Moms Needing to Lose 50+?

I'm going to start a new group for women like me. I'm thinking it would be helpful for us moms to connect with healthy ideas for our whole family. I'm 30 and have 1 daughter who will be 2 at the end of the month. I need to lose at least 50 lbs. Comment here to be added to the group!

    I have 50+ to lose but may get pregnant again before hitting goal. I'm 2 years PP and may not want to wait another year.

    We could be twins! I have an 8 month old, and am also looking to lose 100 pounds. I'm currently 243, which (sadly) is not the biggest I've ever been, but still bigger than I want to be. We can do it!

    I'm aiming for 60 but would be THRILLED to lose 50! I am 30 with a threenager (boy) and 9 month old (girl). I was halfway to my goal before when I got pregnant with baby girl, so I know HOW to lose weight, it's just a matter of motivation and effort.

    I want to lose at least 65. I was doing well with exercise and diet until I was pregnant with out third and then gained it all back in pregnancy and her first year. Now that I'm getting more sleep I'm motivated to get back on track.

    I've got 70lbs to lose. Have an 8 year old son and a new baby daughter is 15 weeks. I lost 20lbs right before I got pregnant with baby girl. Exclusively nursing and wanting to balance losing weight with my milk supply. *sigh*

    Girl I was in the same spot earlier this year. Nursing made me gain weight, not lose... I was too tired to exercise and had absolutely no time to cook since I work full time too. And if I cut down on calories my supply would tank, which meant more stress! First time I ran after we weaned, i was amazed at how easy it was when I'd been dragging for so many months!

    If anyone is interested in new friends, please friend request me. I am new to this site and relearning how to eat correctly for nutrition. I'm 36 with a 2 year old that still nurses, so I have to balance all that out.

    My first goal is to lose 50 lbs which would put me back at around the weight I was when I got married almost 12 years ago.

    Thanks!

    30 something, wife, littles at home, work full time outside the home, part time student, and have 80+ to loose. I love the support of the NEM group on FB and am looking to add more MFP mom friends here. When I jump from fb to mfp it feels so lonely here! This is the first time I have started tapping into the groups... I am far more more motivated when I see a lot of activity in my feed so please add me if you are an active MFP mommy!
