Hello everyone. I'm so glad I found this site! It really gives me the encouragement to lose all this weight I gained.

So, I'm 21 years old. I'm from Croatia so English is not my maternal language. I'm married to the greatest husband and we have the cutest little son (he's now 2months old).

I started gaining weight when I met my husband (almost 3 yeas ago). We ate lots of junk food and started getting fat. Also I went to collage and din't know how to cook and ate really unhealthy foods, didn't walk but used public transportation instead.

I weighted 60kg (132 lbs) when I got to collage and gained around 5kg (11 lbs) in first 2 years. After that I got pregnant and gained 23kg (50.7 lbs) ! I lost 13kg (28.6 lbs) after I gave birth. So not only that I have all that weight to lose but I also got stretchmarks all over my body and my self esteem is really low.

I now weight 75kg (165.3 lbs), my goal weight is 58kg (127.8 lbs) which is my high school weight.

A few days ago I started riding an exercise bike. I'm planning on doing it every day or at least 5days a week. I'm riding it for 60minutes around 22-24 km/h (12,42 mph). I am also trying to watch my calories and not to ear sweets (as much as I can) or if I really have a craving I only take a small amount.
Also i'll try to weight in only every 2 weeks!


Wish me luck! :D


Question: how to put a ticker in the signature. I can't find the signature field in my profile (I've already made a ticker). Can someone please help me :?:

Hi there, and :wel3fc:

Unfortunately, due to issues with spammers, we require that members be registered for at least 20 days, and have posted at least 20 times, before enabling signature options. The good thing, of course, is that by then, you'll have some progress to track!

Anyway, look around, jump in, and get to posting. Can't wait to get to know you better!

Hi and welcome to 3FC.

Good luck with your goals.

Hugs
Michelle

Thank you!

Your success stories are incredible!

Welcome. we are glad you are here. Please keep us updated

I sure will! :carrot:

I'm now going to take my 'before' picture. I barely have 5 photos altogether since the birth of my son and I have to have something to compare myself to when the progress starts showing.

It's kind of sad that I now have a cute little son but almost no pictures with him. I just hate seeing myself on the photos.
