    Read through the boards on this site. Count your calories and log it. Get some friends and check out their diaries. Spend a few hours reading around this site and you can start the weight loss journey we're all on.

    Congrats on the little one. My little guy is 11 weeks and we walk a lot. I walk after I drop my older two off at school. I try my best to eat healthy, drink lots of water and walk.

    Congrats! Our little one is also 4 months :) After our first (we have 4) I lost a lot of weight by walking and counting calories. The main thing is no matter how many times you fail, keep trying. You CAN do it! :)

    Congrats on your baby! First of all it happens, I gained quite a bit with my LO. Second of all, it took 9 (well technically 10), to gain that weight, so it will not happen over night. The added pressure and stress will do you no favors. Make sure you are staying consistent and logging. Stay away from high fats, sugary carbs, soda, juice, anything loaded with sugar. If you can, lifting weights combined with cardio is so effective! You can do it!!! I've lost 45 lbs total, I didn't start my fitness journey until my LO was 6 months old. I completely relate and understand your frustrations!! Hang in there, you can do this.
