  • I joined after seeing a lot of people's tickers on my other message board. I am a 30 year old mom of a 17 month old. I gained 10 lbs prior to getting preggo (I call that my "talking about getting pregnant" weight) and then I gained 48 lbs while pregnant. I have lost VERY slowly and keep losing motivation. At the beginning of November I FINALLY lost the 48 lbs, but I still have 10+ to go...plus the fact I keep gaining a few lbs back here and there. I really want to lose this weight before we start thinking about another child. I feel like if I get pregnant again I will never lose this weight and will just keep packing it on with each child.

    Problems: I am a sugar-aholic. I start eating sugary food with breakfast. I try so very hard to eat healthy and follow Dr. Fuhrman's 'Eat to Live' diet which pretty much gives up dairy, sugar, most meats, etc. I do pretty good except for the sugar part. It's my downfall.

    Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself and say that I can't wait to get to know you all and I hope I can provide you with the support you need as well!

    Thanks!
    Andrea
