My name is Lauren, and I live in Jefferson City, Missouri. My weight loss journey all started after I ballooned with my pregnancy. I had preeclampsia and no matter what I did I kept gaining weight. I started my pregnancy at 160 and ended it at 232. Currently, I weigh 153.4 and my goal is 125-130. I'm excited to continue this journey. If anyone else wants to talk hit me up. I need fitness buddies. It's also hard being in a relationship with someone who is so against being fitness obsessed. Having an outlet would truly help me.
