Hey mamas! I have decided to get serious about this weight thing! I would love to have some other mamas to talk to, I know it will keep me motivated. I love the buddy system. I am a stay at home mama to three crazy kids! I am always doing something, and we walk daily, but I really like food! LOL! I would love to be a little thinner before Christmas, just to feel a little better in my clothes ya know. I probably need to lose 15-20 lbs to be on the chart, but who's countin, right? I have a blog where I share my sewing/craft projects, and stories about my everyday life with my babies. I would love for you to have a look The Handmade Dress Any other bloggers out there? Nice to meet all you lovely mamas, hope to chat soon.

Hi!

Great decision to get serious about losing weight. Are you counting calories? I found that as soon as I had my baby I went back to my old habits and did not eat enough calories to support weight loss. I saw in another post that you gained 75lbs while preggers, I gained 60 and I was no where near bed rest! My overall weight loss goal is 120-125 and I am currently 145. My Chirstmas goal is 140.

Anywho...I will check out your blog when I have more time, I am on my way out the door.

If you IM, mine is Fligurl2021 on yahoo messenger.

That wasn't me, but I am glad to finally chat with someone! I gained 13 lbs with my first and 20 lbs with my other two. Pregnancy is not my problem, I gain when I am nursing because I stay soooooo hungry!!! I have been walking everyday and watching what I eat. I am not so good at counting calories, it stresses me out and I end up giving up. I do better to just watch what I eat, but it is so hard! I have done pretty good today, I hope I can hold out for a while, I burn out pretty quick!!
