Wow! You look younger! Excellent job!

I can totally tell a difference in your whole body! I see you are now over 100 lbs lost... do you have any new photos? I'd love to see more success.

You two are so adorable and I LOVE your decorating style... and your story and results are amazing. What a fantastic journey to take together. I can't wait for the next updates.

I agree with what some others have said... the fact that it took 2 years (with some slips) is probably the most inspirational part. I get caught in the same trap as others... when I work out so hard and eat so good and don't see the results I expect (think I deserve... LOL!) I am often tempted to give up. But this is an…

I gained 37 and had lost 22 by 6 weeks pretty effortlessly. The last 15 has hung on. It absolutely would not budge while I was breastfeeding... despite what everyone says, it does not help every body type lose weight. I religiously logged by meals, adjusted calories up and down and walked my dog 2 miles a day then ran 2…

It will come back to you. I was super motivated about a month after I gave birth until he was about 6 months old. I religiously logged my meals, I walked or ran everyday. I did workout videos while he napped etc. I pretty much saw nothing, no change... I was still stuck 15 pounds over I was when I got pregnant. I lost…

Welcome. You will find lots of supportive people here. Friend people (you can friend me) and use them for support. When I feel discouraged I always browse the "success stories" posts. So many people there that have truly amazing stories and photos and so inspirational. Take a before photo now to inspire you. You don't have…

I love this post and am loving the replies. I hope they are helpful! I really have no advice that would be better than what others have provided, but just wanted to give a BIG congrats on the 100 pound loss. If you have before and after pictures bring them with you... hopefully it will remind you of the hard work you have…

I love this post, you are gorgeous and very inspirational.

Commenting to find and reference later. Great info as usual.

Completely agree! Sometimes I feel so bad about what I read people respond and sadly I often am afraid to comment in support for fear of being attacked myself. There are people on here of all health and skill levels. That's what makes it wonderful because its an invaluable source of information and support from people who…

So nice to see some thirty-somethings with families! I'm 37 married with a one year old. I'm so glad you came on and found the community here. Honestly browsing these groups, reading and being motivated by photos has saved me from my before-bed binges on many a night. This is my go-to location to waste an hour or two…

Stay active on here and make some supportive friends. I've "met" some wonderful people on here and even though we've never met and probably never will they keep me motivated and inspired. My baby turns one next month so I'm about the same place you are as far as timing. Still struggling to get to my pre-pregnancy weight,…

I pretty much agree with what has already been said. I'm not familiar with the new program, but on the old one I lost the 15 pounds I wanted to lose and became a lifetime member. I know some people enjoy the physical meetings and weekly accountability. I never really went to the meetings, just went in once a week to weigh…

Same story as many others. I gained 37 during pregnancy. I lost 22 almost without effort in the first month. Then I was stuck, gaining 2 losing 2 for 7 months. leaving me 15 pounds to lose. No matter how much I worked out, what I ate... nothing helped. Then I stopped breast-feeding. 5 pounds dropped of within the first…

He is definitely my "guilty pleasure". Even when I don't feel like exercising I can put him in and he puts a smile on my face.

I don't think having sugar is bad and if depriving yourself of it makes you "crazy" when you do have it, then that's more detrimental to you than anything.... not only do you start thinking (or perhaps actually) eating bad, but you start mentally beating yourself up about it. For me it works to plan my day out even the…

Feel free to add me! I'm 36 with one child born 6 months ago. Have been on MFP for 5 months with very little progress... 22 dropped off like nothing and this last 15 has been impossible! I'm hoping once I stop nursing it will go away. I would love more friends...!
-
I love these kind of stories! SO inspirational. You are beautiful.
-
Beautiful!
-
I'm the same height and started at the same weight (due to pregnancy). You are an inspiration and look fabulous! Way to go!
-
Nothing is working for me right now, but I'm breastfeeding so seem to have stalled. I'm trying to stay positive though. I eat healthy and recently started running. It has to budge eventually. I'll be here for a while so I'll support you... :)
-
Feel free to add me. I'm 36 with a 5 month old who is trying to lose the last 15 pounds of pregnancy weight. Loosing this weight seems to be the hardest thing I've ever done. I've been on since March, eating well and exercising and haven't really lost a thing.... :( Just yo-yo. Maybe when I stop feeding?? Anyhow, welcome!!
-
Both of your posts made me laugh... :laugh: She sounds crazy! And by your ticker you're at or near your goal weight so clearly you know what works for you Little different situation, but when I first met my husband's new secretary when we got to Korea she told me in her broken English... "This pretty"... touches my face,…

My pregnancy weight has been a bear to get rid of. My son is almost 5 months old and I've been working since he was a month old. I'm breastfeeding and figuring out the calories I need to lose weight but still maintain my milk supply has been an almost impossible task. Anyhow, I try to exercise in my house when he takes a…

I originally liked the second one, but then I re-read the post and noticed it is for your anniversary.... now I like the blue one. The neckline is sexy and seems more "flirty" than the second one... happy anniversary!

Wow, 8 kids is impressive! Eating healthy is important, but especially when you are breastfeeding. There are days I under eat and it affects my milk supply right away. :( Welcome to the group and good luck on your weight loss journey. Feel free to friend me if you want. I only have one child who is almost 5 months old.

Feel free to friend me. Welcome. :smile:

Feel free to add me too. I have a few friends and I love them... they inspire me and keep me coming back everyday.
