Want my pre-baby figure back!!

Wantstobefitagain

I am a 40-ish year old mother of 2 kids under the age of 5. I work full time, from home, and am SICK of not liking how I look. I REALLY want to get down to my pre-baby weight. I have about 15-20 lbs to lose. I am only 5'1" so that's a lot for someone with such a small frame. I know I can do it, I just need some encouragement and need to know that it IS POSSIBLE and I am not condemned to a life of feeling frumpy and middle aged. Please give me a pep talk and I will be so grateful!!

Im right there with ya! Im 24 and just had my first baby and I have about 20 lbs to lose to get back to my pre pregnancy weight! I know I can do it though and so can you!!! The most important thing is to eat a clean diet. Work hard and you WILL see results!!!

I'm not a mother but I'm 5'0" and needing to lose about 15lbs as well, so I can definitely relate to you! Feel free to add me if you'd like! I'd love for us to help motivate each other!

I also want my pre-baby figure back. My LO just turned one and I'm still holding onto these last 10 pounds. I refuse to spend another winter in yoga pants. I want my jeans back!

I'm a mommy as well! Except I want to lose about twice as much as you! My daughter is 8 months old so I kinda can't use the "I just had a baby" excuse anymore!!!

Sometimes...your baby gives you a new figure I'm just 3-4 pounds off my pre-babies weight, but it is distributed differently. But there is no reason you can't get into the best shape of your life right now!

You can do it! You're down to the last 15-20 lbs! But, remember; that the weight is distributed differently after baby. I used to be fairly straight; in size. But, i've noticed now i've definitely got more hips ect and so it does change the way that you carry the weight too. Something to keep in mine (although i'm sure you have). Remember, just eat smart and stay active! But, i'm sure with 2 little ones under 5 they keep you active as it is!

I'm right there with you! I am a Mommy of 5 and I'm 29. My youngest 2 are only 13 months apart. I am now 7 weeks PP and on week 2 of Insanity. It is making a huge difference already! I posted pictures in the success stories area titled My Insanity Progress(2 Weeks in).

I probably have 40-50 clients in this life-stage.. I will offer any advice you want, because I am sympathetic to it as my wife just had our first child, and I (don't really claim to understand) but sympathise with what a body change that is. feel free to message me anytime.. and good luck. It's done everyday, so you can do it too.

I feel the same way, I have a 6 and 3 yr old. I want to lose 15-20 lbs

5'3 mom of two.


Just had a baby last June of 2011.

Took me awhile to get my body back after the first one. I actually gained weight after he was born to add to the prebaby weight....learned my lesson the 2nd time around.

Pregnancy #2- prepregnancy - 125, at delivery 156, currently - 119!
