in Introduce Yourself
Hello! I'm Shannon. I'm not normally very good at these things. Hard to keep motivated. I had a baby in May and have lost 24 lbs since then. I'm still about 7 pounds away from pre-pregnancy but then would like to lose about another 100. Baby steps though, first goal is to button my pants again!!

My husband is also trying to lose some weight (only about 20 lbs) and is supportive but I feel dumb talking to him about this kind of stuff. When we'd go to our prenatal visits I'd make him turn around when they weighed me, I was so embarassed. Having someone to talk to where I feel I can be honest and not ashamed would be awesome.

    I'm fairly new myself, but you've made the right choice joining MFP! Everyone is so supportive and friendly.

    Anywho, good luck with getting started!
