So how are you weight loss goals coming along?  

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
Well it's in the title, how's it going?
I've started to lose weight a little easier, still got about 40 pounds to go to get back to prekiddo weight. I went for a walk the other day with a girlfriend but the last two times we were supposed to go again she canceled on me. Guess I'll be takin the dog for a walk instead. My face seems to have thinned out a bit which is nice, almost no more double chin!!! lol Still got lots of tummy flab ugh will it ever go away? What are you ladies doin to lose weight now?
I was thinkin just walking should help me lose most weight, slowly but hey it will be gone. Then I figured I could lose the rest by doin some situps pushups etc. by then I should be fit enough...
How much are you eating now? I am only hungry twice a day, that is unusual for me. They are regular servings too not big honkin servings. Oh and I've pretty much lost all desire for sugar! Don't know what happened there, I've been addicted to sugar since I started my period. lol
So how about you ladies?

I've still got 15lbs. of my 40 total gained to go but I feel like I've plateaued. I remember that happening with my first son too and being freaked out thinking I'd have to work all that off. But I ended up dropping another 10 without much work and then just had to work of the last 5 (which was surprisingly hard). I've been craving sugar like crazy since the baby was born. My eating is just out of hand so I'm not surprised I'm not losing. I think if I could cut back the sugar then some more would come off. It's frustrating. My mat clothes of course are way to big or ill fitting without the belly and and I'm WAY off from fitting into my old clothes. Guess it's time to shop!

I've got maybe 10 lbs to go, but it's all in the gut ;( Arms, legs, face etc. were quickly back to normal, but I am heavy through the middle (and probs carrying 5+ lbs in the boobs, lol), so I still look big.
I held onto about 10 last time around too til I stopped BFing.
I've been working out lots-running, some strength building, but have been eating badly. I am ravenous at night (I think bc I don't have a lot of time during the day to eat). I'm trying to stop "treating" myself...good time with Halloween coming up, lol! I'm in my 1 size up clothes that I wore for most of my pregnancy...my normal clothes are still hilarious looking when I try them on. I am really motivated to lose the weight as we're going away to Mexico in January

I've lost 25 lbs and still have 10 lbs to go to be down to pre-preggo weight. I'd like to drop some more and get in better shape. My eating is totally reformed! : I'm tandem nursing so I'm ravenous, but eating so healthfully that the other day on my bday I couldn't stomach a peice of cake!!! It was too sweet, something that never would have bothered me before. I still drink too much milk imo, but hopefully I can cut down on that.

I feel really ugly and sometimes get down that my body is totally destroyed. Trying not to fixate and be less vain, to focus on health and wellbeing instead of physical appearence. (not doing great tho.)

I'm down to my pre-prego with DD (#2) and have 5 to go before I'm down to my all time low (before #1). These 5 lbs were hard, hard, hard to loose the last 2 times. So I'm hoping it goes better this time.

i have at least 20 lb to lose....i'm 5'2" and weigh 150. i was 125 when i got married but got preggo 2 mths later and haven't been below 140 since.

i definitely have to cut down sugar, because that's just about all i eat (along with carbs and dairy). have to include more veggies and water and move around more....

starting 1000 min challenge 2morrow so hope that gets me motivated...
