Who else needs to lose a baby gut?

edited December 2024 in Introduce Yourself
So, funny how the baby is birthed, yet the padding remains. I'm on my journey to lose the padding and I hope I'm not alone in doing so! Any advice or helpful hints on targeting the leftover weight would be very welcome! Feel free to add me if y'all want. :)

    No real hints other than just keep focused and don't give up. Don't expect anything over night. Slow and steady, you know.

    I'm currently working on the same.. though at this point it's more of a pooch. At least that's what I tell myself. ;-)

    The pooch! So ridiculous, I know! I've lost 20lbs to date, just trying to lose another 15. I've just never had to lose so much weight off my "gut region" before! New challenge, I guess! :) Thanks for all the advice, ladies!

    Me me me! My son turned 1 in July, and I'm just now getting to where I was pre-pregnancy. I did the first months Insanity work out which helped with my stamina so much, now I'm jogging for the first time in my life. I'm trying to shed some pounds by jogging and eating well, then thinking about doing the full two months of Insanity. Might be a little easier when I'm not a tuba-lard lol

    me me me!

    I have 5 kids, my baby is 9 months old. I totally carry my weight in my stomach. Blech. I'm also breastfeeding, and my metabolism seems so.dang.slow.

    Good thing those babies are so cute!

    Hey. I've added you. Breastfeeding helps I've found but I hear ya, I've lost 10kg (22 lbs) but still have a gross flabby tummy! Apparently weight training helps, I've been doing weights for 2 weeks so I'll keep you posted...
    good luck!

    Mom of 4, my youngest is 6 years old now & I'm finally losing the weight. You can't target where the weight comes off, but you can tone the muscles so when the weight does finally come off, you'll have a nice, tone tummy! Be patient & keep working hard & you'll see the results you're looking for! :)
