Hello there, I'm trying to lose weight I gained during my first pregnancy. I would like to slim down quite a bit before doing it again. We're talking about having a second, and soon I'm going to add you as a buddy!

I so understand. My son will be 1 year old next week and I'm still trying to shake nearly 30 lbs after my pregnancy. I'm 5'2" and linger at about 153 lbs. I weighed 125ish pre-pregancy. It is really hard to lose weight!! I have a new respect for people who have been dealing with weight issues for a long time. I need help getting motivated with exercise too. My husband is awesome but he doesn't have a super drive to get healthier ( he could lose a few pounds, he was "pregnant" too and he ate the chocolate doughnuts to prove it!). Our diet is improved, but it's true temptation is everywhere, especially when you live with a man who like to deep fry way too many things. I feel like with some more support and encouragement I could do so much better. Let's be buddies and get back in shape!!

Hello other new mommies, I am so excited and hopeful about joining this website. Learning to control my eating habits throughout my pregnancy became a problem. My sweet tooth was well out of control :P. The food journal, and seeing everything I take in, and what it adds up too, has been eye-opening so far. I was 128 lbs when I got pregnant, topped out at around 175 lbs, and since my son's birth back in February '07 I have lingered at 150 lbs (give or take a couple, eh hem). I also had to recuperate from a painful c-section. I was extremely active before my pregnancy. I worked out quite a bit. Once I was pregnant I just stopped. I couldn't regret that more now. I broke down a few months ago, after being inundated with endless info-mercials, and bought the Slim in Six exercise program. It seems fantastic, now if I only had time to do it!! My son will take off walking any minute now, and I am back to work full time. I hope some combo of moderate exercise and a more controlled diet works. I know I just have to be dedicated and patient. I actually bought some new jogging pants today to help me get more motivated!!
