Hello everyone,
So here I am after 12 months away and 10lbs heavier than when I left but in that year I have:
- Moved 200 miles
- Planned a wedding
- Brought a house
- Gotten pregnant and had the baby
- Had 2 major abdominal surgeries
So i think a 10lbs gain isn't bad but im back now and with the wedding 4 weeks away i need to drop 10lbs for my dress it fit properly and not to be so snug x

10 lbs in 4 weeks will be tough to do, but I've seen it done before. Really focus on getting your nutrition dialed in. Eat right at the appropriate amount (no extreme calorie deficit, it's not worth it) and 5-6 days/week of intense, targeted exercise.
Oh, and congrats on the wedding!

You may also want to concentrate on firming up the muscles in the snug areas for a better fit. Right before make sure to watch the salt intake to prevent water retention. Welcome back :flowerforyou:0
