Feeling low about weight :( help! (also in baby)
Hello ladies.
As title says really, im feeling so low about my weight/body after having 2 children. i was lucky in both pregancies to actually have lost weight by the time id given birth but both times ive ut it on and more
Im now 2 stone heavier since having my daughter in december and my weight seems to be balooning. i have no energy and look like s**t in all my clothes. im so desperate to lose weight but find it so difficult. ive tried weight watchers and its not for me, there is just too much choice and i get carried away.
anyone else feel the same or also need to lose weight?
any diet recommendations?

Hubby is in the process of losing weight (has lost over 21lb in 3 months so far!) and has done so by cutting down portion size & watching what he eats (a lot less cr@p!), and walking more. It has been difficult, but every time he's lost 9lb-ish, he treats himself to something he hasn't had (curry/take-away). Maybe you could try a new top or something similar?
I was very lucky that I didn't gain much weight with Poppy, but doubt I'll be so lucky this time around! Good luck with it, I know through hubby how hard it is (but worth it).xx
i lost 2 stone before getting married with slimming world too and with the new plan its like eating normally!
really worth looking into if your interested.
please dont be down about your weight you have lots to be happy for (ps when you do look at my photos bear in mind i havent always stuck to it!lol)
good ;luck x
i keep saying ill start walking more but the car jsut stares at me lol!
wish i could jsut click my fingers!xx
I just saw the post over on baby about the cambridge diet, were you thinking of trying it? I think that I need a good kick start but I don't know how? I saw a work colleague the other day and he had lost about 1.5 stone in 2 months doing the 'hay diet' which he said was all about not mixing carbs and protein.
Flimpo I think a BIJ weight loss club would be a good thing. I found it very encouraging when I was going to ww to go to meetings/weigh-ins every week but I just don't have time now with the baby and school runs and working.
i put on a lot of weight during my pregnancy which has resulted in non of my pre clothes fitting, i am no good with diets so its exercise for me, i go to zumba which i love, i could probably do with doing more than an hour a week but i just cant fit it in and TBH cant be arsed! i havent lost much weight scales wise but i am getting some shape back,
i also just want to say i think your are GORGEOUS
Is there any exercise classes in your area you could go to in the evenings? Maybe the goal of a wedding dress could be a motivation to eat healthy
But anyway I agree with PP you're gorgeous x x
yes defo as soon as that ring is on my finger i will be working my butt of to get slim as i would be devestated to to get married the way i am now! just need him to hurry up and do it hehehe!!!!
i also think we shud defo set up a BIJ weight loss club! i am considering the cambridge diet just need to get the motivation and diet head on!
