Hi I am new to this whole forum thing, but I am at my ropes end and will try anything to help keep me on track! I am 25 and a mommy to two. I have a daughter who is just over 2 years old and my son just turned 5 months old. Having babies this close together does not help with the weight issue thats for sure! So I have set a goal for my self and I hope to get there by my sons first birthday!

Woohoo!

Congrats on your weight loss so far and welcome!
I'm 22 years old and have a just turned 2-year old and I'm losing weight in preparation for ttc #2

I don't know what program you're doing, but ***********.com is helpful for tracking calories,exercise, etc.. I am using weight watchers right now and it's working well for me.

For exercise right now I either a.) exercise while Becca is napping b.) exercise after I put her to bed in the evening or c.) put a gate up in front of my door and exercise while she watches cartoons... I hate sticking her in front of the tv but I know that she'll give me a half hour of exercise if I let her watch Winnie the Pooh

I don't know where you're located but if it's warm enough outside you might consider taking the kids for a walk (if you have a stroller for 2 or if you have a baby carrier), we've been snowed in since November so I like it better in the house
