Hello!!! I am trying to become a healthier person for my children. I have always been a bigger girl but since I had my 4th child my weight has gone out of control. I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism while pregnant as well as Gestational Diabetes. I was told to D/C all my meds after her birth and so I did. I stopped nursing her 3 weeks ago and have gained 24 pounds since then!!!!!!!! I had my doctor test me and found out I have severe Hypothyroidism. I just started taking my medication and hope that it helps with my weight loss a little bit. I am glad that I was able to figure out what was hindering my weightloss and am excited to move forward. I have great family support but outside support is always helpful. I look forward to becoming healthier and thinner and hope to have input from everyone with any and all suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Welcome! I am new too. We both have a long worthwhile road ahead of us. We can do this. We have a common motivation, our kids. Hang in here with me!

I am haning in there for the long hall!!! Need anything let me know.
