  • Don't be too hard on yourself. I had the same problem with one of my twin boys (who are now 13 months). He would leak & soil all of his clothes- but the diaper would be almost dry! I have a 7 year old son & didn't think about that either! Now, we use cloth diapers (which is awesome), but we used huggies & pampers with good…
  • I know what you mean!! I feel like I'm working my butt off and not seeing hardly any movement on the scale. However, I notice that I feel a lot stronger, and my muscle tone is really increasing! So, I try to keep motivated by taking my measurements (but not to often!) and looking at the difference in my before/after…

  • Anyone can feel free to add me as well! I'm struggling to lose the weight I wanted to lose before my son was born 6 years ago... I was down about 25lbs when I got pregnant with my twin boys! Now, they are 7 mos old and I have 20-25lbs still to go! :)
  • That's so awesome! Congrats on your success!
  • I just completed day 14, which was a much needed rest day! So far, I'm down 2lbs & 1" around my waist!

  • Today is day 14 for me & a rest day! Which I needed after yesterday's workout - CardioXT/Ult. Abs!
  • That's awesome! :) Congrats on hitting day 50! So far, I've lost 2 lbs by day 10 ! Yay! I did the plyo xt video for the 2nd time today and I've already noticed a big difference in my endurance!
  • I know what you mean! The soreness has lessened for me (I just finished day 9 today), but I'm still fairly sore! I wished I would have exercised somewhat on my rest day - I felt very sluggish that whole day. I might add some walking on my rest day next time to see if that would help too. Yeah, I haven't noticed a lot of…
  • Yes, I had thought that and was looking forward to day 10 (which is on Tuesday) when I will retake my measurements to see how I've done so far. Also, I'll probably look over my meals that I've been eating to see where I can add more fruits/veg / protein. I tend to eat the same things so maybe I need to just "mix it up"…
  • I started back to exercise at the 6 wk mark, but really I feel I should have waited a few weeks longer until my bleeding fully stopped (I had twins!). It was really difficult at first when I started exercising and core work was horrible (crunches hurt)! But, slowly I was able to do more & more. Talk w/ your doctor about…
  • Hi Erin! Thank you for the encouragement! And, wow you guys are doing awesome! Can't wait to see your before/after pics! Did you stick with the meal plan? I thought my calorie levels were okay, so I have been doing my own calorie count, but I've only lost like a pound in the first week... Any thoughts?
  • Hi! I am new to the site as well! I've been using MFP for a while, but had to take a break last year when I became pregnant with twins! Now the twins are 6 mos old and I've been trying to get back into the "groove." While I lost all of my pregnancy weight rather quickly, I have found it to be a challenge to keep it off or…
  • Hi Laura! Good luck to you on your weightloss goals! I also have about 20lbs to lose. I recently gave birth to twin boys (they are 2mos now), and want to pick up where I left off before I became pregant. I have already lost what I gained in my pregancy, which is awesome! Best of luck to you! Cyn
