I am so excited as i am REALLY motivated about loosing some weight and getting and then keeping fit.
I'm not doing it for me or for my DP i'm doing it for my girls, i WILL NOT be that mother (my mother, i don't mean to offend anyone else) that uses her weight as an excuse to not go swimming, play netball with them or take them for a walk.

It all started as i have lost 10+kg after the birth of DD2 and i want to loose some more and keep it all off.

3wks after birth i was down to:
Weight: 96.3kg (according to shopping centre scales)
Height: Roughly 5ft 10
BMI: 31 = obese

So i have joined the weight loss support group on here, i am making more of an effort to eat smaller more regular meals with DD1 all day (we eat lots of fruit and drink heaps of water anyway), we are planning to walk to the letterbox and back every day (when the weather permits ie not 37 or 15 and raining ) and i am going to go for walk with 1 or 2 of the girls from MG once a week.

But the thing i am excited about and looking forward to is getting help from a friend at mothers group.. she is a naturopath and until now i hadn't even thought of asking for her help, we have LOTS of issues in our family like asthma, eczema, parkinsons, diabetes and loosing weight will help me with some of these.
Today she came over and she's going to get me some information sheets from work, she's also told me to get a referral for bloods when i have my 6wk check-up and then we can look at things more related to me and my body... i am so excited.

We are going to check my Iron, Vit D as i was deficient while PG with DD2 .. what else is there that i should prob check? she said thats fine for now but is there anything else?

Sorry this is so long.. i am so excited for once i am actually making plans and trying to stick with it... might even change my ticker to a weight loss one...
