Hi everyone, I started using mfp just over 3 weeks ago but this is my 1st post. I am 27 years old and mum to 3 children (9,5 & 15 months) I have been overweight since I had my 1st daughter. my starting weight was 117 kg (i'm an aussie so I think its roughly 257 pounds?) I have managed to loose 3 kg (6.6 pounds) so far which I am happy about but still a long road ahead till I reach my goal of 65kg all in all I have 59 kgs to loose (129.8 pounds) :embarassed:

    Great to have you on board! I'm Shay! I have a 5 month old and trying to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight and look even better than ever!!! Join me & my friend/co-worker Jen on the change-your-life-forever weight loss journey! I am a fan of eating what you like but in very small portions and eating more often (@ least 5-6 times daily). We are doing zumba (latin dance classes), taking stairs @ work every time you have to, body pump classess and elliptical training with circuit training at gym. We are just getting in to the groove...let us know if we can help!
  • Hi Im new im a 22year old female from Scotland who has rapidly gained 4.5 stone in 2 years. Desperate to loose it so hopefully this will help

    well thanks for the kind replies already nice to meet you all. The biggest change to my life so far is giving up booze and softdrinks, een diet softdrinks. i started drinking at 15, not a heavy drinker though just a couple everynight but I made the choice to give it up for good.
    I walk around 1.5 hours everyday, I am starting kickboxing next month (when I get a good sports bra) lol and also I have joined up to the 12 week body transformation so looking forward to that as well
    Can I ask how long you have all been on your weight loss journeys? A loss of 69 pounds is awesome!! I feel like I have so far to go

    Hey, I'm new also. I think it would be good for me to add friends with similar weight loss goals. My overall goal is to lose 90lbs, but my focus right now is 22lbs. I also gained a lot of weight from having babies. I'll send you a request to be friends, if you decline I still wish you the best of luck with your weight loss.
