I don't like to complain to family or friends so please bear with me as you all are my MFP friends...

I love my son. I really really do. But pregnancy sucked. And the weight is coming off so so so slowly. I am not good at losing weight. I am impatient and a big baby! That is why I maintained a healthy weight for so long. I never wanted to need a diet. I didn't get fat having fun eating burgers and fries and anything I wanted. I got fat eating pretty healthy and gaining the 30 lbs I was supposed to gain while pregnant. But only 10 came off after the birth. Its just not fair!!!! Ok I am done whining. Back at it. Excercise...nutritous food and a healthy attitude.
Thanks for letting me get that off my chest!

    I'm glad I can help!
    PS: your baby is a gift, not everyone can have them!! And besides, the real pain in the *kitten* comes when they turn into teenagers!! You're gonna wish your weight was your only problem!!
    You're beautiful, take care of yourself first from now on!!

    cleaning is my escape too!!! some people on here say not to log cleaning as exercise but when you do as much as I do (cause I like it), then you can log some.... and some people think I'm crazy for liking it

    I think it's great that you like cleaning. I like the satisfaction of looking around at my neat and clean house afterward. And I do log the calories but I don't eat them. I feel better that I've gotten some type of exercise.:wink:

    In the same boat as you. I was really active during my pregnancy. Running well into my 3rd trimester. Healthy eating, everything. Still gained 45lbs. After all that work trying not to gain alot of weight. I still did.
    I'm in the process of trying to lose 25lbs.
    Alot of us can relate to your frustration. Good luck on your weight loss :)
