    I am 4 weeks postpartum and it's been a struggle to not exercise as much as I want to and to eat as healthy as I should. I find myself eating like I did when I was pregnant... Which is why I gained 50 lbs. I want my daughter to have a healthy outlook on life, and not struggle as I have in the past. Wish you all the best in your weight loss efforts and congrats on your new babies!

    Hi! I'm almost 9 weeks pp/c-section with my first and although I've lost my pregnancy weight, I was chubby before and on/off MFP. I want to lose another 30lbs or so and am also hoping my belly will become a little less pouch like! Feel free to add me for some support :)
