My husband and I recently had a baby girl! :) She was born January 24, 2007 (6 lbs and 19 1/2 inches). I am just really enjoying being a Mom and all the things that go along with it. I am absolutely in love with this little girl. During my pregnancy I gained 24 lbs. All of which was gone about 2 weeks after I delivered, but I can definitely tell you that my body looks nothing like it did before. Also, aside from the 24 pregnancy lbs, I was already about 40 lbs overweight. So now I'm back to working off that original weight that's been haunting me forever. In addition to being a Mom, I work full time. In my spare-time (which I have a lot less of these days!) I like to make jewelry, play on the computer, do digital scrapbooking, design announcements and invitations, watch tv, and spend time with my family and friends.

I am 25 years old and I recently got married and had my first child, Bella. I am 5'11", and pre-pregancy I was somewhere around 170. (My weight fluctuates about 5 lbs or so nearly everyday). I gained 60 lbs with my pregnancy reaching 230lbs on the see-food diet. The first 30 lbs melted off the first month. I thought with breastfeeding the rest of the weight would slowly but surely come off, but not yet. I have read that I should not actively start dieting until my daughter reaches six months, but I need to get in the right frame of mind to change my eating habits. My daughter just turned 4 months old and I have noticed my healty eating slowly decline. I know I have it in me to lose the weight. I actually quit smoking the day I found out I was pregnant. I know if I can quit that.... I can certainly have the will power to lose weight.

I am a 31 SAHM of a three month old son. I still have weight on me from having him. I have done Weight Watcher's in the past and did reach a lifetime goal in 2002 of 130lbs. I am now 170+ lbs. and need to lose the extra weight. I am a little bored and disappointed that it didn't last.

I am a new mom. I just had a baby boy three months ago. I have always been athletic and fairly thin, but I was told to gain a little weight in order to become pregnant and now that I have had my son, I have found myself at my largest weight ever. I need to lose 15 lbs. I want to feel good about myself again. There is only so long that you can get away with saying you "JUST" had a baby!!!!
