Hi Rachel. My name is Adrienne and I just started my diet today. I had a baby back in August and I need to drop the weight. Its hard with working full time and having the baby and a husband and house...etc. I have my husband doing the diet with me and we take turns exercising. He entertains the baby.while I workout and vice versa. I love the Pilates.body ring Dvd. Its awesome and is a good 40 min workout that works everything. We can stay motivated together if you want.0

Becoming a mom is awesome! But your life is never the same and finding your new groove can take time and become frustrating. Kudos to you for taking time for you. I have 5 kids, my youngest is 9 months, so i can understand how you feel. I am determined to lose my baby weight also. As moms we can use all the encouragement we can get!0

Hi, my name is Lauren and my diet also starts today. I would like to drop the weight I've gained from my daughter as well as the pounds I put on before her. This is my first child, she is 10 weeks old and I am going back to school starting next monday. I'm taking an exercise class which will help but I would like to find some friends for support as well as just some friends to hang out with that know what I'm going through.0

Hi ladies! Nice to meet you all! Becoming a mom has been the best thing to ever happen to me but it sure has taken a toll on my body. I will be the first to admit that I was never one for diet and exercise but while I was pregnant I indulged a little too much and gained 60 pounds (yikes!). So here I am, ready to get serious about losing this weight. I hope that with the help of some new friends we can all be the motivation that we need to kick each others butts into gear! Good luck ladies!!0

You will get there...it just takes some time, dedication and motivation. I know its hard to find that extra time to workout when you have a little one at home (my son is 15 months) but maybe get up a little earlier (before your baby wakes up) and do your workout then. That is what I do. My son usually wakes up around 7:30 or so. So Im up at 5:30-6 am to do my workout and get myself ready before he wakes up. I am lucky to have my own workout space in my basement, but even if you dont have equipment at home, buy a few fitness DVDs that are 30 minutes long and do those. Something is better than nothing at all.0
