Looking for some friends that are in similar situations. Just had my first child on March 7th and trying to loose some weight. I didn't gain weight during my pregnancy but that's the joy of being overweight when I got pregnant lol. So trying to get down about 40 pounds with dieting, exercising and breastfeeding.

    I had my 3rd child on 2/13/17. I didn't gain much weight, but I was overweight when I got pregnant. I lost a lot of weight during pregnancy due to nausea. I need to lose at least 60 pounds.

    Well...I don't really classify as postpartum anymore since my baby is 16 months, lol. But I'd still love to be friends with anyone who knows how hard it is to balance healthy living with raising babies. I have 3 kids. The baby is nearly a toddler now but I'm still breastfeeding so I know the struggle. Haha. I'm always starving.

    I'm almost in the exact same situation! Baby was born Feb 20 and I want to lose 40 pounds. I didn't gain much during pregnancy either so somehow I thought the extra weight I had would just fall off when then baby came.

    I'm a new mom, but been on a weight lost roller coaster my whole adult life, topped 215 when I gave birth in March. Been off​ mfp for a year, now im down to 188 & my goal is 150lbs. Since I'm breast feeding I read I should not go below 1800 calories, has any one else heard that? Looking for friends pls feel free to add me :)
