New mums weight loss thread - **weigh in on Fridays**

[star fish]

If you guys are happy with a monthly testing thread I would suggest that we use 30 March weigh in as our start weight?

I also think keep this thread going with tips and bad/good days and stuff?

I'm up for the 30th still sticking to my weight watchers in the meantime. Did OK today but went shopping so late I didn't check the points I was eating and went into 1 weekly pro-points

Stocked up on zero point jelly and going to make some zero point soup if I ever get the time.

Read this article in the daily mail about 4 minute workout, and am going to try this video out tomorrow, might get the 9 yr old to time me.

I. Think I was somewhere between 9st and 9 1/2st before I got pregnant. I'd ideally like to get back to 9st. I think I'm about 10 1/2 now. After I had Ben and went back to work, I was so manically busy I went down to 8st through stress. Would love to healthily get to that but not in the same way as last time.

Hey girls... Good luck with each of your post baby weight loss I was planning on joining you but got on the scales and only have 1lb to go til pre-preggo weight and back in all my normal clothes I am still at my heaviest ive ever been without a baby but since I am breastfeeding LO I don't want to decrease calories and risk him not getting what he needs. Once I stop bf (whenever that happens) I would like to lose 1 stone.

 

[Hemera]

my main issue is I really REALLY love eating The stuff I eat is generally healthy enough but I just eat lots of it. My goal will be to reduce portion size, and no snacking in the evening (unless its fruit). I generally walk quite a bit but going to up the tempo from a leisurely stroll to a march and might start weighing the buggy down with stuff to make it harder

 

[pushca]

What a good idea! Is it ok if I join?? X

 

[ft90]

I'm not going to be home until Sunday evening so I can't weigh myself until then! I'm thinking since I've been so ill here I MUST have lost weight! I ate two slices of pizza yesterday, 2 small bowls of soup the day before, and two spinach pastries the day before that so I've hardly been stuffing my face, I've had zero appetite, my dad has just been forcefeeding me so I have some energy to look after caleb!

Yes I eat my food in twos... I've had OCD since I was a child, really trying to get out of it, but I let myself do the little things!

So my starting weight will have to be on Monday morning xx

 

[star fish]

OK ladies, I am preparing our first weigh in thread, you will need to weigh yourselves on Friday (or when ever you like really) and then add to the thread and I will update it on page 1 - Good luck to you all! xx

We can do it!! Good luck everyone!

 

[Mrs. KM]

Oh I would like to join too! I weighed 130lbs prepregnancy and went up to 165lbs. I am now 142lbs. Hoping the weather warms up here soon so we can go for walks! It is still around 0 degrees here lately!

 

[star fish]

Oh dear, I was going to do it in stones but i realise some people might work in kilos or what ever? Does everyone mind if we just do stone and oz's?

 

[Mrs. KM]

I don't mind doing stones lol... I will look up the conversion

 

[littlemiss83]

Can I join.

I've always aimed to start on 1st April, thought April Fools Day was fitting loool

I put on alot of weight with my 1st LO, I went from 8 stone to 15 stone by the time she was 3, because I did absolutely nothing about my weight & kept eating. So....I went on to lose 5 stone. Got down to 10, just before I fell pg with Kayden I went back up again to 12 & now I weigh 14 ish (only put on 2 during pregnancy)

My ideal weight is 8/9 stone (im only 5ft 2) So I have 5/6 stone to lose but would be happy to lose 3 by summer.

I'm going back on calorie counting. I did well on 1000-1200 cals per day, and lost 5 stone in 8 months. So i'm gona do the same, never been one for exercise, but dont mind a couple of times on the exercise bike, couldn't do the gym tho.

Good luck everyone, i'll be starting in a few days

without sounding like doom and gloom, arent those of us breast feeding supposed to eat 3000 calories a day?
