Calling all SEXY MAMA's and WANNA BE's ;)

Last try....

Well crap...what am I doing wrong?

This sounds like fun -- I would like to join in too.

Count me in!

I so wanna be a hot momma!:sad: Tired of carrying around "baby weight" from a 13 year old, and a 11 year old!

My name is Rachael. I live in Columbia, SC and I just had a baby boy 3.5 weeks ago. This is my first child and I was in pretty good shape pre-pregnancy so I was hoping to bounce back into shape pretty easily but that has not necessarily happened lol. I have a really hard time with will power against bad food and sometimes I need motivation to exercise. It is especially hard when my weekends are filled with college and professional football and all the lovely bad food that goes along with that lol. Its hard to be healthy when everyone around you is eating bad food. I also will be going back to work part-time next month and starting nursing school in january so I know I will use those as excuses to not exercise and eat bad. Thats why I need motivation and support and I think this group will be perfect for that!!

Let's see here.... I am a 24 year old SAHM mom to a lively 9.5 month old. I work from home part time, during DS's naps and after he goes to bed. I had a rough pregnancy, borderline pre-clampsia, and gained 40 pounds in a month from fluid retention. I delivered DS at 252, by 6 weeks post partum, I was at 215. I am now at 191 and would like to get to 150ish. I am 5'8. I am doing the C25k program with DH, and I also love, love, love Jillian Michael's workouts.

Oh yeah! Sexy Mama Here! LOL.... I am in!

I am a wanna be! I am looking for a group to join that would help motivate me! As soon as I start to show some progress I get side tracked!!!!! Your idea sounds great!!!! :happy:

Test to see if my icon works in my signature!

Welcome, KOlmert... My husband is from upstate NY... cool. (I'm a Texas girl, born and raised....)

Way to go, annasgyal!!!! Get it, Get it!!!

Can i Join in im a mom of two kids under two... im also from Texas... College Station, TX
Christopher-19 months
Zachary-1 month

Testing my new siggy. I'm also being bad tonight and drinking. :drinker: :ohwell:

I would definitely like to join the fun - I am very new to MFP - but so far I love it!!!

My name is Alicia, I am 29 years old and I'm a single SAHM to two gorgeous girls - Zoe who is 3 years old and Grace who is 12 months old. So life is pretty busy looking after the little ones by myself - but I seem to have worked out a little routine that means I can maintain some sanity and sometime to really look after myself.

Weight-wise I have gotten under my pre-pregnancy weight already - but I still have a fair chunk of weight to lose before I finally hit my UGW. So I am trying to eat clean and train mean to get that last bit of weight off! At the moment I am doing the 30 day shred - just finished level 1 - day 6, so that is kicking my *kitten*. After that I might take on ripped in 30. Gotta love Jillian

So a bit more about me - I'm an Aussie , I love zombie movies, watercolour painting, power walking, weights and cake decorating.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you all!


PS I am happy to be a co-moderator if you like? I have the spare time.

My mother-in-law, who is like a mother to me is my motivation! A few months ago she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and her ability to fight and keep an awesome outlook on life is my motivation!!!! I want to become a healthy example for my kids! Another motivation for me is that I had gestational diabetes so I am at greater risk for diabetes later in life. I would like to avoid this at all costs so I am hoping eating right and exercise will keep me healthy enough to not get it!

:bigsmile: Sorry for all the posts this morning, but.....


Aliciazac and I are discussing daily topics and challenges for our group..... We will get everything worked out and organized and it will be awesome! :drinker:


Since today is SUnday, I thought a great topic of conversation would be MOTIVATION. What is your Motivation? What is motivating to you? What KEEPS you motivated... Or even post a motivational saying that helps you on your journey....

Sundays will be MOTIVATIONAL SUNDAY so every Sunday we can post something motivational...


For me, Philipians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ which strengthenth me" has always been a motivation Scripture verse for me... I have even printed it out on little pieces of paper and posted it around my house before LOL... (need to do that again)

Also, BEING A RUNNER is a great motivation... I really, REALLY want to be a runner... I am starting (re-restarting the C25K...again..if anyone is interested or if you are already doing this, let me know!!!!!)

There are two of mine...... Let me hear your's!

My motivation this week: I went to a house warming party for a friend last night, and saw some people I hadn't seen in over 6 months, I tried to hide my excitement when they noticed, I had dropped quite a bit of weight ... Sometimes I feel weird when folks notice, but I really appreciate that my hard work this year has been recognized....

I want to start running, I want to do this race here in Va next year, The Ukrops Monument Ave 10 K, Im trying to get people I know into it here, so maybe they could train for it as well. Its next November, The one this year , is actually next Sat, but there's no way I could make it.

Also, I would like to start going back to church, We have sorta fell out of it, but, I want a well rounded life and I believe God must be part of it too.
