Hello People!

I recently had a baby in December, and gained 66 lbs. I was 127 before I was pregnant, and gained almost 200 lbs. Now, I'm 145 lbs. My goal is to reach 130 by April. I'm loving this website!! I've been looking for something like this, and I've finally found it! :smile:

    :happy: congradulation on new baby and on doing something for yourself. To many times "moms" forget about themselves. But if mom is happy and healthy then everyone benifits from this.

    Welcome.
    Lots of us are in the same boat.

    My weight is baby weight as well. He's about 8 months and I am at prepregnancy weight now, but I was overweight to start with so this site is helping me get to a healthier place all around.

    Good luck.:happy:

    Hi,
    My name is Jessica and I'm new here. I joined because I really need to lose weight first for my health and second for my family. I recently was diagnosed with uterian and ovarian cancer, I battled it and won so now it's time for me to get myself into a healthy life. I definately want to be a success story I've hit a couple of stops with my calorie in take but I think I've gotten down.
    Good Luck 2 everyone!!:flowerforyou:

    P.S The picture is of me and my Best Friend, she's been a big part of my support system...Thanks LIZ
