Yeah I usually gain about 2-3 pounds at that time of the month.

My motivation is my daughter who is in my profile picture. She is almost 7 months and will be crawling soon and I want to be able to keep up with her and play with her as much as she wants without feeling completely worn out!

I'm starting at 240 and would like to get down to 170 because I'm 5'10" and would not look good being that small. I like some of my curves, just not all of them. :) I would love to be an 8 at some point but would be happy with a 10 too.

I am on the Mirena too and I have had it for about 6 months and have noticed that I gained back most of my pregancy weight and other issues. I have been debating about getting mine removed and getting something else because I already had to start taking iron supplements because the mirena gave me an iron deficiency.

I'm right there with you. My daughter is 6 months old and between stress and adjusting to mommy hood and I had to change hours at work, its making it really hard to lose any weight and find time where I can do anything for myself. :(
