Hi everyone. I am so excited to be here. My husbands cousin and I are going to use this website to drop some pounds. After having my third son 7 months ago at the age of 32, I would still like to drop another 15 pounds before we try on having another baby. If anyone has any advice on losing the weight and keeping motivated, please throw some input our way.

    Thank You-I know I am having a hard time keeping my fat grams down and my calories up to what I need. It will come to me. I just need to go to the market to get some new foods.

    Welcome and good luck to you. I lived in Newton, Iowa for five years but that was nearly 30 years ago. :smile: This is a great site for support. I just joined earlier this month and I love it. Lost 3 pounds already.
