Hey girls I am 30 turning 31 with three young children. The youngest is turning two on thursday. I was always very thin and could eat anything. After having my first child I was right back to being skinny. Then almost three years later baby two I was left with five pounds. Now after having my son I have maybe twenty pounds that I want to get rid of. I am a very busy person and always doing something which is part of the problem. I eat a bit late at times and I know that is a no-no. It's also hard to lose weight and eat right because of the goodies and things that the kids want to eat. I started out at a size four on a bad day and now am about a size eight or so. I am currently 5 ft 6 inches or so and about 145 lbs. I need help changing how I do things and losing weight. I would appreciate any help and cheering on I can get. Ideally I would like to get back to 125 lbs or so. The weather is getting better so I will be trying to take that nice afternoon walk with my kids like I usually do.
I think the biggest thing is realizing that I have to watch what I eat now. Plus I do know that as you get older and have more children your metabolism slows down more. I am not sure but a few people have told me that post tubal ligation you can put on some weight. I had my tubes tied in November of 05 and I can say that I probably have about five pounds after that as well.
Help Please....
