Hi , my name is Amy, i live in Cabo Mexico with my husband, 2 month old baby boy and our dog Mechi. I am struggling with being a new mom (I love it but the reality of getting everything achieved is not so easy)and I am trying to lose 15 kg. Logging every day and juicing and exercising!

    Hi! I'm a new mom, 38 yrs old. My sweet baby girl was born July 10 and I love being a mom but I hate the baby weight!!!
    I'm working out and tracking food and could use some extra motivation!!

    First time mom here, too! Congratulations to all the new moms! My baby is 8 months old now and I'm just now starting to get my pregnancy weight off. Just need some support to stay on track here and there

    New mom as well my baby girl will be 4 months on Saturday. Is it true that you need 1800 cal a day while breastfeeding?

    New mama here! Little one is 2 months old already! I'm looking for short but effective workouts to do either at home with minimal equipment or at work in our small fitness center.

    New mom to a sweet baby girl that's now 6 weeks old. Just got the "all-clear" from my doc on exercising, so hoping to get back in shape over the next months... I'm usually a cookie monster around Christmas-time, so could use some accountability :)

    Hey there Mommies! 1st time in a online support group. I'm AmyDawn, AD for short, I just had my first baby girl 6 1/2 months ago and I too am finding it difficult to strip myself of bad eating habits and find motivation to track and exercise. So how can I support you guys and work together to get this weight off and look and feel our best :smiley: Also the Pressure is ON- I made an announcement to FACEBOOK (dumbass) that by Year 1--- I would have lost the weight and would post a picture. Soooooo yeahhh.

    Hello, I am 32 and a recent new mom of a 3 month old girl. I also have a 10 year old girl. I gained about 65 lbs this time around!! I am hoping to loose more than I gained. Hopefully I can give and get some motivation and support. I have been using MyFitnessPal and the Microsoft Band together. So far so good. I really want to wear someof my non prego clothes!!
