I had my first in September. Everyone said I would loose the weight breastfeeding. They lied! And they didn't tell me about the hunger involved. Add me if you want ☺ I'm just getting more active on here.

HI! I'm a new mum to an almost 6 mth old. I've just brought a fit bit to encourage me to loose and I need to loose around 100 pounds. Tomorrow is my starting day so I'll be a lot more active ☺

HI! I'm 4 months pp on the 27th. This month I've just started to try to eat Better and I've lost 2 kg (4 pounds? ) since the 1st. I'm BF and I've wanted to wait until my supply was established before doing anything. I've just started to log loosely this week and getting in some walking. Please feel free to add me, it will…

HI ladies! I'm due Sept 22. First time mum and I'm 6weeks + 3 days. I'm having terrible morning sickness and nausea. I've been trying all the hacks and man its rough. I'm trying to stay at maintenance -when I've logged but it's a struggle just to eat healthy to be honest.

I tried it about a year and 3 mths ago. I did for only a month. It was crazy expensive having to buy their food then fruit veges dairy etc on top of that + my partners foods. Cooking the meals was easy but then seeing my partner eat nicer food was hard! Some meals were yum and some were terrible. I think the breakfast was…

I'm 28 add me too!

Oh yes! I'm on several times a day just reading the forums! feel like I've re learnt so much in regards to eating better and exercise. Wish I found this a few years ago!

What these guys said ^^ Better to face reality now and get back on track than in 3 months or more. I would go to the doctor to talk about it. They might refer you to a counsellor and or dietitian or even anti depressants. In the mean time when your feeling 'strong' step on those scales. Give your self 10 minutes to be…

I read mfp posts.. keeps me motivated, Looking up new healthy recipes to get inspired. Play on phone. Anoy my sleeping cat. paint nails. Brush my cat.. I'm not very exciting sorry!

Go with how you feel on the day? I always take it easy the first 3 days and maybe try to do more walking but once it gets lighter and the cramps have eased then I feel 'normal' and full of energy. Maybe try starting with light exercise and see how that goes.

Congratulations too!

Probably not worth risking the growth of your unborn child. talk to your doctor or midwife etc before making any changes but I would suggest maintenance.

Pick me pick me!

Just added you. Im on daily unless I loose my phone (app user) I'm always wanting more friends to talk not just like.

I went to the doctor today and she thinks I have PCOS. Got bloods done to test thyroid, testosterone etc and she also gave me metformin. For the last few months I've been calorie counting and I'm doing pretty good but have bearly lost anything. I'm pretty new but ild like to see what othere have to say.. feel free to add…

I've never been crafty but recently took up candle making. Its soothing :)

I'm sorry :( my mum died last Feb very suddenly too. I've struggled alot with the grief and still do. My suggestion for you is to just look after YOURSELF. Do what makes you happy. Cry, scream,have long hot baths etc. One month in I was still in shock.. It's hard loosing your mumma especially if your very close. And honey,…

Bump. Really enjoy reading this - very insightful

Losing weight is hard. Being fat is harder.

My SO is somewhat supportive. He will eat the junkfood I buy so I can't eat it (lol), if cooking veges he will help me weigh items an will eat what I cook for him. However he won't cook healthy - adds loads of butter, oil, cheese etc. I got to my weight by eating as much as him and eating what he eats. Plus no exercise.…

28 just started doing this seriously

Happens to me all the time. So last week I spent some time prepping boiled eggs, carrot sticks etc in a container in the fridge. So if I'm feeling like munching I can make healthy choices.

I'm looking for more friends to chat to and get motivation. It's great seeing the progress others make and helps me to stay focused. (Still new and starting again)

I've always wanted to try! I imagine you need upper body strength.. which I don't have..

Thank you all for your uplifting comments. I've just researched a gym in my area and will go see them. (Push that anxiety away) All your comments are giving me motivation and I see myself in all if them. If anyone wants to take on a noob to mentor or be friends please add me. I need all the advice and motivatio one can…

About 18 months to be honest. I've had some really difficult personal stuff during this time. Mum passing away suddenly. Complicated grief, depression and anxiety, brother abusing me emotionally (now cut off), loss of job. I know that there is NO excuse for gaining so much. I was / am in denial.

Hi I'm from nz. Waikato. I'm 28 and 110 kgs. Struggling to be consistent with healthy eating.
