After I had my son, I couldn't wait to start my weigh loss journey. I had a rough time losing weight though. There were weeks where I wouldn't lose anything and there were weeks where I even gained weight. Meanwhile, I was doing everything right, I was eating right and exercising. It has taken a lot of hard work to get…

Thank you everyone for all the kind words and encouragement. :happy:

I do strength training 3 days a week. Sometimes I do my arms and abs 4 times a week. Monday - Full Body Strength Training Tuesday - Rest Wednesday - Full Body Strength Training Thursday - Rest Friday - Full Body Strength Training I also do cardio 3 - 4 times a week. And the days all depend on when I can fit it in between…

Honestly it's a lot of hard work and trial and error. Just watch everything, make sure you are eating enough, and drink lots and lots of water. Eating right/ exercising makes me feel strong and powerful and I can't get enough of that feeling. That feeling feels so good, I just keep pushing myself even on days that I slip…

Age: 24 Height: 5'2" SW: 275 CW: 221.8 GW: 150 I'm a wife and a mom to two kids. I started my weight loss journey 7 months ago and I'm down over 50lbs. I still have a long way to go but I know I'll get there. :happy:

Thanks! I've been watching my calories of course. I had a hard time when I started out because I wasn't eating enough so I had to up my calories and that helped a lot. I was only eating 1400 calories but now I eat about 1750 calories. I drink lots and lots of water. I watch my sodium intake, carbs and protein. I also try…

I dug out my shorts from last year and tried them on to see if they fit or not. No lie they wouldn't stay up. They were so baggy and fell off. I've lost 6 pant sizes already! :bigsmile:

Hi, I'm a 24 year old mom to a 4 year old girl and a 7 month old boy. I would love to have some more mom friends on here to talk to.

I bought a food scale 3 months ago and I use it daily, several times a day. I don't know what I would do without it. I measure everything.

I use a heart rate monitor to track my calories.

Thank you so much for the help. I would never have thought that I'm not eating enough. :smile:

I'm 5'2" and I weigh 236lbs. My goal weight is 160lbs. I just recently had my thyroid checked and it was negative.

I'm eating 1300 calories. My doctor told me I needed to lower my calories to 1300 and increase my activity. He said I need to burn more calories than I eat.
