    Welcome Raedeen!

    What is your exercise background? Obviously the key is to start slow. Sometimes it will feel too slow, but it's not worth risking injury. A couple things that I've noticed have really caught on here at MFP:

    1.) take measurements: bust, waist, hips (and any others you want to monitor) so that when the scale isn't moving you don't get depressed. Usually the tape measure will keep moving!

    2.) Set short term goals. When you achieve those, add new ones until you change your lifestyle to one of health. It sounds obvious, but most of us aren't/weren't doing that or we woulnd't be here!

    3.)Put out a post about favorite mommy video's for at-home workouts while the kids nap. I have two in a series that I paid $1.00 each at Walmart and love them. Bunches here who swear by yoga, tae bo, belly dancing, etc. Choose your poison!

    Good luck! :flowerforyou:
