I'm Laurie, a work at home mama to three wonderful boys (Isaiah is 8, Xander is 5 and Sawyer is 2). I have my own virtual legal assistant business (very sedentary!) and have a wonderful husband I've been married to for 10 years (together for 14).

I was always an average weight, but with my first pregnancy my weight started to creep up. Then I got pg and had a miscarriage at 12 weeks and did some serious emotional eating and then got pg 2 weeks after the miscarriage (I was essentially pg for a whole year!!) When my second son was 9 months I got serious about losing some weight and went from 147 pounds to around 128. I used the GI Diet (very healthy eating - low sugar and only the "right" carbs, lots of fibre, etc) and it seemed to work really well for me. I didn't exercise much though and when I went back to work after mat leave (when Xander was 1) my weight started creeping back up.

Then I had my third child, started my own business and became even more sedentary. I'm now 160+ pounds and my clothes are all too tight. I want to get back to around 125 pounds and back (comfortably!) into my size 6 clothes.
