I am 10 months postpartum and need to lose 25-30 pounds before I have another baby. Has anyone else struggled getting the weight postpartum? Any successes and tips you can share? I breastfed my daughter for 7 months but still not a lot of weight loss. I would love some feedback.

    I gained a bunch of weight with my first pregnancy, and I only lost 20 lbs postpartum. I went on to lose another 82, which took me about a year, before getting pregnant again (I'm due in late May).

    I wouldn't say there are any special "tips" for losing weight postpartum versus any other time. I just logged everything I ate religiously and worked out. I did the Couch to 5K program and also started Spinning.

    It's not easy, though - you just have to keep your motivation!
