hey ladies add me if you like, new mommy to 3 month old, pretty active on here :)

Thank you all for sharing your experiences! I think I also have to work it a littler harder too. It is so hard to be patience, because it is like all of a sudden you have this completely different body after slowly getting use to changes for nine months.

Saw your profile, I started my lifestyle change around same age as you and have been able to stay healthy for several years now. Also I did a lot of research into food addiction which I noticed you mentioned in your profile, add me if you want :)

30 year old new mom with 8 week old would like to drop 30

Thanks for reminding me to see little one as motivation. I felt that way when I was pregnant with him. I wanted him to be as healthy as possible so I ate great and stayed active. I seemed to have lost that focus. Appreciate the support ladies!

This is great advice, thank you! Goal today will be burning calories while spending time with him. Will see what we can work up!

I am feeling the same!!!!! It is ridiculous! I was so healthy during pregnancy, ate pretty great and stayed active and NOW post baby (he is seven weeks) I am eating up a storm (with lots of unhealthy choices) and I've worked out only twice. I am so desperate to go back to liking what I see in the mirror!!! Add me Mommies!

Hola! Add me. I just gave birth seven weeks ago. I was proud of my weight gain during pregnancy (35 pds) I was able to eat healthy while still enjoying lots of treat and stayed active (yoga and dance mostly). Post baby is seemly MUCH more difficult! Having super hard time getting back to eating right and working out.…

Just gave birth seven weeks ago and am desperate to get back to healthy lifestyle, feel like been putting on more pounds post baby, could use extra motivation to stay committed as well!

Awesome, thank you!

Due middle of February. Friend me if you like :)

Look into Mindful eating. There are many practices you can do even with your busy schedule. Check out the Mindful Eating or Eating the Moment. Also if you google mindful eating some great links come up. This really help me when I realized I had an overeating/binging problem.…

Post has motivated me to finally upload pics! Was waiting to lose the last five pounds, but realize I should be proud of what I have down so far!!! How do I post the pics??? Have them on my profile don't know how to upload here....

I LOVE Bikram Yoga, not much ever in the moment because it is tough! 105 degrees and 40% humidity and not a class if you are looking just for stretching and relaxing. It has totally changed my overall health. Less back problem, less anxiety, less of a lot of negativity and lots of overall great feeling in my body and mind.…

Amazing pics! And incredibly support. When I hit my current goal I am gonna post "before and now" shot ;)

CONGRATS!!!! Way to make yourself a priority! Happy healthy days to you!!!

Google mindful eating (or click links below). Also something I have been doing lately is deciding before I go out if I will eat or drink. I find when I drink (alcohol) while I eat, I eat more. So I will either meet up for drinks only (eat something filling or healthy before) or meet up for food and not order any cocktails,…

GOOD FOR YOU!!!!

Anyone looking for support, please feel free to add me! I made a similar post beginning of this year and it has been incredibly helpful!!!

been so curious what the calories I burn during bikram are. Won't get it if doesn't really tally it for yoga.

Post really moved me today. Just went to Bikram and did the best I have ever done. During all the postures was thinking to myself "decide" to do it and I seriously pushed farther than ever. Thank you!

I am!

Makes such a difference with MFP friends!!! I felt the same exact way, posted on message board and got great response. It has really helped to have new friends to motivate me! Love that you are on here!!!

Yum! Just made picadillo on stove and hubby said probably could use the crock pot and then saw your post! THANKS! Also yummy with sweet potatoes.

Can I just say I am so moved by how quickly people responded. Feel motivation already!!!

Welcome back! Looking for some support as well.

Friend me I could really use some motivation as well! Been trying to get my friends on here but they never post. Just seeing that someone else is logging food or working out really helps!

Congrats!
