Mom on a mission

Yesterday I just started working out, counting cals & new to fitnesspal. After having my daughter about 2 yrs ago I basically had no motivation & was too busy taking care of her & not taking care of me. After a much needed girls night out this past wknd I voiced my body fustration & low motivation. My awesome friend encouraged me to step up & take care of myself. So I'm on a mission to lose 20 lbs & most importantly get fit & feel good about myself.

    Me too! I had a baby nearly 6 months ago and have not yet shed any weight. I joined today and am hoping to get motivated and focussed and to get the weight down again.

    Hi There. Im in the same boat. Had my second son 2 and half years ago and cannot for the life of me shift that last stone. Have been doing MFP for 2 weeks and am determined to stay on track. Good luck with your weight loss.

    Good for you! I'm glad your friend got you headed in the right direction. She could have just fell into the response of a lot of people and turned it into a negative and than got you down. Hat's off to your friend for being a true friend and cudo's to you for stepping up and making a difference! You can do it!!!
