Moms 25-35

I feel u girl.. Hang in there... I'm almost in the same situation n I still have about 15 more lbs to lose.

Hey there, I'm in a similar position. My son is almost 16 months old and I've lost and regained about 5 pounds a few times since he was born. I need to lose about 100lb though, and with the new year, I'm reasserting myself as an active, vibrant woman, wife and mama. For family meals, I find it really helpful to make a big pot of something and freeze portions. It's great for when you've had a crazy and do not want to cook, or work out calories etc. It's already there, set to go and you don't need to measure anything out! A good one I use is making spaghetti bolognese from scratch with crushed tomatoes and grating a heap of vegetables into it, along with the lean beef. Also, I try to make sure I always have some eggs, and a form of meat in the freezer - makes it easier to get a nutritious meal together when you're busy or the day has gotten away from you.
