Congrats! To you both for starting on a weight loss plan so soon after having your babies. I wish I hadn’t waited so long to start this myself. My son is now a year old, but because of breastfeeding I wasn’t able to start a real diet plan without compromising my milk supply and its quality. But I’m here now and ready to do this. I have about 100 lbs to lose and determined to do it one pound at a time, failing is not an option. If you ever need to talk or just a little encouragement I’m here or send me a message.

Hey there. Im in the same boat as you. I have 20 pounds left from my pregnancy that Im dying to get off so I can fit my prebaby clothes. After that my goal is about another 80 pounds... I would love to buddy up with you and we can do this together! I am actually breastfeeding, up until tomorrow. Then Im going to start on slimfast on monday. So let me know if youd like to buddy up!!

Hello!  I have a 7, 5, and just 2 year old, not to mention a 4-week old!  I am exhausted, but also ready to get the old me back.  I have used slim-fast successfully in the past with the last 2 children to lose the weight I put on, but I always did it with a buddy...would love to have that support again.  My ideal weight loss in about 43 lbs...my realistic is just the 20ish I have left from pregnancy.  I am going to try to work out...my husband has a fitness plan that he wants me to do with him...not sure if I am up for it.  Loved walking last summer, but he coaches basketball and teaches drivers ed, so he is not home much in the summer, and I cannot push two strollers and the other two just slow me down.  Not to mention that I want a half-hour of "me" time once in a while.  It seems harder to come by these days.  My husband and I are both teachers, and I will go back to work in the fall...can't afford not to.  My youngest was born on 6-25-2009.  Would love to hear from somebody!
