New needing lots of support.
 

Hi all my name is Ally and I'm 23. I am honestly not sure where to start so I guess I'll tell you a little bit about me. I am a stay at home mom to one beautiful little boy who is 15 months old. I have been married to my wonderful husband who is 34 for almost 4 and a half years now.
I have always been someone who has had to work to be thin and in shape. When I got pregnant with my son I had a hard pregnancy and I was on bed rest quite a bit. So of course I gained weight like crazy. After he was born I swore up and down I would lose it in no time. Well here we are 15 months later and I have only lost 7 lbs total of what I need too. I am honestly not sure what my start weight is (I will be weighing myself tomorrow) but I know I have a lot to lose.
I am so great about feeding my son well lots of healthy foods, no sugar, I make all his juice in my juicer. To date he has never has any kind of non-natural sugar or fast food of any kind. So why is it so hard to do this for myself? :( My husband (who I might add has the body of a Calvin Klein model) doesn't understand what I am going through at all. :( He is wonderful and such a sweetheart. He tells me all the time I am beautiful and perfect and he is more in love with me now then ever. :cloud9: But he doesn't have to live in my body, KWIM? I am not happy with it and I don't feel pretty at all and I know I need to be a lot healthier.
So that is me a nut shell. I hope know one minds me joining and that I can get lots of support and advice here. Hope to get know everyone.

Welcome little
Sometimes husbands can't really understand especially when they don't have any weight issues. But the board here is a great support group so come often!

I totally understand you about feeding your baby healthy. I do the same with my kids and yet have had difficulty doing it for myself but I am turning over a new leaf and now I eat as much salad and veggies as I make them eat!!
