Default Hello from kansas

Hello I'm Chelsea a 23 year old mother of two young children. I have always been overweight in high school I topped out at 175 which I was ok with but not thrilled with. After having my first child I only gained 25 lbs and lost it within 5 months, but after my second child was born I had gained 50 lbs and I was not able to lose it. I have continued to gain weight since then. I have used Weight Watchers and lost 16 lbs. It has been a roller coaster with my weight since then. I also have depression which also contributes to my weight...I'm a binge eater as well. I am hoping to give and get support from fellow members on here. Well that about sums it up for me. Thanks for reading

Welcome Chelsea! It can be hard to lose baby weight--heck, I'm still losing from when I had my twins--and they're five and a half! I also have a six month old, so everything I had lost, I had to lose again. Are you on any medication for your depression? I know mine makes a world of difference. You'll get plenty of support here at 3FC--there are subforums for all of the things you mentioned. Check them out and join in!
