new mom looking for motivation/loose weight!

Hey guys...

I am a new mother of a 6 month old. I had gained 60lbs roughly (that's where I stopped weighing in) through my pregnancy and lost roughly 40 lbs thus far just by breastfeeding. I am now a whopping 189 lbs at 5'3 and looking to loose the rest of my baby weight, 20 lbs, and then some to reach my goal of 125-130 lbs.

so, right now I am a mother of 2 and at the end of the day I am pretty tired out. I would like to work out at night or even in the mornings, but I cannot seem to fit them in. if im lucky, ill try and get some form of workout during the day.

I am looking for friends to be my support people, as I to them, for motivation. also, to suggest any new techniques that may be working for them. right now, im just trying to eat clean, but slipping up in some shape or form....so please help :flowerforyou:

  • I have a 5 year old and 2 year old and could use a mom buddy to get motivated with. It is hard but I did lose 50 pounds and am now trying to get back on track to lose the rest.

    That's awesome! I would love to add you. before my pregnancy I used to love working out, but since its been over a year sonce I have worked out, I find it difficult. so right now, with my oldest child, I have been using the just dance video game as cardio that way I can get a workout and spend quality time with my daughter :) its also a great way for me anyway, to get back into the motion of actually working out :)

  • Hi! i'm also a mommy of 2. i have a 9 yr old and an almost 3 year old. I could definitely use some motivating friends! Add me too:) it's hard to stay motivated when i feel bad about myself but my husband says i look perfectly fine. i need to lose over 50 lbs and that so doesn't help. I just started working out with my 9 year old and its fun just dancing and finding videos online to follow, too.
