    Hello!!! I just started mfp yesterday and have already lost one pound! I have a 15 month old as well born 5/22/10. I'm already really excited about mfp and how it allows you to really keep track of what your intake is. I"m sending you a friend request. The more friends the more encouragement!! Good Luck!

    You can do it! I gained 85 after/during my two pregnancies. Being pregnant was hard on my body. So far I have lost 66 pounds in about a year. My youngest is nearly 15 months old now. It takes time for the weight to come off. Just remember that patience and persistance is key and slow and steady will keep the weight off. When it gets hard...don't give up, just push through it. Nothing gets accomplished when you give up. :)

    It's nice to meet you and feel free to add me :)

    Hi,
    I have a 5 year old and an almost 2 year old. Back in January when DD2 was 18 months old, I wondered "At what point does 'baby weight' just turn into 'weight'?" and started exercising and eating better the next day.
    I've lost 29 lbs so far. I did the Couch to 5K while pushing DD2 in a jogging stroller. She loves being in the stroller when I run, and cries on my solo days (Sundays) when I head out without her. And, yes, I've taken her with me on some of my solo days bc she got upset when I tried to sneak out of the house.
    On my cross-training days I do workout DVDs- Jillian Michaels is great.
