Hi! I just had my son 3/2/16 and I am getting back into this app! I'm looking for new friends to help keep me motivated and stay engaged! And to share recipes, exercises, etc! Feel free to add me! I love this app and will be posting ALOT of different things! <3:)

    Congratulations on the new little wee one!

    I would make sure before starting a plan that your doctor has cleared you. Most say wait 6 weeks after birth.

    The biggest advice I give everyone is to weigh and measure everything you eat! It seriously makes a difference. Get those veggies in, especially green stuff, so you stay more satisfied.

    Good luck to you!

    Congrats on the new arrival! You are eager ! I didn't know which way was up this soon after my little one.
    My little man was 1 last week. I lost all my baby weight and was in fairly good shape going back to work before Xmas but since I've gone back exercise and being healthy have slipped down priority list. Have totally lost motivation no will power especially in work canteen and as i work full time i spend evenings with my little man until he goes to bed then it's get organised for next day and sleep as long as possible before wake up call! After a shopping trip today I've had a real wake up call. I've been saying il get my act together for ages now but this time I mean it. I'm just not happy with my shape right now and I've no fitness. Enough excuses !My boss was obsessed with this app! So hopefully it will help! Tomorrow is day 1!

    Congratulations! I adopted a baby boy born 2/28! I don't have pregnancy weight to lose, but I am trying to balance my fitness and weight loss journey with the demands of caring for a baby. We can motivate each other. Add me.

    You can add me. My little one is 10 months old now. Always looking for mfp friends. Safety in numbers and all that :-)
