I have just got the polar ft4, easy to use and not too expensive, got mine off amazon.

I had a baby 7 months ago and have lost the same amount of weight but I still need to lose a few more pounds and still have a pouch. Have done the shred and ripped and I do the 6 week 6 pack occasionally but I might try and do this on a regular basis to tone my abs. Well done to you.

I'm so pleased that you have got a diagnosis and are able to enjoy exercise and dance again. Fantastic results. Good luck with your future career.

I am a mother to a 6 month baby girl. I have lost weight and have completed 30 day shred, ripped in 30. Also do banish fat boost metabolism, 6 week 6 pack and killer buns. Try and do a workout at least 5 times a week at the mo.

I have only done 1 week of the reset, I'm stuck at 131/132. I would stick with moderate exercise to work out your TDEE. I wouldn't change much else if I were you especially as your at the same weight. I can't decide whether to do a 4 or 8 week reset. Good luck with it.

I'm from Nottingham, managed to lose 21 pounds but on a diet break for 4-6 weeks and then I will try to lose the last 5 pounds, feel free to add me.

When I used to do weightwatchers a few years ago I worked out that I roughly had an allowance of 1500 calories a day and then they encouraged you to eat your activity points back. I have lost 20 pounds with mfp post baby but now I can't lose anymore. I think 1200 calories is too low for me.

Thanks, I have increased my calories to 1400 and was going to increase again the week after to 1600 and see what happens. :smile:

Is that your net calories? I'm just increasing my calorie intake now as I have stopped losing weight.

I worked on NICU too for a while but now work on Critical Care. I'm going to up my calories on friday if no weight lost, decision made.

I'm stuck at 132, I'm also 5"3 and a RN, not doing 12 hour shifts at the mo as I'm on maternity leave. I'm considering upping my calories although they vary from 1200 to 1600 per day depending on my activity levels. May try and eat back all my exercise calories back. I want to get down to 126 as that was my pre pregnancy…

Running but if you haven't done this before build up gradually. Look up the couch to 5k plan. Interval training works for me, so a period of running followed by walking and repeat.

I can now just get into my size 10 skinny jeans but I wear size 12 dresses.

I'm from Nottingham, only 6 pounds of baby weight to lose. This site is really good and I found it easier to use than weightwatchers.

Killer buns and thighs is a great workout. I wouldn't do it together with ripped in 30 everyday but maybe a few days a week.

I started working out 11 weeks after having my baby and began with the 30 day shred. I then did 6 week 6 pack and killer buns and thighs alternating them every day for a few weeks. This worked well for me. I have now started ripped in 30. I find all of her workouts effective and are really helping me lose the baby weight.…

I used to go to the gym but cancelled when I became pregnant. I have since had great success with working out at home. I do a Jillian Michaels DVD 6 days a week and C25K 3 times a week. I have been amazed at the results and I am getting closer to my pre pregnancy weight. You just need to get a few hand weights and…

Killer buns and thighs is really good too, I hope they release body revolution in the UK soon!

I was planning to start ripped in 30 in June. I have just finished 30 day shred last week. Did this just before I fell pregnant, was a lot harder second time round as had not done any exercise for nearly a year. I lost 8 pounds in total doing the shred. At the mo I am alternating 6 week 6 pack and killer buns and thighs. I…

I also do the 30 day shred 6 days a week and have started couch to 5k 2 weeks ago. I eat around 1400 calories also and when I do have a treat it doesn't seem to affect my weight loss but I'm not sure if it helps the weight loss. Maybe try eating 1600 calories a day, and see if this has an effect on your weight loss. Good…

I have doing the 30 day shred and I have one rest day a week. I also do a lot of walking with my baby and I have started the couch to 5k program but only started this a week ago. I would stick with it. I didn't lose any weight one week and then lost 2 pounds the week after. I also tend to eat a bit more if I have done a…

I'm doing 10 days per level and 1 rest day a week . When I have finished this I am going to do ripped in 30. I am trying to lose the baby weight. Before I was pregnant I used to regularly do 2 levels at a time. I am know where near that level of fitness yet.

I am on day 4 of the 30 day shred. Have just started it again after having a baby. I'm so unfit compared to this time last year. Its a good short workout though as I haven't got the time to go to the gym anymore. Just doing the shred and trying to walk everywhere.

I am starting the shred next week, psyching myself up for it after having a baby 3 months ago. I used to do the shred regularly, my fave was doing level 1 and 3 together.
