    I have a 2 year old son also!!! I have found that walking with him in the stroller is the best ever! he loves the outdoors and when I am done walking at the track he gets to play at the park a little bit. I hope that is something that you and your son can do

    Hi I'm Megan. I just got back home from college a few months ago and have started working at a job where I sit almost the whole time so I need to get more active! I've been on MFP for a while, but I'm just now getting serious about it. I lost 20 pounds in college, but my newest goal is to lose 40 pounds by the time I go visit my boyfriend in August. I could really use some friends and encouragement! :)

    Hi, I'm Jill. I don't know why it says I just joined MFP recently when I have been logging my calories on here on and off for a year. LOL I did just start looking at the message boards a few days ago, so maybe that's it. So, I have been "dieting" for a little over a year and have lost 73 pounds...I'd like to lose at least 25 more, but I guess I will just wait and see how I look as I keep losing. :)
