Hello everyone....I just joined the site today.

My name is Mindee, and I will be 22 next month. I am married and we have a three month old son.

I was at my highest weight ever in my life four days before I had my son. I hate to admit it, but I had let myself go all the way up to 285lbs. Two weeks after having him, I jumped on the scale and was about 240ish. But since then I have been flucutaing between 247 and 250. I am hoping to get down to 120 pounds.

I have been talking walks, doing sit ups, leg lifts, lifting weights. But this past Sunday, I kicked up another notch so to speak. I had my hubby bring in the exercise bike that we have had sitting in the garage since we moved in. So far I have pedaled almost 27 miles. (And I have done it on Sunday for about 4 minutes to get a feel for it. And then Tuesday, Wednesday and today, inching it up so I can really feel the burn.)

From what I have seen so far this looks like an awesome forum. I am hoping to stay on here throughout my weight loss journey.

Marti~ Thanks for the welcome! I will be on here more later. A friend of ours is coming over and since she is getting married in 9 months and only has the church and the reception hall booked, we are going to help her out!

Thanks again!

(BTW, it seems to be a goal to get down to my slimmer self by the wedding. And also so that the next time we get pregnant, I won't have as many issues as I did with Brandon. I was told that I had gestational diabetes with him and that he was going to be 7lbs. 10oz. When he was born, he came out at 6lbs. 13oz.)
