nice,i know! it took me forever to lose my baby weight from the boys, now to start again, well i cant wait see your progress:happy: , mine is kinda slow but im not giving up, they say its easier to lose weight when baby is 6months and older so im on a waiting process.I started with low calories i didnt lose nothing for a month even working out,so i started reading about upping my calories its best for weight lose and helps miantain my milk supply so i just started doing this hope it works:sad: wishing you a great day take care0
