It's been 6 weeks now since I've had my second baby... and I gained loads while pregnant. I have a uniform to get back into come Dec and need to get back to pre pregnancy weight by then. Any new mums out there in same boat?

    Congrats on the new baby!

    How much do you have to lose? I just joined MFP about a month ago but I also do Weight Watchers and lost 24 lbs so far doing that plan. I find that working out on the treadmill helps me a lot as well and I hate to exercise so I only do that every other day.

    Good luck to you!

    I had my daughter seven weeks ago. She is our second and I gained back all the weight I had lost.

    Perkymommy To get bk to pre pregnancy about 25 lb I'll keep that as an initial goal but I'd like to loose 40lb in total.

    Fithunni86 Can you recommend a Zumba dvd pls?

    Kate it's so hard I told myself I'd be careful this pregnancy and not eat to much junk I lied.

    I have my 8 week check up shortly and then will start exercising properly I had to wear a hip brace for the last 8 week of pregnancy so have to ease myself in. Also breast feeding so I feel like I'm eating for a small army!!! I'm always hungry
