Young moms looking for weight loss support/partners
Im looking for some weight loss partners who are also new mothers or moms that are ready to start battling their baby buldge. Im 5'8 and weigh 142 lbs. I delivered my little girl 7 wks ago. I hear breast feeding is suppose to help lose weight. I only breast feed (no bottles) and I have only lost 15 lbs.
I ideally would like to get back to my post pregnancy weight of 125 ish and tone, tone, tone.
Reason: Moved from Young Calorie Counters to Pregnancy and Parenting.
ok. im up for the challenge if you still are. i had my daughter almost a year ago and i lost almost 40 pounds after her. but since then ive slowly gained it back and i would like to lose at least 15-20 pounds. im 5'6 and 148 lbs.
hi there, yeah im up for it, i had my little girl 10 months ago but didnt really try and lose weight for the first few months as i had ceaserean section and wasnt able to work out etc and to be honest i wasnt overly bothered i needed all the energy i could get. Since then i have lost 51lbs and am down to 132lbs and i stand at 5ft 4. I am trying to lose the extra 5lbs possibly more depending and am finding it tough as its always the last little bit that is the hardest. I am due to get married next year and i ordered my dress, i am from the UK but my Maggie Sotterro dress is from US and sized 10. It fits perfectly but would love to have it taken in that little bit extra to feel extra fab on the day. So would be great to have someone that has some baby flab and that loose baby belly bit still hanging about over the jeans to moan with and support each other in this hellish situation!
feex1982x, off topic but I have to comment. I wore a Maggie Sottero dress at my wedding. It was by far the most beautiful dress I tried on. I knew the instant I saw it that it was the dress I would buy. I still haul that preserved dress out every so often and just look at it ![]()
I think I even have a photo of it in my profile..hah!
ahh its a lovely dress, its true what they say when you just 'know'trust me to pick the most expensive inthe shop though!
Hi, I'll join in on the fun too! I've been counting since the beginning of January, lost about 6 lbs so far. I'm 5'10" and 190 right now. My son was born March 07 and my daughter was June 08. I actually lost a lot of weight after both were born, but over October, november, december, I put on 30 lbs when I quit smoking. I can't believe I've been trying to lose for almost two month now but I've only gone down 6 lbs. How did I gain 30 in three months! Everyone says your metabolizm changes from smoking, I don't know if I believe it.
