Back with 2 under 2!
I joined this group over a year ago to help get the pounds off after the birth of my daughter. I pretty much stopped participating when I got pregnant again! My newest baby boy is 3 months old. My babies are 11 months apart, so basically I've been pregnant for 2 years straight! I'm not sure what that does to my body but we…

New to Group!
Hello! 6 weeks ago I gave birth to a gorgeous baby girl. The day I checked in to the hospital I weighed 174. 6 weeks later I weigh 144 just 4 lbs over my pre-pregnancy weight. Now my goal is to start up where I left off, getting from 140 to 125 (I am 5' 0") by May 2015. I'm going to need a lot of encouragement especially…

Living with Gestational Diabetes
It has been about 3 weeks since the docs told me I had gestational diabetes (GD). At first I was very upset and worried, but after talking with the dietician and my doctors I feel much better. The dietician told me to keep my carbs around 30g per main meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner. This has been much harder than I thought…

Finally working on the last 20lbs
In late 2009 I was a maid of honor. When I got the wedding pictures I could not believe how huge I was! At that time I was 5'0" and weighed 180lbs. I immediately joined Weight Watchers, over the course of 16 months I lost 40 lbs. I lost another 10 over the course of 8-10 months. Then I started a new job in 2011 that keeps…

What time of day do you weigh yourself?
I was having a discussion with my friends and they told me I was weighing myself "wrong". I weigh myself at the end of the day before going to bed rather than on a empty stomach like they do. I figure the only time my stomach is empty is when I wake up so weighing in at that time is not my "true weight". Am I weighing…

New to the Group
Hi! I'm new to the group. I'm looking at find friends on MFP with similar goals. I would like to get this last bit of belly fat off at the same time tone up and put on some awesome muscle. My biggest challenge is I am a road warrior so I travel and sleep in hotels every week. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in my work…
