Hi! I'm new too. I am breastfeeding my 2 month old daughter and I also have a three year old daughter. I have only been using MFP for a week, but I am used to tracking as I used to be on WW. I think the hardest thing is sticking with it - I would get too relaxed about tracking as time passed. I am trying to fit back in my pre pregnancy clothes and then lose additional weight. Really motivated at this time in my life to get in shape and improve health overall. My downfall is making myself exercise in this horrible Louisiana summertime heat. But I am trying of take my toddler swimming at a family member's house a few times a week. Once your son is older, you will get extra exercise chasing him around : ) My 3-year-old keeps me moving.

I really like this app and today I discovered that if you are using it on your phone, you can set it up to remind you to track your food. That may be helpful to you. And maybe you can find a friend at work who is also trying to lose weight and stay active, to keep you going during the end of the year. Good luck!
