New to Site. Trying to lose Baby Weight

Rachel122810

Hello,
I just joined this site yesterday because I am determined to lose 30 pounds and return to my pre pregnancy body. My daughter was born December 2010 and I love her so much but I also want to love my body as well. I have been in a rut since she was born and now I am determined to lost these pounds. I just want to be happy. Right now I hate shopping and cant even look at the swim suit rack right now. I am looking for friends who understand what I am going through...

Hi there,
I am in the same boat...need to lose 30lbs to get back to my pre-baby self. I have 2 boys, 3 and 1. Feel free to add me as a friend and hopefully we can help each other stay motivated!!

There is plenty of support on this site. Just stick to your MFP plan and eat healthy and exercise. I highly recommend some strength training as it will help you tone up and be stronger. One popular workout on here right now is Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. It's a DVD that kicks your butt with cardio and strength training, but it is only 20 minutes long. I have seen a bunch of people with great results from it. I just started it myself and would love another 30DS buddy.

Also, eating healthy is a must!

I need to lose about 40-ish pounds before I can look at the bikini rack! Hopefully I can by a new bikini this summer! And you too!
Good luck and stick with it! You can do this!

And congratulations on your baby.

Thank you!!! My boyfriend wants to go to South Padre Island on March 17th for Spring Break so I want to lose atleast 15 pounds by then so I can look half way decent in a bikini. I am trying Turbo Jam right now and maybe when I get bored with that I can switch to Jillians workouts. I am also considering Insanity. I have heard it is pretty awesome.
