3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community - New to forum and new to healthy eating and exercise

Hi All, Just wanted to introduce myself as I am new.. I'm from the Gold Coast in Australia. I had my first baby 2 years ago and my second only 10 months ago. I was very underweight (43kg) when I first fell pregnant at 23 so I gained a healthy amount of weight (+16kg, 59kg) which I was fine with and was content on just toning up. When I fell pregnant with our second baby so soon after the first, I wasn't as toned as I would have liked to have been and found I 'indulged' way too much during the pregnancy. After a c-section, I wasn't able to do much straight away and was trying to mentally prepare myself for a lifestyle change. 10 months later and more weight gained, I'm finally doing something!! :) I will weigh myself in the next couple of days to see where I'm at. I will be doing the next grocery shop in 2 days and I have started off small by just cutting out all the bad stuff and going for healthier meals and smaller portions and NO COCA-COLA.. my biggest addiction. I am a smoker and am currently on Champix to help quit. Champix is horrible. It makes you feel nauseous and tired. But it's worth it if I can stick with it.

Sorry for the novel ;) I look forward to reading about your weight loss and/or lifestyle change!
