I too had pre-eclampsia during my pregnancy, I gained 3 or so lbs a week until I delivered at 36 weeks. I had a very scary pregnancy and delivery which lead to emergency surgery and 4 pints of blood. I thought after I had my daughter I would just simply lose the weight easy. Which I may have had my thyroid held up. I now…

WOW! You look amazing and are seriously motivating. Keep up the good work!

I'm In!

I know what you are talking about, ive had success with mfp but I let life get in the way and made excuses and here I am heavier than when I first joined! I need this to work not only for my self but to be a healthy mother for my 3 year old daughter. My little brother who is only 7 started calling me Big mama ya know like…

Yes, fast food is the devil lol. It's so hard when we travel to different states to not try the food. I must say I hate Ive regained the weight ive lost but all that food was so worth it, well in a way lol. Now to avoid eating out so much and even making better choices when we eat at home.

I would love for anyone with a large goal of weight to lose to add me. I have gained so much weight from pregnancy, complication during pregnancy, binge eating, health issues, and so much more. I really don't know how im going to stay motivated, id like to lose at LEAST 100 lbs, ideally( if thats a word lol) Id like to…

I have PCOS and was rescribe metform a year ago after taking it two weeks and being so sick i couldnt eat I stopped taking it. Went back to the dr. wednesday to find my sugar levels were high so now here I am again attempting to take it. I took my first dose today and I will let you know how i do this time. I just pray it…

Did not realize how hard 50 jumping jacks would be WOW!! I will do 200 for the night is up!! Ready to get this skinny girl out!!

Hello, I am a stay at home mom to a 2and 1/2 year old, she keeps me on my toes! I have been with her daddy for close to 6 years and we got hitched in November, 11-11-11 to be exact. In highschool I was always the heavy girl never to the point I got made fun of(that much) but now im about 40-60 lbs higher than my highest…

I have alot of extra skin due to gaining alot of weight during pregnancy, I dont think ill ever have a flat stomach and im ok with that. It's a part of me. I do know that no matter what you try there is nothing you can do about stretch marks. Once our skin rips there is no unripping it. It will fade over time and ive even…

I thought id share my story to keep you hopeful. I have PCOS and when I was in highschool I had to have 2 different surgerys, one to remove a 13 cm cyst and another to remove 2 cyst around 7 cm and half of my left fallopian tube. a couple years later I got pregnant. The ob gyn who done my surgery said id have a terrible…

You have done a WONDERFUL job and give people like me hope. I can relate, I always seemed to have super skinny friends in school and was always the fat girl. I had even heard the line you have a pretty face, so for girls like us I hope you make some of those guys (who were to lame to get to know you and just judged you…

Hello Everyone, Im almost 23 and my little girl will be 3 in August. I have 100+ lbs to lose and all motivation would be appreciated.

I wouldn't think eww if i seen a sweaty person leaving the gym, id think dang they got their workout on!! I have seen people workout way longer than me and they talk and laugh and carry on while i winded and having trouble breathing, im thinking WTF??? Don't let this discourage you from working out, im almos 100% positive…

Most workout DVDs requir jumping of some sort. You could always improvise instead of jumping do squats. Also try taebo, there is alot of punching in most of them. Hope this helps and best of luck!

Thanks souch for the post!!! I have ALOT of weight to lose and want you to know you inspired me!!! YOU LOOK AMMMMMMAZINGGGG!!!! All mothers who have stretch marks (i do) are only tigers who have eared their stripes!!!

You can do this!! I have found that gum helps with my cravings, I mean really I just want something sweet, so why not gum, after a few minutes of chewing I often forget the cravings. It's ok to give in some days, so that we do not just break over and give up. Remember the goal you set yourself and now think your HALF WAY…

Thanks, Im going to go slow and steady this round. I have battled to keep off the weight I lost all last year. I am now a few lbs heavier than when I started. Most people would give up, I am not!! I want to feel good about myself again!
