Hi there!

My name is Angela, I am a 23 year old female from Ontario, Canada. I am taking the big plunge to lose about 50 lbs. I had a baby boy 18 months ago on March 14th, 2006 and I packed on a good 80 lbs with the pregnancy. I was hoping by that point that when he came out he would weigh atleast 50 lbs of that LOL.. just kidding ;)

Anyways, I have tried on one seperate occasion to lose the baby weight, succeeded a bit and then failed. At my heaviest (after I gave birth) I was 210 lbs. I was 130 when I got pregnant. YIKES!!!
I lost 20 lbs the first time around and then started again 4 days ago at 191 lbs.


So I am trying again, and am very serious about it. I have been excercising and dieting now for about 4 days and I have already lost 5 lbs!! (Must be water weight, but oh well that excites me!) I am currently 185.5 and my goal is to first of all lose atleast 50 lbs to get me to 135 lbs again.

I look forward to speaking with you all!

Angela: Welcome to the board, I hope you find it a useful resource. I feel your pain -- I gained a lot with my last 2 pregnancies and decided it was way past time to do something about it, and so here I am. You might want to create a diary/journal so you can chart your progress and others can post to cheer you on. It helps :)
 
Thanks guys for the warm welcome :) Pregnancy is a challenge in itself, and then I decided to take that as a EAT WHATEVER YOU WANT excuse.. LOL!! Now Im paying for it! :)

Steve, I like your signature quote. Very inspirational :)
