26 yr old mother of 2, trying to get back into shape! :)

Hi! I am 26 and just had my 2nd baby 3 weeks ago. I'm looking for people to keep me on track. I have a hard time sticking to things alone. I would like to lose around 40lbs and get in shape. Anyone have fun exercises, weight loss tips, or healthy recipes to try? Feel free to add me.:smile: Thanks!

  • Hey there! just added you! I am also 26 and just had my 2nd baby 6 weeks ago...i am trying to hard to get back to pre pregnancy weight and get into shape. I actually would like to lose about 10 more pounds more than what my pre pregnancy weight was....I love to Run but that can get boring sometimes...have you tried Turbo Jam?? I have the DVDs and they are fun and makes it not feel like the same old boring workout!

    Hello, I am 28 and have a 4 1/2 year old and a 19 month old. In the summer, I found a really great 5K training program online...and I biked and played in the yard with my oldest. Now that the weather is not always holding up (WI) I have started Jillian Michaels Total Body Revolution. It is awesome so far. I did my first "Workout 3" this morning and so far have already lost 7 pounds. I can tell that my arms are getting stronger and my legs are slimming down! I definitely recommend it! Between those things and just eating healthier (skinnytaste.com rocks) I have lost 16 pounds since the summer...You can do it!

    I was wondering if JM Total Body Revolution was worth the price. Do you find it to be difficult? Congrats on getting healthier!

    Workout three and four already kick it up a notch from the first two weeks but they are great! I paid 120 and it is worth it...
