Hi, I'm currently 9 weeks post partum and have over the last 2-3 weeks been exercising and eating alot better. I put on 4 stone when I was pregnant but before I pregnant weighed around 10 stone but I am currently stuck at 12 stone 5lbs and just cant seem to shift it the last couple of weeks and if anything seem to have put on a pound or two (according to the scales)
I am doing 10,000 steps I would say at least 5 out 7 days.. eating around 1500/1600 calories a day and doing workout at home 3 times a week.
I am feeling unmotivated now and don't understand what I'm doing wrong and why the scales are at a stand still, ? I am not knowledgeable really so any advice would be great!

    You just had a baby... takes time for the hormones and everything to shift back to normal. Are you breastfeeding?
