Hey peeps! I'm 29 and based in the UK.
I gave birth to my little princess Hope Elise, 9 weeks ago via C Section & she was a whopping 9lbs 2oz!!! While pregnant I had a major sweet tooth & suffered from water retention & swelled up like Kim Kardashian! I put on 3 stone (42 pounds) while pregnant & have lost 2 stone (28 pounds) already. I started exercising 3 weeks ago & need to lose another stone (14 pounds) to get back to my pre pregnancy weight. I'm not following a specific diet, I'm just trying to eat healthy & exercise at least 3 times a week. It would be great to hear from other new mums or anyone else trying to loose weight. I'm in need of some encouragement, especially with Christmas round the corner... I love cheese, wine & chocolate!!! HELP!!!
