Hey everyone! Just wanted to pop in and say 'hi!'
I wish I would've found this board months ago! I started my "diet" last November, after having my third child in late September. I was yo-yo-ing from then until the first of the year. January 1st came, and I was so unhappy with myself and my body image. I had gained 69 pounds with my last pregnancy (twin pregnancy, only one survived). It was the most weight I had gained with all three kids.
So as many of us do, I decided to get my body back as my new year's resolution. I'm happy to report that I did that in just a matter of 3 months!! My goal was to be back to my prepregnancy weight (147 pounds) by our trip to Arizona this past March. Even though I was "back to my old self", I still wasn't happy with my image. So I decided to continue working out.
I'm happy to report that I have just one pound to go until my goal weight of 135. My deadline for that is this Saturday, July 1st....which also happens to be my 30th birthday. I guess you could say that turning 30 also helped motivate me!!! So I'm kinda nervous about my weigh in date on Friday (I weigh myself weekly at home).
I look forward to meeting new friends!!
