  • I would say that you know your body better than anyone...even your doctor. I started walking around 3 weeks postpartum, but I've never been a jogger so I can't really give advice on that. But I was like you...I was starting to get stir crazy! I didn't start REALLY working out until 12 weeks postpartum though, because that…
  • This sounds interesting... I am in!
  • I have the same problem!!! Once I get to the point where I see results, I am quick to revert to my old ways, thinking that I will miraculously be able to "maintain" my weight. So far the app is working well for me, because I get to see everyone else's progress and I feel more accountable too. Best of success to you! If you…
  • Hello! My weight loss goals are similar to yours. I gained 42 pounds during my pregnancy and my weight was up to 177. My pre-pregnancy weight was about 135 but I'm hoping to go down to 125. I'm actually only 15 pounds away now, so I'm farther along in this journey than you, but I'd be happy to cheer you on and keep you…
  • Taking the first step is always the hardest, so congrats on that! I wish you the best of success in your weight loss endeavor...you can do it! :)
  • Hi Stacy! First of all, congratuations on your new baby girl! I had a baby girl 3 months ago myself, and I'm working on getting my body back too :) I would love to help support you. Sending the request right now :)
  • Hi Ladies! I am a new mommy too! My baby girl is 3 months old. I told myself that once I finished maternity leave I would focus on losing the baby weight...so for the last 2 weeks I have and I've lost 6 pounds already! I am only 6 pounds away from my pre-baby weight now, but I'd like to lose another 10 on top of that. I'd…
  • Hi there! I just had my baby 3 months ago and I'm trying to get my body back too! I actually only have 6 pounds left to lose before I hit my pre-baby weight, but I'm hoping to lose another 15 pounds on top of that! Some advice: Being only 1 month postnatal, I would be careful about doing anything too extreme with your diet…
  • Hi Dawn! I'm Sara :) I just had a baby 3 months ago and I'm working hard to lose the excess weight too. I gained over 40 pounds during the pregnancy. Now I am only about 6 pounds away from my starting weight but I'm trying to lose a bit more on top of that. MFP has helped me stay on track! We can do this!!! I can totally…
  • Hi there. I can definitely relate to your struggle. I tend to binge eat as well, particularly when I do not keep myself busy. I have been on maternity leave for the past 12 weeks, spending a lot of time sitting on the couch nursing my baby and watching tv... I want to get my body back! Like you, I am 145 pounds, hoping to…
  • Yep, that is my angel! She is definitely my motivation to stay healthy. I will need all my strength to keep up with her. Thanks for adding me as your friend!
