Hi! I'm new to this site, looking to lose 35 pounds and trying by counting calories. Would love any suggestions or advice. I am a 28 year old mother of 2 ( 2 and 4 years old) and I take care of my kids full-time and also work full-time from home for a Gyn/oncology practice. As you can imagine, I have very little "me time." I gained 70 pounds with the first baby and 50 with the 2nd and have lost a few times only to gain it back. I also suffer from what the doctors believe, at this point, to be fibromyalgia. Would love to hear how you all are shedding those unwanted pounds!
