to lose that much. After googling, I guess my next goal is my KitchenAid mixer @ 20 lbs. :)
