Introducing....

  • Hey everyone!
    My name is Amy. I am 20 years old. Married to my wonderful husband, Adam. We had a daughter, Addyson, on October 15th, 2008.
    I gained approx. 50lbs with my pregnancy. But had lost around 30lbs by the next week. I retained water like no other. It was insane.
    My current weight is 189.5lbs. My pre-pregnancy weight was around 166lbs. I would like to get down to 139. Which would *just* make me at an average BMI. Even if I get to 145lbs I would be happy...but I have GOT to do something.
    I am currently wearing a women's size 16 jean. My waist is 38".

    I am very motivated and began following the Weight Watchers plan yesterday (01/08/2009).

    Thank you all for "listening" and I hope to get to know all of you throughout this journey!!!
  • Welcome Amy! Congrats on your baby!! How fun!

    We have a Weight Watchers thread with many gurus who share great tips and support. We also have a 20 something forum. Feel free to look around and jump in to any converstations that interest you.
