I've always been a big person, ever since i was a teenager. I finally lost the weight after taking a paper route job with my stepdad back in june of 2005. I lost 2-3 pant sizes and ended up at a size 18 in jeans, which was great for me, i loved it. I met my husband Steve in September. I got married in December lol. I gained weight and ended up at a size 20-22 in jeans. I was on a diet when i found out i was pregnant with our first child. Our daughter Keira, she's 3 months now, and she'll be 4 months December 27th. She was born on August 27th. I had to have a c-section, so now i still have that flab, if anyone who had a c-section knows, it sucks. I know it's only been 3 months but i want to lose weight so bad! I only lost 20-25 pounds from having keira, and before getting pregnant i was 250. I gained 30 pounds, and then had high blood pressure which made me bloat bad and i was at 296 at my last weigh-in, the weekend before i was induced. I get so mad at my body! I want to lose weight, and i hope to get some encouraging thoughts from you ladies as i begin the journey of getting myself back!
