I gained over 50lbs whilst pregnant with my second. Youngest is now 14 months so I really can't use the excuse that I've just had a baby anymore. So the weight needs to go. I've got about 38lbs to lose. Currently a sahm, have an 8 years old and a 1 year old. Would love some other mummy friends for support and motivation.

    Losing baby weight is tough! Specially because our babies often treat us like human dustbins!!
    Feel free to add me - I get how hard it can be!

    I just had my 2nd (6 weeks) and gained way too much conceiving and during pregnancy, I have 20kg to lose currently. I'm hoping to have my weight gone by the time I finish breastfeeding as I'm utilising those extra calories.

    Right there with ya! Except mine are almost 6 and 4. :D I gained too much weight with #1, didn't lose all of it before #2 was on the way, and gained even more weight with #2! It is so hard to make time to work out (it always feels like there's something else I should be doing) and too easy to more than I should and stuff i shouldn't. I do feel better (and seem to be less irritable / better able to handle everything) when i work out and eat better. Feel free to add me - I could definitely use some mom friends!
