Post baby weight loss

Have I lost weight? Pic included

Who's losing weight and breastfeeding?
I initially lost about 7kg and have 15kg to get to my goal weight of 65kg. I've been watching going hard the last 4 weeks eating 1500, my BMR is 2300 with exercise 7 days a week. My fitbit has my TDEE as 3000ish so I should have lost a kg a week with the exercise and deficit combined but I did a weigh in 4 weeks since…

Scale not moving
I am not looking for a solution as much, but encouragement From september/October I was losing almost 1kg a week , I lost 6kg in 6 weeks and then I got to November and the scale hasnt moved at all. Its remained at 69-70kg and I'm 100% sure I'm not over eating so its disappointing its almost been a whole month eating 1200…

Will it slow down now?
I hit my small goal of 70kg around1st Nov, my next goal was to go 65kg. I'm 163cm and I wondered because I'm 4kg away from a healthy bmi (high end of it) will my weight loss be slower and harder to do? I was easily losing 1kg a week for 6 weeks at 1500 and burning 300 in excersise roughly not eating it back It's been 21…

Anyone change goal weight?
Pretty much been fantasizing about being 65kg being the last weight I remember being before i got pregnant with my 1st but not I'm not so sure i was that weight at all . I was really slim but 4 pregnancies and bad food choices lead me to be 96kg , I'm now 70kg and thought I'd be so happy being 5kg away from that goal but…

Is 1200 OK for breast feeding?
My baby is 2m old, I am sick of being overweight and want to lose this weight once and for all (weight crept up over 9yrs since my 1st baby) I exclusively breast feed her every 2-3 hours and my maintenance is 1900 for my current weight so I can't imagine eating more than 2000 like I am supposed to according to all the…

Pregnancy maintenance
I don't know where to post this, I am 27w pregnant and I was not at my goal weight when I fell pregnant. My hospital has a bmi limit and I'm currently 35 I think and the limit is 40. I would be completely depressed if I had to get transferred to another hospital because I'm huge. My weight at 22w was 85kg then 2w later at…

Pregnancy calories
So I am 5w pg, I stared my weight loss journey on new year and to this date lost 15kg so I now weigh 82kg of course I'd like to lose more safely in the 1st trimester but I'll settle for maintaining. How do I work out my calorie limit for pregnancy or is it the same?

I don't believe it..
From 1St Jan I've cut my calories to 1200 sometimes over a little but mostly meeting. I've used the same scale and it tells me I've lost 9kg since I 1st recorded my weight. I don't see 9kg worth of weight off of me so I'm in a bit of disbelief. So weird
-
Fasting good idea?
Today I went over my limit by 500 calories and I feel like a pig. It was only 1 meal that was giant but it was a family thing so I thought I'd relax a bit. I just tried jogging and it was a stop start for 10 minutes, then was so exhausted so forced myself 30 minutes back to my house. But still have plenty calories still…

Fat arms
I hate my upper arms they are so big. Can I do anything to lose weight there sooner? I hear you can't spot reduce but hope it's not true. I have roughly 25-30kg to lose overall

I feel like I should be doing more
I recently looked at some photos of me in 2013/2014 and I thought I was really obese and I was only 10kg overweight. Now I'm 25-30kg overweight it's made me depressed. I'm doing everything right foodwise and an hour excersise 6 days a week. I want to lose faster than 1lb a week that feels like forever away. Just feeling a…

Bad breath- anyone?
It has become hard to avoid being close to people so they don't smell my breath it's awful. I brush my teeth mouthwash it makes no change. Is this weight loss related? Going to be getting some breath mints...

2weeks feels like months
I've been mfp-ing for 2 weeks now and it actually feels like a month or more has passed. I've lost 2kg in the 2 weeks but it only showed up yesterday on the scales I was so shocked. The loss is motivation to keep going and go month by month for mini goals. 23kg to go! Keep on keeping on guys!

Do you feel weight loss? TMI warning
Since the beginning of the month when I started on the journey my flabby tummy at the top twinges and stuff. It's either weight loss *fingers crossed* or my body's weird changed since I've just stopped breast feeding and my milk is drying up possibly getting ready for my 1St menstrual cycle for over a year. Though can you…

Do I trust this days log?
I bought scales today so everything matches to the packets and weights very on spot but it is hard to believe that today's log can be real I feel like I ate heaps. Pretty sure my diary is open for public if you'd check... I somehow don't trust the log

Can I log HIIT?
I can't find an option anywhere. I did 20 minute stationary bike workout.

I quit
If I don't see any change whether on the scale or in the mirror by the 1St of Feb I am going to quit.... I've been logging and cutting down for 10 days and there's no difference in fact my weight is all over the place. I know I shouldn't expect too much but just a little something by now. It's so depressing (Not sure if…

What are you proud of so far?
Thought it would be good to focus on the good things to distract from discouragement.. I've been cutting back for 10 days now and I haven't seen anything but 10 days ago I would easily drink 1L of soft drink and eat packets full of sweets. My portions we're probably 3x what I have now and I haven't fallen . So that's 1 big…

Is it possible to lose weight with out MFP
I see everyones success with logging their intake and weighing etc it seems like there's no way to lose weight without tracking every single thing that goes in your mouth. I've been going for 9 days logged 7 of them... No difference in weight and I try my best to log accurately... What on earth did people do without an app…
