I just had my second daughter 3 weeks ago, i also have a 2 1/2 year old. I am actually down 7 pounds per my prepregnancy weight. I weighed 190 before i got pregnant and i weighed 183 after i left the hospital. That is one of my motivations...i had already started to loose. The second motivation is that my husband is a police officer and teaches the physical fitness program in the police academy. I don't want people to look at me and think...oh my that is the physical trainers wife....she is on the chubby side so i am putting everything into it this time. if anyone is in a similar place...let me know

I'm also a mom looking to lose weight. I have 3 children and have gained 50-60 lbs. with each pregnancy. My oldest is 12, then 6, & the youngest is almost 3. It seems that it takes me 3 years to lose what I had gained each time! It's incredibly difficult! I am not having anymore children, so I decided I better get on with it and lose the weight already! I've been doing Weight Watchers at home on my own since the beginning of the year. I guess I'm looking for added support.

Congrats on your little newborn! If I were you, I would take it easy, you just had her! I guess it's never too early to change eating habits, though. Good luck on your goals! Enjoy her while she's tiny!

and looking to drop the extra weight I gained and never lost from my older two children. lol

My newest baby will be 3 weeks old on Monday and while I've already lost the weight I gained this time, I started off on the heavy side and would really like to drop that weight. This is our last baby and I'm ready to be skinny and sexy again. I'd love to buddy up with you!

My problem is that I have had two pregnancies back to back. I got preggo with my son, Dylan and then he was stillborn at 21 weeks. The doctor told us to try again right away. Well I was depressed and so that did not help me lose any of the weight before I got preggo again. I got preggo 3 months later. Then with that preg, I had a cerclage and was put on bedrest. I only gained 25 pounds with that preg, which i was totally proud of since I could not be mobile at all.
But now I feel awful and need to lose the weight to make myself feel better physically. Plus I do have some motivation. It is not the best, but it is motivation just the same.
My hubbies ex girlfriend is comin to bring thier daughter for her summer visit. She is on the heavy side and so I want to lose weight so that I look darn good! I know, bad motivation, but I cant help that. I do still want to do it for myself. So I figure it is ok.
I would love to buddy up with someone. Maybe keep track of each other, even maybe exchange emails. Someone to email progress to and to help each other.
Hugs, nikki
