    Not a new mom but a mom of 2. My kids are 7 years apart, so i lost the weight from my first and then got pregnant again. Still have about 25lbs i'd like to get rid of. Keep going ladies, you can accomplish your goals!
    Feel free to add me, would love other moms to communicate with and ideas to keep me on track too! Life is busy and so a great support group is wonderful to have.

    I'm not a new mom per say, my daughter just turned 2.. but I'm a mom none the less! I started at 155lb (in Dec) and am down to 130lb, which is 9lb less than I was when I got pregnant! So I am pretty happy with how things have been going! I have 2lb left til my goal weight, it feels like I'm never going to get there! You can add me if you'd like :)

    I'm 4.5 months postpartum and would love some new mom friends and accountability as well. I agree it's tough balancing breastfeeding and wanting to keep up supply and energy but also lose weight. I'm back at pre-pregnancy weight, only gained about 25 pounds and had been on a health kick prior to getting pregnant where I lost 20 pounds, but still have about 40 pounds to go to my goal weight. Currently doing a whole 30.

    Hey there! My little one is 13 weeks! I am about 12 lbs from my pre pregnancy weight. I feel like I am at a plateau-breastfeeding has my appetite all over the place! I just need to start logging again!

    Not that you asked, but when I was breastfeeding, I set my goal to maintain my current weight and didn't log any breastfeeding "exercise". I lost weight very easily. Perks of breastfeeding!

    Hi everyone. Im a mom of 3- 12,6, and 2. Looking to have my 4th soon but really need to lose some weight first as being obese and pregnant is rough! I have at least 100lbs to lose. Im 30, and a stay at home mom, would like some friends!

    Hi everyone, I'm 6 months post-partum, dieting for 5 of them. I lost the 15 lbs I gained from pregnancy and now I'm trying to lose the additional 15 lbs I was working on when I got pregnant! I'm still about 10 lbs from my goal.

    As hesn92 said above, I'm basically eating non-breastfeeding maintenance calories and letting the breastfeeding calorie deficit drive the weight loss. Now that my baby boy is starting solids and I'm not pumping so much, I'll need to cut calories more and it'd be great to have other mom mfp friends as I go!
