I had a baby more than a year ago and I was hoping the baby weight would just come off. No such luck! Now I’m actively trying to lose 30lbs. Would love to connect to other moms trying to lose baby weight for support? Or hear inpirational stories/advise from those who’ve lost weight post baby?

    Hi, I’m also trying to lose baby weight. My twins were born 3 years ago and most of the weight dropped off quickly, but there’s an extra 20lb or so (I gained a LOT during pregnancy!) which is still hanging around.

    I’m not actually unfit, I made a point of regaining my fitness, and ran a half marathon last year. Didn’t lose any weight doing it though!

    I’ve come to the conclusion that I eat far too much, so I’ve been tracking my food for a couple of weeks now. Unfortunately circumstances have changed and I don’t have time for running at the moment, but I walk a couple of miles a day and do workouts at home whenever I have the time (and energy!).

    Congrats on running the half marathon! That’s awesome! I’m trying to get back into running myself, but it’s been a slow process.
