Congrats on getting started! I'm with you on the baby weight. I lost 50 pounds and had about 25-30 left to lose, then I got pregnant and *gulp* gained ALL of it back, plus a few extra for good measure.
So now they're coming back off, this time for good.
Your "diet" plan sounds just like mine. Nothing really formal yet, just much healthier choices and portions. And we are in the same area, sounds like we have a lot in common!
Good luck and keep us updated!
