I am a 30 yr old  woman, still cute I may add although a bit overweight. I have a 4 yr old son who is equally adorable, and a wonderful husband. I started gaining weight gradually in my 20's but welcomed it as i was very skinny. Now after having a baby (yes 4yrs ago) I am struggling to lose this weight. I am 220lbs at 5' 9 yes I know I am tall and carry it well but I have to thank the girdle people! My stomach is my main course of discomfort!! As a black woman a little butt is very accepted(Smile). I look forward to losing at least 40 lbs. I am following YOU ON A Diet by Dr. OZ from Oprah and so far we will see.
