    Ugh, isn't that the worst!? I hate that period right after having a baby where nothing fits and you just can't bring yourself to even buy one outfit from a thrift store! I also have all boys (four of them, my youngest will be a year in a couple weeks). I'm sending you a friend request right now. Feel free to ask me anything, I have years of experience in health and fitness (I just need to quit making excuses about why I'm not where I should be. I'm human!).

    Hi Marie! Ahhhhh, to you be young! Haha not that I'm old-- I'm 41! But it seems to be so much harder to lose weight than it used to be! Whatever you do, don't get discouraged just stick wtih it. Some days my weight will be down but the next day it jumps up a couple pounds without doing much different. I have noticed a big difference by watching my salt intake.

    It takes more time to pack a lunch and bring it to work but that has done wonders. Stay away from the lean cuisines and processed foods of you can! Sometimes you gotta do but if you can make some chicken, turkery burgers, talapia (you can put the individual packages in the microwave) and eat that for a few meals, you are set. I eat a lot of tuna too- with one piece of healthy (high fiber and grain) bread. Of course dont forget your fruits and veggies. I get to the gym about 4-5 days a week and do cardio with a few weights. You can do a lot at home too-- like push ups and sit ups etc. Or even pushing your kids in the stroller for a walk is GREAT exercise! Every little bit helps! We all need support-- I'm here if you need more friends but it looks like you have a whole bunch now :-) Hope my humble tips help you.
