Hi! Glad I found this group :-)

I'm so glad this group is here. I really need to be held accountable, as I have at least 50 pounds to lose. I have two boys, a 4 year old and an 11 month old. I gained 50 pounds with my pregnancy, and even though I'm nursing the weight never came off. I've been trying to walk for about 45 minutes 4x a week, as long as it's not pouring rain. I've lost 12 pounds so far, but it came off quickly, so it was probably just water weight. I have a long road ahead of me, and I'm looking forward to making some friends on here to support each other.

    Hey Danni,
    My kidneys are failing, I can gain or loose 12 lbs of water at any given day. It still counts!!!

    Congrats to you!!

    Weight is a deceiving measure. It's good in the long run, but some days it rains and some days it snows. Have a fall back, feel good check. I am taking my measurements and tracking that. As I gain muscle, my toned shape will be a better guide to progress.
