Young Moms losing weight

21, 5'9" with about 35 lbs to loose.

Mom start by looking at the food in your house. Read the back of what you eat. Look at calories YES but also look at sugar,fat,etc.,.
If your still eating bread switch to whole wheat. For example:Have a slice in the morning with almond butter on it or peanut butter instead of regular butter,slice up a bananna some mornings and add it to the bread. A boiled egg or an egg white omlete with some fresh veggies like mushrooms,or spinach(Also good for flattening stomachs) Drink a cup of green tea with it. The antioxidents in it are good for you. Add some fresh fruit if still hungry.
Get a book on nutrition and you will learn whats good for you. You can change habits without buying "diet foods and drinks". Try greek yogurt with bearnaked granola,or blueberries as a snack. Or a peice of fresh fruit. A bowl of fruit. Melons are good for you.
Then you have to ease into getting active. Try walking, get a beginners exercise tape that might start you off with 10 minutes and work you up to 40 minutes a session. Like the Special K challenge tape. It is a process. I did this till I was doing 40minutes in the morning and 40-1hr and 15minutes at night. Begin to mix it up. Beginners' yoga,beginners pilates,beginners aerobics/cardio. Although you don't want to lose too much too fast. If you eat right and ease yourself into moderate exercise not only will you see results but you'll see results you like and it will be in line with your schedule.

You ladies can do it. I got serious in last week of March 1st week of April and by July I was down From 163-133. I flux from 133-135 and have even cut my morning workout from 40 minutes to 10-20. I'm on the last leg of p90x(My night time work out) and about to try insanity. Couldn't do this months ago. But now I feel I can do anything and Yes I did it mostly at home with exercise tapes and equipment. I joined the gym for the last month in July when I plateaued at 140. And that 1month help me get down to 135 and I went back to doing my thing at home in Aug and now Sept. Like I said. Start with cleaning out your pantry. Changing how you eat and what you eat(Healthy isn't always nasty). Then ease into being active. Talk to your doctor who might have some awesome ideas also on exercise that is fitting for you. Everybodys' body is different and reacts differently to different things. Take this into account. But it is good to learn what works for you and what doesn't get a scale too which will help you. Good Luck Ladies. And I am in my early 30's

YOU CAN DO IT MOMS:~)

Ok here is some of the tapes in my arsenal Kettlenetics-purchased at Target came with the Kettlebell3lbs started dvd 1 until I could move on to dvd 2(also in the pack) 2-3 days a week 20 minutes dvd #2 is 40 minutes but it was a month and a 1/2 b4 I could do it. She has a way of working your middle too thats not bad

Denise Austin 3week bootcamp Cardio and strength intervals 20minutes and athletic trainng also 20minutes. She has a 6minute ab blaster on there that is good. 2 or 3 times a week.

Rodney Yees Beginners Yoga 1-2 a week he also has a 15 minutes result Yoga dvd that is cool and easy to follow.

Pilates for begginners with Kristin McGee and Ana Caban's Quick Start Pilates(2 aweek).

If your looking to ease into exercise Leslie Sansone's Walk your way thin seris may be the way to go. She doesn't get on the floor unless you want to do that part. She just moves and it's like walking 1,2 and even 3miles. I mixed it up in there 1-2 a week.

When I became good with exercise I did SHAPE Best ever Hollywood workout(Yes Gunner Peterson) That guy has shaped everyone from Ben Affleck to Jlo. Kim K is currently "supposidly" one of his current clients. He has 2 10 minute routines and 2 20 min routines. There are 7 days in a week and you should pick 2 days of rest. But mix it up and keep your body guessing so that it doesn't get use to any one particular routine. Try 4-5days one way and then the next week reverse everything. Drink plenty of plain old WATER too at least the regular 8 that your suppose to a day. I don't do soda or fruit drinks. I do drink unsweetened tea(Green) though or a packet or two of Splenda . Have you ever seen all of the sugar and sodium in soda and juice? And if I do juice it is all natural. Fad diets will get you no where or only temp results. Know your food and how to play with it and you will see results. How good is your will power? YOU CAN DO IT MOMS:~)

Oww. I will be checking for your results. Heard the Brazillian butt lift is a nice work out. Need a next after insanity. Good luck and by the way I have 3kids.

I'm 22 5'8" with 50 lbs to lose i was bed ridden during my pregnancies and lost 50 after i had my second child but have at least 50 more to go

I'm Natasha, I'm 5'7" and right now pregnant am weighing 180lbs. I'm due Sept 17, induction going to be Sept 24 if she doesn't show up by then. Counting on BFing, diet and walking to help lose some of the weight. I want to get down to 140 lbs in the long run, but with a tighter body for the most part and be physically fit again. I started losing weight before I got pregnant, and had gotten down to 135 lbs, but then pregnancy made me pack it all back on and then some. I feel absolutely horrible right now, and I want to be able to feel healthy again!

How has everyone been doing today?

DD and I walked the mall for 4 hours. I didn't have anyone to watch her and she's not 6 weeks yet so I can't take her to the gym yet. I took her in her travel system and really walked it a few times before even looking at shops. Good luck everyone!
