i'd say you're doing a great job. one other thing i've learned is to put some hustle in your step. clean your house as fast as you can, to get your heart pumping a little faster. you'll get the house clean in a fraction of the time and you'll burn extra calories at the same time. even just a few minutes here and there while your twins are playing/sleeping can really make a difference |

Thanks for your post. i gave birth to my first child two months ago via c-section and have been trying to lose the excess weight without damaging the incision. Needless to say, it's been a challenge. I can't help but look back on old pictures of myself before i got pregnant and dreaming of having that body back. I don't like the stretch marks or my new love handels and have been obcessing over losing the weight. My husband tells me daily how good i look and how proud of me he is, but i couldn't get it through my thick skull until i read your post. I'm VERY proud and honored to have begun a family, and i love my daughter with all of my heart. But it wasn't until i read your post that i realized how special my new body is. I'll still work hard to achieve better health, but i'll try not to be ashamed of who i've become since giving birth. Again, thank you for putting things into perspective. You've touched me (your post made me cry). Hopefully, you can help other women the way you've helped me. |
