in Introduce Yourself
Hello all! This isn't my first time using MFP, but I've been on a little hiatus. I just had my first little one almost 4 weeks ago and I'm looking to lose this baby weight and keep the momentum going! Any other new moms out there? It'd be great to have someone to relate to and keep each other motivated. :)

    Congrats on the new baby! MIne are a bit older (15 and 11.5), but I remember the sweet snuggles and exhausted nights. Welcome to MFP!

    Congratulations on the little one. We just welcome our 3rd and final baby into the world 3 weeks ago today. On my own mission to lose the weight, I've got a LONG way to go. Definitely could use friends that I can relate to, to help keep me going and who will understand when I need to vent or maybe even whine. Welcome back to MFP. :)

    Hi! My name is Dawn. I have a 15 year old, a 9 year old, and adopted a baby who is now 4 weeks old. I don't have the baby weight to lose this time, but I can relate to the challenges of finding time to get/stay fit and healthy while caring for a baby. Add me. We can encourage each other.

    Hi, my baby is 8 weeks. I've git about 10lb to lose. Need some motivation and support. Feel free to add me.
    I'm starting today and am planning on weighing in every Friday.
    Exercise not really in the plan at the moment - too tired! So I'm hoping to lose it slowly but steadily.
    Please feel free to add me as a friend.

    Breast feeding really helps burn up the calories. I did it for almost 3 yrs, now that im not, the weight is creeping back on. Congratulations!!

    I'm due in July with my 3rd child. I've successfully lost weight with help from MFP accountability after my kids before so I'm hoping I can stay motivated this time too. Add me! I'm just personally logging to make sure I'm eating enough right now but I'm also supportive!

    Congrats on your new babe. I'm a mom of two and trying to get it together now that my youngest is 7 months old. I was a big gainer for both of my pregnancies and after my second son I had a solid 90 lbs to lose.

    Good luck with your goals!
