Hello,

I am a 31 year old Mom of 3 living in Ontario, Canada. My newest edition is 6 months old and has started solid food, so it's made me feel comfortable to start trying to loose weight since I don't think it will affect my milk supply over much because he has other options now too. I suffer from Pernicious Anemia and have had it for my whole life, but it was only Just discovered this Pregnancy. I take my B12 shots every 3 days and am doing great with my treatment.
I gained weight starting in my late teens when my symptoms went crazy. 12 years later, I have energy again and fully intend to spend it burning off much of my fat stomach. I love the fact that the calorie counting is so simple on this site. I have never counted calories before because I was irritated by the thought that people will actually weigh a chicken breast and then do math!! Who wants to do math at dinner. This system is better because I sit down in the morning and make the meal plan for the day and can decide how much to put on my plate before I am hungry and irritated. It also means that my family knows what is for dinner before they leave for the day and can tell me if I will need to make more or less for them to eat. Men and boys get hungry. I think its working. Time will tell. I am hoping to loose 4 pounds a week, but any steady decline is okay by me. Stay healthy everybody!!

Vee~
