Hang in there, there are a number of things that can have you gaining almost a pound. I bet it's water, so just watch your sodium. You have lost 8 pounds and that is great! And just an FYI, building the muscle is not going to make you gain weight. It takes up more mass and helps you burn fat.

Wow, what an incredible story. I am so glad you and your baby are healthy today! You can do this. My baby is 9 months old. I was 117 when I got pregnant with her too. Now, I will be just happy to be 120-125.

Same here. Start with 16 ounces and right before bed 16 ounces. I usually drink between 14-16 cups of water a day.

It's usually around 300-500 extra depending on how much you are nursing. I started when my baby was7.5 months and allowed 300 extra calories. Hope this helps!

It bugs me too!

Thanks for sharing!

Great post, thanks for sharing!

As long as you get back up, that's all that matters! You are still doing great!

No, I never do.

Welcome aboard! I, too have a hard time losing baby weight....that's why I am here too. Best of luck, you can d this!

I am so sorry, that really sucks! People are so crappy =(

Exactly!

Agreed, don't do it.

I feel the same exact way you do! I just chalked it up to one of my favorite sayings "haters are gonna hate" =)

Welcome aboard! =)

It's okay, tomorrow is a fresh start. Don't be too hard on yourself!

I have no advice, but wanted to say sorry you are feeling like you are in a rut, I hope it gets better soon for you!

Some people just like to "mind screw" others. You can't control what he does, but you can control what you do on your end. I would ignore him at all costs, he is not worth your health.

I always drink a big glass of water right before and right after I eat.

Welcome aboard, you found the right place and now you don't have to do this alone! =)

I wash my hair every day now since I work out every day.

Welcome and good luck!

Welcome Laura! I am here losing baby weight too! Best of luck to you!

It's okay, we all have down days. Start fresh tomorrow. It doesn't matter if we fall, what matters is that we get back up. You got this!

Thanks Angela. Good luck on your competition, any loss is a good loss =)

I am 5'2" and my goal is 120-125. Almost there =)

I always drink a large glass of water before and after dinner and it really helps. It usually takes 30 minutes to start feeling full. I also have a large bowl of lettuce or veggies with dinner and it helps a lot. Keep up the good work, you are doing great!

I just got into the normal BMI yesterday and it feels darn good! Congrats!

Agreed!

Agreed. You got this, you are going to do just fine!
