Glad for the baby, hate the weight.

  • The title pretty much says it all. I started out at 130-135 before I got pregnant, and was up to 184 by the time I delivered. granted, I had a 10lb healthy, bouncing, baby boy, but there was no real excuse for sitting on the couch, watching bad TV and eating Krispy Kreams whenever the mood struck me. I'm at around 160 now, and my boy is 4 months old. I'm still wearing most of my second trimester pregnancy clothes, and I practically live in stretch yoga pants and giant hoodies and t-shirts.

    SO, I'm ready to do this. Bring it on, the calorie counting, daily workouts, whatever. If there are any Raleigh girls on here who would like to be support buddies, I'd be totally grateful. Anyway, that's me in a nutshell. Looking forward to getting to know everyone on here!
  • Cute baby!!

  • What a precious little fella you have there! Congrats. I'm not in Raleigh, but I'm in Monroe, NC. I have family in Raleigh and I usually come there in August for concerts. This is a great place for you to come and read and get started on your journey. I myself am new here as well and cannot get enough of this place. I also joined WW online and really like it too. The more you read here, you should be able to find what will work for you. Good luck and keep in touch!
