hi - my name is Melissa and I am 35 years old. I am really excited to find this forum since I need all the help that I can get. I have currently lost 13.5 pounds - and have 47 pounds to go to get to my goal weight. I have a 9 month old son who I am still bfeeding so the weight loss is slow - and that is fine. I need to make this more of a life change so that I learn how to keep this weight OFF after I lose it. I also have a 7 year old son. I am looking forward to getting to know you girls!

Glad to have you with us! Congrats on your progress too far, keep up the good work! BF'ing is actually supposed to help with weight loss. Didn't work for me, but I guess it also doesn't help when you're shoving the wrong food down your throat to begin with.
