another baby another attempt to lose the weight

Congrats on your little one! I have three as well! Feel free to add me!

My 3rd is 3 almost 4 and I am still trying to lose the weight. 20 lbs isn't "A LOT" of weight to most people but it is when you know the reason you feel bad is because you aren't eating properly. I've found over the last few years is that Pilates works wonders as far as exervise goes without a lot of huffing and puffing that comes with most other exercise programs if you are physically able to do that now. Also, eat small meals often. You can do it just make sure you have a good support system.

It is hard losing weight after babies. I have had 5, one right after another. I nursed each one and just could NOT lose weight while I was nursing. After #5 (we're done, unless we adopt later), I decided it was TIME to work on my weight. So in the last year I have lost about 100 lbs. through clean eating and exercise. My advice to you if you are nursing would be to just focus on that right now, cleaning up your eating (no sugar or processed food) and make exercise a part of your life, just like brushing your teeth. Check out Tosca Reno's Eat Clean Diet books, they have been life changing to me. Trust me, it can be done! Just remember it is a journey, not a race, and you will get there. Also remember we have seasons of life as women, and this may be the season to nurture the babies, and your weight loss journey may need to take second place (not saying to throw caution to the wind). Remember these moments are short and fleeting and will be over before you blink. Feel free to send me a friend request, I would love to be an encouragement to you! Blessings on your journey!
