My story is that I have 2 kids (a 3 year old and a nine month old) I am a breastfeeding mom, and I can't lose weight. I have ongoing postpartum depression and am taking zoloft. Before my kids I lost 90 pounds from 242 to 152, and now I just cannot seem to lose. My lowest after my second boy was 168 but today I weigh 178, despite low carb, weight watchers everything. Im super down about it. My father in law died this week, and we buried him on the day of my 5 year wedding anniversary. I just cannot seem to get it together in more ways than one right now. And clearly my husband must feel awful, if I feel sad at all, just needed to get it all out. And I feel ripped off because we've had some tough times maritally and I really wanted to celebrate surviving for 5 so far, but, clearly that isn't on the table right now. I feel horrible for feeling that way when my hubs must feel tons and tons worse. And its sad that in all of this I am nitpicking myself for being a fatty. I will cheer up I promise. looking for all the support and advice I can get. Thanks to all who listened

How are you today? I'm new to this site and I'm also a mom of 2 with a 3 mos old and 4 year old. My heart just went to you when I read your thread. I wanted to just give you a hug. I hope you feel better and your hubby too. Don't give up... Your kids are so lucky to have you. Make a list of all the stuff you do for them and everyone else. You will realize you are close to being a superhero.. Next, I challenge you to do as many great things but for yourself this time... A challenge and a half I swear and filled with guilty feelings but oh ever rewarding and enlightening.

Good luck!!
