    Hi there! I also had a baby 6 1/2 months ago. She's baby #3 and was a BIG surprise to us seeing that older brother and sister are 14 & 12! I lost 50 lbs over 4 years ago and all of it is back now. We have a quinceanera, sweet 15, for our oldest daughter in a year and my goal is to lose at least 75 lbs in that time. I'm also still nursing and that's my biggest concern in this. How do you lose the weight and not lose your supply?

    Hi! I have a 6 week old and I am also exclusively breastfeeding. I would also like to drop down to my pre-pregnancy weight. I had dropped about 35 pounds about a year before I became pregnant, I gained 10 back just before. I currently have about 10 more pounds to loose to get to my first goal, then another 10 to get to where I would like to maintain. I would be willing to help you stay accountable if you would like.

    My babe is 6 months too and am breastfeeding! Would love to have friends on this app for accountability! Add me if you're in the same boat!

    I would love some accountability buddies- I have 7 week old & 3.5 year old daughters. I haven't been released yet by my OB to start exercising but I should be soon- I have at least 35 lbs to lose (ideally closer to 60) from pre baby and baby weight. I'm also breastfeeding and wasn't able to lose any when BF my first daughter!
