Hi! I'm a mother of two. I restarted my weight loss journey yesterday. Since I started walking last November, I have lost about 10 lbs. I think if I had watched what I ate, I probably would have lost more, but my goal is to lose at least 30 lbs more. I really want to do this so I am healthier and feel better about myself. I know I need some help and support.

Hi, I am a mother of 3. I also have 2 stepdaughters and 8 step grandchildren. I am only 37 so you can imagine how much energy I don't have. My fiance and I have 5 girls ranging in age from 5 up to 29. Our grandchildren range from the ages of 2 months clear up to the age of 11. I am looking to lose weight to not only be able to play with the grandchildren more but to hopefully help some of my physical limitations. I have tried so hard to lose weight in the past but I seem to fail each and every time. I actually weigh more now than I did when I was pregnant with my youngest daughter. I am looking for support, friends and help.

I'm 24 with a 3 year old and 1 month old. I didn't lose all of the baby weight from my first plus whatever I gained after. I want to lose 60lbs or so and get down to my original weight before I had my kids, as well as be healthier for myself and family.

Hi! I'm Myranda! I'm a 19 year old first time mom to a two year old son! I'm losing weight because I'm sick of not liking what I see in my reflection, I used to be skinny, but I gained a lot of weight when I got pregnant and just never had the motivation to get rid of it, so here I am, trying now. Better late than never, right?

Hi! I am a 30 year old mother of two. And I am trying to lose at least 75 lbs., but 100 would be even better. Before the birth my first son I weighed 150 lbs., and after he was born I dropped back down only packing an extra 5 lbs. after the birth of my second son, I weighed 200 lbs. and only dropped to 195 after his birth. I used to run daily, but I went through a lot of self-esteem issues  and gained about 75 more lbs. I have lost about 10 lbs. but I would really like to get to a healthier weight, my problem is I have lost my sense of self-motivation when it comes to weight loss. My hopes is with this app dinging on my phone all the time and practically shaming me when I over eat, it’ll help motivate me a bit. I have already begun drinking more water due to I didn’t like seeing that little glass empty LOL!!!

Hello,
I am 32 years old. I have a 3-year-old daughter. I have been actively losing weight since January but over the past month, I have really been struggling to stay on track. I really need the support and motivation from others because it inspires me soooo much! I was down 30 lbs but I gained 6 lbs back. I started at 262.2 lbs and I am never going back.

My main goal is to get my heart and body in shape and healthy so that I can feel confident enough to go through another pregnancy. I had a really hard time in my first pregnancy and ended up having preeclampsia. Since then I have been terrified to have another child.

I want to prove to myself that my body can be strong and healthy!!

I need accountability for my recently resurrected poor eating habits. I did so well for a few years and have fallen off the wagon! I'm looking for support and motivation.

Hi, I'm a 35 yo mother of a 7 yo son. When my son was 1 I got into the best shape of my life, but not quite 2 years later I switched from an active job to a desk job, and a year after that I started my MA degree program, and my health has just been getting worse since then.

Hi! I'm 26 almost 27yo. Mom to 3 girls Isabella 5yo, Riley and Regan are 9mo. My SW(CW) is 250lbs, my GW is between 180lbs. I want to lose weight so i can run/play with my kids, so i feel good about myself, so i can fit into regular size clothes, so i'm not tired all the time. So any help/tips will be welcomed!!

Hello everyone. My name is Shawna. I am a 29 year old first time mom to a nearly 1 year old boy. His birthday is on Friday and now that he is officially 1, I am going to start weaning from breastfeeding and figured it is the perfect time to get started on my own health. I started my pregnancy at 270, lost about 30-40 lbs during my pregnancy, but gained it back and then some in the last year. I got on the scale this weekend and it read 298 lb and I couldn't believe it. I refuse to let that scale hit 300. I've used MFP with some success before so here I am again to give it another go!

Hello! I'm a married, full-time working, momma of two boys, 2 and 8 months. They keep me on my toes and I fell like I am starting to sit on the sidelines when it comes to play time. I have struggled with my weight all my life and after 2 c-sections and very little exercise these last couple years I am in the worse shape I've ever been in. I want to be an example for my family and I want to be involved in every area of my kids lives so sitting on the sideline is not an option. I don't want my weight to hold me back anymore! I'm really looking forward to this accountability and I hope I can find a few people to help keep me accountable and to connect with.
