Hi everyone! My name is Terra. I'm 21 and just had a baby girl, Maci, 9 weeks ago. I'm ready to get back in the swing of things and kick some butt, but I need some help. Hopefully I can find that here!

    Good Luck! I have 3 kids (5, 4 and 1) so I know how hard it is! Stick to it and you will do great!

    you're young so you will do just fine! I was 30 when my daughter was born, she's 1 now. I hear it's harder the older you get.

    Hi Terra! I've had 4 kids. The first 2 were when I was in my 20's and the last one was born 3 months ago! It is harder to lose when you get older BUT you CAN do it. I'm struggling this time because I'm breastfeeding and this time, the weight is taking a little more time to come off but it will and I'll just keep working at it until I get to where I want to be. When I had my first two in my 20's, the weight came off overnight so don't worry, you can kick this!

    Thanks everyone! That's even more motivation to do it now, since it's supposed to be easier now. I thought breastfeeding would help more than it has.. but maybe I'm just being impatient. I AM a few pounds below my pre pregnancy weight, so I guess I should just be thankful for that. Thanks for the warm welcome, I look forward to meeting everyone and getting down to business!
