Hi I'm Audrey! I'm a young mom(21) to a beautiful 17 month old daughter. I was 175 when I became pregnant and the day I delivered I was 222.. I can't seem to lose the baby weight! I got down to 203 before getting back on birth control and now I'm back at 217! I'm only 5'3 so I need to lose alot of weight I'm determined to do anything it takes! I want to be 135 but will be happy with being 145-150 by July of this year so about 8 months. Please help I need all the encouragement I can get and weightloss buddies! I work out every day for at least an hour and eat healthy but it's not working!
Thanks!

    Congrats on your little girl! The hardest part of losing weight for me is the lack of motivation that I have! This site really works, there are a lot of good people who truly want to help out in any way :smile: You can add me if you want! I'm always looking for some new people to help motivate who will help motivate me in return!:happy:

    Even though my baby is 17 years, not 17 months We have about the same starting point. I am 5' 3.5" Started MFP in May at 220 lbs. I have lost 71 pounds and now weigh 149. My goal, which is changeable, it now set at 130. I would be happy anywhere from 125-140. I just don't feel I am there yet and would like to lose more fat and tone more.

    Feel free to add me if you like.
