Any new mothers out there?

I just had my first baby at the end of August and now I'm trying to get the last of the weight off and tone my tummy again.  I've lost 10lbs already but I have another 15 to 20 left to lose.  So, any other new mommies out there trying to get back your old bodies?

yup! i had my daughter in May and am trying to lose those last 7 lbs.  I dont know if my old body will ever come back, but I'm trying!

My "baby" just turned one and I still need to loose 40lbs!!! This was my 2nd baby and it was definitely easier to loose after my first!!! Most of the weight just seemed to fall off but I did have to try to get those pesky last 10 off...This time nothing really fell off and I havent really tried but since my "baby" is now a toddler I guess I have to stop using the excuse "baby weight"!!! The good news is...once I started watching what I ate and working out I think my body was actually in better shape than it was before my first pregnancy...(that is until baby #2 came along) but Im hopeful if I make the same effort it will come back...Good luck

I'm a mom of 3.... 5 1/2, 4, and almost 2... i can no longer use "baby weight" as an excuse. I was doing really well with dropping the weight... but it has slowly crept up again. I'm trying to NOT obsess about the numbers or the inches... i just need to lose weight so that I can keep up with the kids.

I'm here to support you Moms.

Let's support each other...

Cheers to you... and you... and me... and all of us.

 

 

I just had my 3rd son a month ago. My pre-preggo weight was 120, at his birth I was at 165, so I gained 45 lbs. I'm currently at 145, I lost 20 lbs right away after his birth. BUT, now I'd like to lose at least another 20 so I can fit into my clothes again and not have to purchase any new pants. All my old pants are 4s and 6s - I had to go to the thrift store and buy a couple pairs of 10s and 12s. All my shirts and sweaters fit, so I need to fix the hips/butt/thigh area and tone the abs.

 

I am not a new mom, my son is 4 and this is the heaviest I have been.  I keep telling myself that it's because I had problems during my pregnancy and ended up gaining 40 in 2 weeks, but 4 years later, come on that excuse only works for so long.  I started the 12 week program yesterday and I have so many questions.  Like why does my calorie count say only 1500/day when my BMR that I did today say at least 1678 calories a day.  I am so confused, and as you know being a mommy you don't have time to figure this all out.  I also have a daughter that is 9.  Does anyone know what all these numbers mean? 

I am a mother of 4. I have a 5 year old, 3 year old and 2, 18 month old twins. The first child, I lost my weight in six months. However, for my second, it took a whole year. With my twins, it's been a year and a half and I still have almost 20 pounds to lose.

It hasn't been that long for you, your body will adjust back to normal. Just keep up your dieting efforts and you'll be back to normal in no time.

I am a new mom too~ my baby is 7 months old. I do have a 14 year old and it was definately alot easier to lose the baby weight after having her. I have found it extremely hard to lose weight, although I find it hard to get back into the groove of things. I desperately want to lose about 50 pounds or so. Good luck to you
