Talking Introducing....

Hey everyone!
My name is Amy. I am 20 years old. Married to my wonderful husband, Adam. We had a daughter, Addyson, on October 15th, 2008.
I gained approx. 50lbs with my pregnancy. But had lost around 30lbs by the next week. I retained water like no other. It was insane.
My current weight is 189.5lbs. My pre-pregnancy weight was around 166lbs. I would like to get down to 139. Which would *just* make me at an average BMI. Even if I get to 145lbs I would be happy...but I have GOT to do something.
I am currently wearing a women's size 16 jean. My waist is 38".

I am very motivated and began following the Weight Watchers plan yesterday (01/08/2009).

Thank you all for "listening" and I hope to get to know all of you throughout this journey!!!

I'm a fellow WW member and have found great success so I hope you do, too. As midwife mentioned, there's a WW section. There's also a 20-something's section.

Post anywhere you're comfortable! Best of success!
