  • Hi I'm 20 wks postpartum tomorrow. And since coming home from the hospital I'm up 17lbs.. I had actually lost 7 lbs from my prepregnancy weight but with all the hormones (nursing) and sleep deprivation I've gained that and an extra ten lbs and it has been devastating! Mostly cuz it feels and looks like I've gained WAY more…
  • @lrob87 oh no! But I'm glad things are better!! I have rank anxiety this time around. Not so much ppd but post partum anxiety is just as bad in my opinion. But it's gotten way better. I think it mostly was the shock of sleep deprivation and the jump from 1-2 being so dramatic cuz of their age gap lol hence why we decided…
  • Hi @PJ100LBGOAL!! My first and second have a big gap between them as well. Oldest is 7 (8 next wk) and the youngest is 4 months and I seriously feel like a first time mom lol I thought I knew what I was getting myself into but nope it was too much of a gap and it's like I forgot everything and now my body (& mind) can't…
  • @elephanttrunkz thank you! That's exactly what I needed to hear! That once she starts sleeping better (hopefully sooner than later) and I get more sleep, I'll finally see a difference! B/c right now it's seriously the same two lbs I lose one day and then the next time I weigh myself, they're back lol But at least I haven't…
  • @caches87 you're lucky you can go that low!! If I go below 2000 I'm starving and hangry lol and I def see a drop in supply as I already have problems with supply :( Am having a hard time just staying within my calorie limit right now so as soon as that's not so much of a struggle I'll focus on the finer details of daily…
  • Thanks @Chelly0126!! It is so much harder with little ones, not just eating right but also trying to fit in workouts even if it's just a walk
  • Ahh thank you for your response! And I have that problem too of eating when bored or overeating. Which has gotten pretty bad right now... or I think I'm hungry but I'm actually just anxious or bored. So maybe most of my weight gain has actually been mistaking boredom or anxiety as being hungry and blaming all the…
  • Aww girl! That sounds like a very unhealthy relationship to me & I wanna say you should leave him but that's just from the glimpse you've given us. So I'm not sure what to say about that atm. BUT I will say that you should do this for YOU & no one else!!! Just to be healthier & feel better about yourself. Maybe once you're…
  • Thank you!! You too!! @kerr0920
  • @CB8504 thanks!! I wish you best of luck too!! Isn't it horrible how hungry one gets? Also not fair we gain weight while we're just trying to take care of our LO's! As much as it sucks I'm kinda glad to know it's not just me though but we got this mama!!
  • Will do!! We can do this!!
  • I think I found it yesterday and sent a request but haven't heard back yet!
  • I'm 4 months post baby and I get the struggle. For me, I gain weight after having babies though lol I'm up 16lbs since I came home from the hospital after having my second daughter. It's hard to find the right magic number where you don't feel hungry or affect your supply. Plus then you add sleep deprivation and omg I…
  • Happens to me all the time when I see pictures of myself or catch my reflection off guard. Keep up the good work!!
  • Sorry I don't know how to add anyone or anything here :neutral:
  • Hi! I'm so glad I found this b/c it's exactly what I need!! Motivation, support & accountability!! I'm Victoria, I'm 34 yrs old and I have a 4 month old & an 8 yr old. Since having my baby I've been gaining weight like crazy!! I'm up 16lbs :( I'm also breastfeeding and have been having a hard time finding the right balance…
  • I got that a month ago at three months postpartum. Shopping (pushing stroller) when some rude hag asked when I was due. I was so confused at first. Then just answered "may 10th"... So she looked down into the stroller and realized her mistake, instantly embarrassed and I just walked away while she was fumbling with trying…
