Last year I had my first child and have been trying to get the weight off ever since. My goal is to lose 50 lbs and I'm looking for some help/motivation. Going to really give this a try again!

    Thanks for all of the friend invites and responses! It's definitely great motivation to get back into shape! I really wanted to take a nap today while my son was napping but I hopped onto the treadmill instead ;)

    I had my son 10 moths ago and have 40 pounds to lose! Of course, smaller goals would be nice to reach too. I gave MFP a try 2 months ago, and lost 8 lbs in 2 weeks, so I know it's possible. But I lost my motivation and fell off the wagon. I need to get back on!! How do I add people?

    Me too, at least! Plus some, adding you ladies.

    We got this everyone! Is anyone doing any workout programs that have been helping? So far I've been using my treadmill and Jillian Michaels DVDs
