I spotted this group and thought it looked great! I've been part of mfp for about two years. I joined after the birth of my second child that had left me 80 pounds overweight. I lost all but 15 pounds but then got pregnant again with our third. exercise frequently but still gain 40 pounds. so here I am again trying to shed the pounds! I look forward to encouraging and being encouraged in this website! . I have 2 girls ages 4 and 2, and one son who was born in the beginning of December. I have been married to my wonderful husband for almost 8 years! I lost most of my weight training and running in a half marathon last year, and I'm register to run another one this June!
