I'm looking for some support buddies on my weight loss journey!

I just had out LAST baby 7 weeks ago and its time to finally start losing all the cummulative baby pounds I put on in the past six years!

I would love to reach my goal weight before my baby turns one and I have to return to work! So, I have 10 months, I'd love to lose 91 pounds between now and then, landing me at 175 pounds, since I am tall (5'11'') that weight will be just right for me!

Anyone with similar goals? I have three small kids at home, ages 5, 3 and 7 weeks, so I have limited time, I just ordered 10 minute trainer by Tony Horton to do with DH, and hopefully over time I will be able to stack those workouts and make a nice quality session from them!

I'm so tired of failing, I want this time to be THE time, I want success, I want a healthy me, and I need buddies!

Katie

    I'm with you! I have 5 children and have yet to lose the baby weight. Problem is, my youngest is 19! Welcome to MFP! I'm new too so perhaps we can be a good support for each other.

    Good luck on your journey!

    Oh my, I'm horrified. I just did the math and once this baby comes I will have about 75lbs to lose. I'm due June 13th or before... Feel free to add me. I've been on the site for over a year. I lost about 12lbs before I ended up getting pregnant again. But this does work if you are honest. And the support here is amazing! Good luck on your journey, you can do it!

    I am in the opposite situation than you. I do not have any kids but want kids and need to lose weight in order to be healthy enough to have kids. I just started my journey and have 160 pounds to lose. Good Luck with it.

    Plz count me in. I am currently 268 and would love to lose 90 pounds in 10 months. Thats 9 pounds per month and more than doable. My overall goal is to lose 138 ponds for a gial weight of 130.

    Well it looks like I am in great company here! Thank you all for jumping in!

    My 10 Minute Trainer is supposed to arrive by June 10th and then I'll start with that! For now I am watching my foods, drinking more water and trying to get out walking with the baby!

    I get pretty wicked headaches from exercise, a byproduct I am sure of being so out of shape, so I am easing myself into this!

    What are you all doing to get losing?

    We are the same height and have the same goal weight. I started out on 1/3/11 weighing 332.4 lbs. This past weekend, I weighed in at 267.2 lbs so I have 92.2 lbs left to get to goal. My whole mentality has changed this time around, and I am confident that I will make my goal. Good luck to everyone.
