Post Baby Weight
Hey all! I have just given birth to a beautiful little girl, and I have a 21 month old son. I'm trying to eat clean and healthy as much as possible to try to kick start the baby weight loss.

Weekly Weigh In
I've found the best way to keep myself on track is to share my weight publicly! I usually weigh in on Friday morning, that way I can get my head where it needs to be for the weekend which is when I usually eat the worst. Starting weight: 239 lbs Goal weight: 190 lbs 10/21/14: 213 lbs

Nutritional Goals & Values
So, I was "custom" setting up my food goals, and I realized I wasn't entirely sure what to set some of the stuff at! So I did some research in an "eating for pregnancy" book I have and here's what I set mine for: Protein - 20% (which amounted to around 75 grams, book recommends 71) Carbs - 50% (188 grams, book recommends…

Overweight, losing during pregnancy
Hey all! Pregnant with #2, due in October. A little background: I've had problems with being overweight most of my life. I'm 5'10", and I was around 170 for most of my high school/college days.
