As I Said.
I'm a 22 year old mommy of two.
My Daughter, Arianna is three.
My Son, Jackson will be three months.
I Weighed 138 before kids.
I am currently down to 190, from 212 when my son was born.
I am not only self conscious of my weight & the way i look
but i am also very shameful..
I really feel like this shouldnt have happened to me.
Well, rather... I shouldnt have let it happen...
This is definitely NO joke to me.
I want to do this. I HAVE to do this.
My babies need a happy and a healthy mommy.
I've lost 11 pounds since 6/26/11
i have about 60 to go.
30 or 40 will surfice..
I'm looking for friends to share stories, encouragement and to gain motivation from.
feel free to add me!:smile:

    Good for you! the best way to reach success is to understand "This is a slow process" realize that and it helps prevent you from becoming demotivated. This is also a lifestyle change, eating the way you once did is no longer an option, thats what got you into this deal, its time to find some new healthy treats!

    Best of luck and congrats on the 11lbs Thats 11 lbs worth of victory right there!

  • Thanks :) I am very VERY proud of my 11 pound loss.. just NOT of the sudden halt once I got there.
    I am slowly but surely understanding the dynamics to this whole ordeal.
    theres a lot more to it thank i ever imagined.
    apparently, those girls who lose all their baby weight with no effort truly are lucky.
    i could not TELL you the amount of calories i consumed daily before finding this app on my phone..
    i NEVER would have guessed!
    but thanks so much for the support :)
