always eat breakfast, try to within 20 minutes of getting up? I usually have plain cheerios with skim milk or oatmeal or cream of wheat, something that s healthy. I didn t like to eat any of these for breakfast before but after a few weeks of eating it, I actually am craving it in the mornings.
drink water, eat less fatty foods exercise regularly.
Give yourself time, your body goes through hell when you re preganant, sometimes it just takes a while for the last bit of weight to come off. You sound like you re doing everything you should be, exercise and healthy eating (I hate the word diet coz it makes me wanna pig out . Give yourself a break and the weight will come off.
Let me know when you do it cause I m still not there 3 years later!
How tall are you? You size may be already fine depending on your height. Keep yogurt or at least calcium in your diet. I don t know why, but Calcium seems to help the weight loss problem. That s how I did it after my second child. Also, DO NOT Skip breakfast. It will slow down your body, because your body will think it is in sleep node still...without that breakfast boost in the morning.
Be patient. The diet and excersise will work but you need to keep it up. If you get discouraged that the weights not dropping fast enough, you may want to quit. Thats the big mistake alot of people make. You just have to have patience. Hope I helped. Mike, Former USMC
Be patient - my rule is it took nine months to go on - expect nine months for it to come off! How old is your little one? Is he/she breastfeeding? Eat healthy, regular meals and keep moving, drink lots of water and make sure you are well rested (well as much as you can being mum to a newborn!) - one thing that really makes me cut back is writing down every single thing i put in my mouth, it makes me think twice believe me!
think yourself lucky you are nt bigger, did you think you would be a 10 for ever. Anyway once your baby gets to toddler stage exercise happens without you even thinking about it.
Edit this post with what you ate yesterday. Be honest, i m sure we ll be able to see something your doing wrong. Also what sort of exercise are you doing?There is method of dividing your weekly calories by 7 and then having a very high calorie day a few normal and a few below days. This way your body wont think its on a diet and will not hold onto its fat reserves. When on a diet for a long time the body can think that there is not enough food and store fat, this is from cave man days when this reflex was needed to survive winter
1) your body needs time to adapt that you are no longer pregnant!2) when you execise to much the fat wont be burned off it will be still there but as musclestructure. so if you give your body a rest for lets say about 4 weeks and you eat healthy food as well as using good cooking oil then you will see that you will lose the last stone in a couple of weeks.. some vitamines need oil (fat) to be used for its purpose .. if u leave out oil(fat) completely you harm your body ...lack of vitaminescheck the local weightwatchers website.!
all women worry,you lose it (what a stone)
I have had 3 children - after my first, I lost all the baby weight and more! After babies 2 3 I am still stuck. I am 10 kilograms heavier than I should be and it is the most depressing thing ever - I feel your pain hun and if I had the answers, I would share them!!! I really dont know if one can ever be the way they were after having had children, sorry hun :(
The only effective way to lose weight is to eat less and exercise more. (No fun!)
