I am trying to lose weight before I try for baby number two. I have a 17 month old daughter but I really want her to have a brother or sister so I need to lose weight. I want to be a healthy size and have a healthy BMI for my second pregnancy. I have lost 21lbs so far but still have a long way to go :-)

I just want to be me just a lot less fat and toned and i will be happy :-) :happy:

You all look fantastic :-)

I'm in the same situation hun I have a 16 month old daughter and I really need to lose weight and get fit. Good luck hun :-)

At the end of the day yes he decided to take drugs and drink but a lot of us on here should know what it is like to overcome an addiction. I mean are we or or we not here to lose weight because some of us have an unhealthy emotional addiction to food? At the end of the day he was someones son and it was still a tragic…

I don't do cheat days because I don't deprive myself If I want a packet of crisps or an alcoholic drink I have it but I fit it into my daily calories. If I kept cheating myself I just wouldn't lose the weight :-)

Best Part of this post is Jensen Ackles! Thanks for posting! lol :-)

You look fantastic I need to start taking photos I have lost 19lbs now but I do not feel any different yet. I'm just too scared to take a photo the camera might break lol :-)

So does that mean I will have to move away from the sofa more than twice a day? if so its not for me thanks lol :-P

I remember before I was on a calorie controlled diet months ago I had a chinese the night before and weighed myself in the morning. I had put on a whole 2lbs in a night! but I soon realised it was just down to…

So far altogether I have lost a sperm whales brain and a Guinea Pig lol :-)

This was me a few months ago since then I have removed her from my life completely and now I am finally able to start loosing weight without any negative comments to bring me crashing back down again :-)

All I can say is be very careful how you go about this. I'm pretty sure your daughter is fully aware she is gaining weight and maybe she is depressed at the moment which is why she is emotionally eating. I was exactly the same I am now 26 and I have a 15 month old daughter who is my world. Since the age of 14 I have been…

Your right Potatoes have more B Complex Vitamins and antioxidant vitamins too as well as Vitamin K and minerals helping to convert your protein, fat and carbohydrates into Energy which is ideal for that energy boost you need before an exercise. I have to say I prefer a potato over a banana any day but my daughter loves…

Bananas are good for you they are full of potassium so they are great for having before exercise as they give you a great energy boost. Also they are a fantastic protein source for after exercise so can help to aid repair of muscle tissue :-)

You all look fantastic and your all inspirations for me! Love seeing these pics they keep me motivated. I have lost 14lbs since January which is not great I wasn't paying much attention to how many calories I was taking in and so I didn't have a loss for months. I have only just started MFP and I think it's fantastic…
