Hello

I'm new here, and new to loosing weight. I've always been tiny, all of my life, but after kid #2 I've gained 40 pounds, and realize that I have no idea how to get rid of it. I am not a emotional eater, I have always eaten when I am hungry and stopped when I'm full--except now I'm not able to figure out when I'm full until I am stuffed. I am not sure if it is a left over from gorging when I was pregnant or what, but I'm having to relearn how to eat. :( It is not fun. I hope y'all can help.

Katy from NC.

    Hi,
    I am pregnant but hopefully won't be in 8 weeks and I have already put on 32 pounds so far. This is my third kid and I keep gaining and gaining with each kid. This is the biggest I have been so I understand where you are coming from.
