I've been seeing a counselor for a while now, and I've also been battling with postpartum depression…

You can do it 👍🏽👍🏽

Good for u. If u don't mind me asking why wait til August 1@kcamps

good for you! you can do anything and everything!

@cynmoli, thanks girl! @txyogagirl thank you! But I'm waiting only because I want to do as much research as I possibly can! I've never done anything like this, I don't know how to workout correctly, I don't know what supplements are necessary, and what foods I should and shouldn't eat. So I told myself that I'm going to do research and then August 1st is my start date :)

@maybaby2016, thank you 😊

Ok great@kcamps u don't have to take my advise but I would like to give it bc it's the most simple thing ever and to many people make it harder than what it is. One rule u should live by "if u can't grow it or kill it don't eat it" that's it pretty simple obviously there are some moderation and thought to put into it like don't eat one pound of bacon etc u get the idea. Another thing to think about is when somebody tell u read labels my thought to that is ur food shouldn't have labels period if it has a label and ingredient list stay away from it. Scroll through my post I hope u find them encouraging. I'm happy to help.

@txyogagirl, that's a good way to look at it! And I'm trying to stick to just like fruits, vegetables, grains, and protein. So the whole thing on it having a label, totally agree on! I've been thinking of doing the paleo diet for so long but I don't want to over do myself in the beginning. I'll probably work up to that eventually. But thank you for the advice, I'll definitely use that :)

@kcamps, I thought paleo excluded grains and potatoes? What do I know about fad diets I just go by the one motto no label it's good but I grew up on a farm and never seen labels on food so that's what Im used too.

Your not alone. I've gained 70-80lbs throughout this year and since I had my son in Feb. Also I'm disabled with foot drop and left side weakness due to a operation I had in 2014 but anyhow I put on so much weight. I try the whole diet thing an seriously can't follow through with it because I lack self discipline. But I'd like a partner that can do this with and motivate each other. If you're up to that I'm all for it :)

@mamabear777, I totally understand! You know its not easy with a baby, and having the kind of patience and self discipline and motivation. Without those then we can't succeed to our goal, but I've been doing research and I'm going to try to start learning what kind of things you should eat, and vitamins that are necessary. Also how to workout correctly and how to workout a certain muscle group. You can definitely do it! The issues that you are unfortunately going through are just road blocks, but you can definitely work your way around it. :) and I'd be more than happy to be your partner to help motivate you!!

that's awesome. what have you found out so far as to vitamins?? I think the whole label thing Is to complicated on my behalf because seriously I love to eat good food.. That's my issue to and my husband is a chef so I have to cook good or I get corrected an as a woman that's not a good feeling. But yes let's defiantly keep in contact. So question, I've been sorta drinking different things all day with only 2 chicken wraps. I heard if you go long periods of time without eating you gain more too. Is that true??
