    Welcome

    I also want to lose all the weight I gained during my pregnancies. In the last 3 years I had two children my son in 2008 and daughter in 2010. I never lost all the pounds from my son's pregnancy when I got pregnant with my daughter. I was also breastfeeding but it did not help because I ate the wrong foods and did not exercise. We are here to support each and share our experiences. I wish you the best
