I want to lose 50 pounds in three months ... I feel that this is not realistic . I just feel like a fat slob after I had my daughter ..I just kept gaining weight I feel very self conscious about my weight just wanted to vent and get some support. I want to feel better inside and out . Anyone feel this way or am I on an island by myself :(

    everyone here is here because they either have a problem with them selves or had a problem with themselves. you are far from alone. start your weight loss today. start logging, and be realistic with yourself and your goals. this isn't going to happen overnight.

    50 lbs in 3 mod is not realistic. Why not lose 5 lbs at a time. Small realistic goals are more attainable. Good Luck. Don't set yourself up for failure. You can do this and you will. :)

    It really depends . . . 50lbs in 3 months is (possibly) achievable for me because I have waaaaay more than that to lose. Quick weight loss is not healthy at lower weights (people, please correct me if I'm incorrect on that).

    Honey! You don't say when your daughter was born? Weeks, months or years? It is important to know the facts of this before people give advise! My immediate thoughts are post-natal depression? Without knowing more, I personally will not give you any advice other than sending a huge virtual hug and suggesting you see your doctor! I merely suggest this from the tone of your email, which of course I might have completely wrong. This weight loss journey is not easy! But if you aim for tiny goals - 0.5lbs a month weight loss - and you achieve that - hell that is a result! God bless and don't be too hard on yourself! You have achieved a major life achievement - Motherhood! Embrace and enjoy it! It is your gift! You brought life into the world! Wow! xx
