I had a baby 11 months ago and I am ready to work on me again. I gained all my weight after having a baby (which is crazy to me) so I'm hoping by joining this website I can find inspiration and support to push myself to be better.

    This website is great. It is fun & easy to use. I joined 5/13/11. I've only lost 5#s so far. But I feel better just being more active. I see the calories I've eaten and say I better do some cardio exercises to burn them off. If anybody needs a pal, please feel free to add me as a friend. Good luck reaching your weight loss goal. Have a great day.

    It's not crazy at all that you gained weight after your baby was born. Sleep deprivation is a huge factor in weight gain, and new moms NEVER get enough sleep. I have a 6 year old and 4 year old and still suffer from the occasional sleepless night. Plus it's a lot harder to focus on what you're eating and finding time to exercise when you have a new baby. I just joined MFP too, in the hopes of finally losing the last little bit of baby weight. So far I love it and have already lost 3 pounds in 10 days. Good luck, I know you can do it!

    I started with this site after I had baby #3 and lost 90 lbs. I'm getting ready to have baby #4 in 3 weeks and I know I'll be back to my pre-pregnancy weight soon after. You can do this!!!
