New and need some tips

Options
I just had a little girl 3 months ago.
I got up to 135 pounds. Which is really big for a women that's 4'11".
Lucky me I lost 30 of it just like it was nothing. I need tips to lose the remaining 5 pounds and how to tone my stomach and chest. I'm a 110, my goal is 105.

    Well, first off it depends on how much you currently exercise. Do you do lots of cardio (or ANY cardio?)? Any weights? Sports? 5 pounds shouldn't be that hard to lose if you spent about 3 or 4 weeks doing a nice combo of cardio exercises and some basic weight training (or even just crunches or planking).

    I have a treadmill that I'm currently using. I use it a 10% incline for 30 mins twice a day.

    You can't spot reduce. I would recommend adding in weight training. Check out fitnessblender.com for some ideas on home workouts.

    Add in some calisthenics & toning. Even if you just lift a can or a closed box of something to add resistance.
