I am here because I am trying to lose the weight that came with having two babies in 27 months! I have 4 children, all boys ages 10, 7, 20 months and almost 2 months. I have struggled with my weight all my life and this is no different, but I am determined to get back to my pre-DH weight or better. I look forward to getting to know you all and supporting you on your journeys as well!
I am 4 pounds into my first 10 pound goal. We'll see if I want to lose more when I reach my final goal of 46 pounds off.

I am new around here also. My name is Eleny and I have 3 dc's, dd18, ds17, and ds2.5.
I have struggled with my weight since having kids, have been at a low weight and then gained and then loss again, then gained again after the youngest. I am now getting serious about getting Healthy more then been a certain size.
Thanks girls - I am super excited to have found this site.
I am still shopping for what works eating wise - I am breastfeeding so counting/watching calories and eating healthy is probably the only option at this point. I don't want to do anything that might harm my ability to breastfeed. I have started doing walk away the pounds (it's on my comcast OnDemand) - the two mile walk every other day and some different toning videos on days I don't walk. I am going to try to start the pilates soon. I also drink a ton of water(over 90 ounces), but can't seem to give up my coffee. Plus, well chasing after my toddler is always good cardio! LOL
Eating is my weak point- I am am emotional eater, and let's face it, post partum hormones can take you for a spin, for sure. I also eat when I am bored, I "sample" when I am cooking, I eat like crap and really need help learning to eat better
yet another newbie !
Congrats on the newest edition
