in Introduce Yourself
My son is two years old in December. I still have about 30 lbs. of baby weight that I would absolutely love to lose.
See, I was very high risk while pregnant due to preeclampsia. I ballooned to at least 186 before I was put on bed rest. To go from 120ish and size three to 180's and god knows what size in a few short months certainly took a toll on my body AND my self esteem.
Anywho, I'm still here. And more motivated than ever to get myself into gear. I need to shape up for my health, my confidence, and my boy.
Currently, I'm at a bit of a plateau at 146. I've added some cardio to my routine, hoping that will make a difference.
What I would LOVE though is a pal as serious as I am about getting healthy and getting in shape. I've had a really rough emotional go of life since he was born, and I need that extra kick in the butt to keep me in line.
