    Hi there :)

    Feel free to add me too! I have a 3 year old daughter and 14 month old son and hit my highest weight of 14st13lbs about this time last year, not long after his birth! I'm about half way to my absolute goal now and would appreciate some more support too :)

    Is everyone managing to find time to exercise? I have just started the Biggest Loser challenge on the Wii - really enjoying it so far :)

    Di :):happy:

    Hi,

    Welcome to MFP. I gained loads of weight with each of my pregnancys, lost it all then gained loads with an underactive thyroid. Trying desperately to lose the weight and have lost 8.5lbs with MFP so far. Im looking for friends for motivation too so feel free to add me.

    Your not on your own here, loads of motivation to go round and loads of useful tips and ideas for meals and snacks.

    Good luck and let your journey begin :)

    Hey Vikki, thanks for adding me! I am not a woman but I have a wife and two teenage daughters so I understand your plight to some extent.

    I love MFP and use it on my mobile device as well as the PC to track what I eat and what I burn. If you combine this with reasonable goals it will have great success!

    Plus, I have seen some great recipes and exercise ideas too.

    Sounds like we came to the right place for motivation and support. It takes time to lose the weight after having a baby, but you can do it! How do you add people? I'm new to this.
