Thanks everyone! We are having a boy, its our first and we're both really excited. Hopefully between all the new activity and breastfeeding the weight I gained from the pregnancy shouldn't be too hard to work off.
20 something club?

I wish our summer would hurry up and get here. I hate cold weather. I can relate to getting in shape for summer when summer is already here, lol. I started last year in June, in hopes of getting in shape for this summer. It sucks being fat when all you want to do is wear skimpy clothing to get out of the heat.
I recommend starting a diary in the diary section. It's a great way to make some contacts here and for people to get to know you. And it helps you stick to your goals when people are expecting you to post!

I kinda used to look forward to the cold weather so I could hide my chubbyness, haha. Now that I'm losing weight, I'm looking forward to the nice, warm weather
definitely beats being so cold all the time.

lol, it's ironic because not long after I posted I went outside and it's 70 degrees today! Beautiful day. Guess I can't complain too much about the cold when I live in southern Louisiana!

lol. That last one is a bit of a stretch, but it's scary how much we have in common as regards to our age, current weight, and goals.
I WILL ACCEPT YOUR CHALLENGE!
I could use the extra motivation. I'm on a dance group that dances/marches in the Mardi Gras parades, and our first parade is Feb 20th. I'd love to lose a few more pounds before then!
Hey guys!
I am in the 20 something range as well and trying to lose weight. I actually started doing this about a month ago when I discovered some weightloss vlogs on youtube that just reminded me of how many people out there are in the same position as me. I have lost about 4lbs or so in the last month so my motivation is really high right now which is so so awesome! I totally understand from some of the earlier posts about dressing for warm weather and wearing shorts. I have never worn a bikini in my life because I just never felt confident about the way I looked and even at my lowest weight (around 125-130) so I just want to get that confidence back. I hope it goes well for all of us!!

I was just reading a few pages back, and there was some discussion of wearing only long pants and long-sleeved shirts because of feeling that the arms/legs aren't nice enough to show. I remember i used to ONLY wear jeans, even in the scorching summer sun (and i live in ontario.. lol) up to like 28 degrees Celcius, which is like 80 Fahrenheit. I used to sweat sooo much, and it was uncomfortable, all because i hate my legs. lol
I have stopped since. I wear shorts now. but i remember the naked feeling when i was wearing shorts, not being used to it. i guess i am just trying to post, telling how it is not fair that we have to sweat and be uncomfortable just because we are already uncomfortable in our skin. i understand it, and i think that it needs to change. who cares if you have a chunky thigh or calf (i actually have the biggest calves. i can't find nice knee-high boots that will zip over my calves lol). i am SURE that it is not as bad as you may think... and even if it is, who cares?? why should you have to be sweaty and uncomfortable in heavy clothes in the middle of the summer heat just cause you may have some extra pounds?
(i hope that this came off right. lol i meant only the kindest of words... almost like a motivational pep talk haha)
