  • I can't tell you all of the specifics about losing weight as I'm still figuring that out myself, but what I can tell you, or rather tell your husband, is that you should NEVER give up. I used to be easily discouraged. I had always been a really petite person, and when I started gaining weight after having children, I…
  • Thank you for the support, and allowing me to add you.
  • I agree. I don't think a limited amount of strength training is necessarily bad; however muscle does help in the weigh loss process. I would say if you feel you're going to bulk up, limit the strength training, but don't avoid it entirely.

  • Well, it all depends on your body type. Having thick thighs and a big butt is not necessarily a bad thing. Even at 115 lbs, my thighs were always thicker and my butt was thick as well.

I don't want a new diet; I want a new lifestyle, and I hoping to find that support here amongst all the beautiful mothers. I wish you all the best…
  • Hello, everyone! My name is Crystal. I'm a divorced mother of three who has been stuck on a weight roller coaster for the last 10 years. Before having children, I never weighed more than 120 lbs. However, since becoming a mom, my lifestyle has slowed down, and become more family oriented as opposed to the young girl on the…
