I am 31 years old and I have one daughter. I gained 70 lbs while pregnant with her but was able to lose most of it. Unfortunately I had a tumor removed and then massive infection and other complications from the surgery. The docs put me on pain meds that made me feel tired and caused weight gain and then I got depressed because of a death in my family. I am finally coming off all my medications but I gained all my pregnancy weight back the past 2 years. I am a big time emotional eater. I am dedicated to being a better mother though and losing weight and having more energy will help me to do that. I want to lose at least 60 pounds - preferably by November. I hope that is possible. If not I will be patient and just be happy to be feeling better and getting out exercising.
