I'm Kelly, 26, from Canada and just had a baby girl in September!! Any other new mamas out there that want to join me in staying accountable? I'm 10lbs from my goal weight and want to really hone in on my nutrition this month!! ☺️

    Hi Rachelle!! Congrats on your little man!! Motivation can be tough to muster up sometimes, when we're crazy sleep deprived and barely have time to shower, let alone exercise and try to eat healthy right? Oh the joys of motherhood!! We'll get there though! Just gotta start out slow and take things day by day, baby steps so to speak!! What form of exercise do you and/or have you enjoyed doing in the past?

    Hi Michelle! Congrats on your baby boy! You and Rachelle both have November men, cute! 30lbs by December is totally doable. And how exciting about your wedding. I'm sure you'll look stunning in your dress. Have you picked one out yet? Or are you doing that in the next few months? Such an exciting time!! :)

    Hi Nura!! Congrats on your baby girl!! Yay for September daughters :) And I totally hear you, the breastfeeding hunger is no joke!! I've been doing my best to really hone in on my nutrition since Feb 1st since I started a new exercise program, but it's HARD! I still crave sweets sometimes. Sounds like you have a great goal though! Baby steps and you'll get there. What kind of activity/exercise do you enjoy doing?

    I am 31 and just gave birth to our second daughter on November 27th. This will be my third time using MFP to lose weight. Originally lost 30 lbs in 2011 and kept it off until pregnancy with my first baby in 2013. Used it to lose the baby weight plus 10lbs more (total of 25lbs.) Kept it off until pregnancy with second baby. Been using it again for almost two months to get rid of this baby weight, 10lbs down, 15 to go. Hoping to reach my goal weight by our seventh wedding anniversary, April 19th.

    MFP definitely works it's just a lot of work :)

    I've had a slow loss week last week and this week. Currently bummed and needing motivation.

    We have 2 older kids, 7 and 11. We were young when we had the first 2, so we wanted to be done by the time my husband turned 30. Baby was born 3 days before dad's 30th birthday.
