    Hi! I'm Jess 40 and have one little boy (10) I went up around 150+ pounds then said enough, I started on this site at 147 lbs and have lost 27 lbs :) I'm still really squishy so focusing hard on building muscles. So while at a healthy weight I'm normal fat and need to fix that. I guess I lost too much muscle in my bid to get it off fast. (Whoops!) (Fast being it took me 4 years.) I'm looking for changes in inches on my waist and gut not the scale.

    HELLO! I'm in the same boat. No problem losing after my first child but I haven't lost a lb since having my second 15 months ago.

    I finally weaned her so I don't need to deal with my low breastmilk supply any more. Any time I tried to lose weight I lost my milk instead. I'm on domperidone for lactation which makes me hungry but should be done taking them by May 26 (I have to go off slowly).

    I want to lose 15 to 19 lbs. And I just want to get it over with. Safely but quickly. I'm hoping to lose 10-15 by July 20 when I return to work and need more of my clothes to fit.
