What I have achieved in one month

shoppie

I originally joined MFP in Jan 09 with a 3 month old baby. I lost most of the weight, then got pregnant again. I started using the site again one month ago today when DD was 4 weeks old (because I had gained weight in the previous week and thought 'noooooo I cannot put weight on *after* the baby has arrived!). Today precisely one month later, I:

am 13 pounds lighter
and have lost:
1 inch from top of thigh
half inch from calf
2 inches from waist
one inch from underbust
half inch from arm top
2 inches from my widest part (saddlebags!)

Really, even I have to think that is awesome, and I can definitely see the difference as I now comfortably fit back into UK size 14 clothes (US 10). I am about 4 pounds heavier than before falling pregnant, so that comes first and then I will focus on the rest of it!

Still quite a way to come, but in one month, ain't I done good? :bigsmile:


I have to remind myself how far I have managed to come in just one month next time the naughty food is calling me!

Hi, that's fantastic. I have just completed my first 4 weeks too and I have lost 8lbs Good for you doing it so soon after baby is born. My weight dropped right down after second baby and has creeped up steadily since (said baby is now nearly 4 lol) so it really is overdue for me to do something about it.
