Losing Weight After Pregnancy Archives

Losing weight after a pregnancy?

I had my son 7 months ago and dropped the weight right away.
But I knew it had came back -- and just today I stepped on the scale and I know weight what I did at about 7 or 8 months pregnant :(

So I am curious how busy stay at home moms find time or what they do to work out!
THANKS

Is losing weight during pregnancy ok?

I am 11 weeks pregnant. I started at 147lbs, two weeks ago when I went to the doctor i was up to 151, but this entire week i have had a cold and I can't keep anything but bread and applesauce down. I can't take my vitamins or my hormone pills because they just come right back up and I right away. I have lost all the weight that I gained and now I am a little worried. Should i be or am i just being a worrywart?

Ugh. This is soo complicated.

I have a 3 month old son and with it being winter and turning to spring its still too cold out to take my son out for me to exercise. My son needs my full attention!!! What is the best ways to lose weight without leaving the house. I would go to one of the workout places but I cant afford them. What foods and excersizes can I do at home and how much and many should I do.

losing weight post-pregnancy?

first, i want to inform you before i start that i have hypothyroidism and my main concern is if i even CAN lose the baby weight after pregnancy...

I've asked this question before but nobody has responded with anything helpful. i'm hoping this time will be different..

i'm 27 weeks pregnant today and i've gained 17 lbs so far. i'm eating as healthy as i can with an occasional indulgence in a brownie or whatever, and i exercise 3 times a week.

anyways. i know its like impossible for me to lose weight with this thyroid condition, because before i got pregnant i was working out and seriously dieting and actually gained weight. my biggest worry is that im never going to look good again and im nervous about it. any help with this issue is greatly appreciated!

(also, i'd like to mention that i am on prescribed medication for the condition and my levels are closely monitored, if that information is helpful at all)

I was not overweight pre-pregnancy, but I did weigh about 12 lb more than I usually like to weigh. This is due to some medication that I was taking at the time.
Anyway, I am 27 weeks today and I have gained around 15 lb so far. I really want to lose all the pregnancy weight + the extra that I had before I got pregnant.... and it's really getting me down that I'm probably not going to be able to manage this...

The reason I want to lose the other 12 lb aswell is because I am 5ft3 so weight shows up really well on my body lol!!

So, I am finding it hard to enjoy the pregnancy because I am so worried about losing weight after. I don't starve myself, I do get cravings for chocolate, and I fulfil those cravings otherwise I just go madddddddd thinking about it, but I don't over indulge.

So.... after all of that... I guess I am looking for some success stories to help motivate me. I want to stop worrying and enjoy the life growing inside of me instead of CONSTANTLY thinking about how big I'm getting.
Am not the one giving thumbs downs... I appreciate all your answers. Expect the idiot chubby whats his face - i did give u a thumbs down cos your answer is stupid

My sister in law delivered a baby on Sept 25th and she already looks awesome! She hadn't put on much weight in the first place but she looks better than she did before, and her skin is more beautiful than ever!!! She had a C-Section, i thought after a C section it takes more time to get back into shape, all it took her was a month! She doesn't even exercise! Does it happen with everyone? the skin and weight I mean? I wish I would be as lucky as her, 'cos right now i look like a stupid ugly buffalo :-( But well i guess it's all worth it, 'cos I'll have my little baby with me in 14 weeks :-) but seriously how long does it really take to lose all that weight? I am 25 weeks today and have put on 13 lbs already!!!

Losing weight after pregnancy?

Besides breastfeeding, because I've tried everything to increase my milk and I barely get 2 oz total after pumping 4-5 times a day.

I've been told to be patient, but I'd really like to fast-track the process. I currently excercise 3 times a week for an hour or so (20 mins body combat or dance aerobics followed by weightlifting, low weights high reps, situps and pushups). I started this a month ago but i've only lost a kg and i still have unhealthy fat all over me.

I try to eat pretty healthy, but since I'm trying to increase milk, I can't decrease meals or take chinese meds for weight loss.

What worked for you?

Unable to lose weight after pregnancy…?

I had my son a month ago, have been breastfeeding the whole time, and have had some excercise and I haven't been pigging out. Why is the weight not coming off?

im scared that after i have my baby i wont
lose weight...im scared to look
fat i still want my boyfriend to tell me that he likes
my body..i still want him to find me attractive

I gained a LOT of weight during my pregnancy do to being on bedrest on and off and probably not eating as well as I could of. I have lost 40lbs so far in the past 3 month and I have 25 more to go. I only have time to workout for a half hour right now and go for walks when the weather is permitting. I'll be honest, I am not very good at putting together a healthy diet and workout plan (I just don't know what workout or foods would be best to promote weight loss).Any personal suggestions/experiences would be appreciated!

Before I got pregnant my body was a pear, which means I had bigger hips than bust. After pregnancy I've tried too hard to lose wight and now my bust has disappeared. Will I get my old shape or I will stay like this forever?

I was very skinny and toned before getting pregnant, (about 110 lbs) but I've gained about 45 lbs during pregnancy I'm only 5'1'' so now I look terrible, extra flabby skin everywhere!!! I lost 20 lbs in the first 3 weeks right after my baby was born, but it's been 3 more weeks since then and i haven't lost a pound. Will I EVER be that skinny again? Do I need to go on a strict diet and exercise like crazy to get my abs back or I'm being too paranoid and all I need it's time?

Im 23 weeks and Ive already gained 18lbs so far so I know Im going to be a porker by the the time I finally give birth. Ive heard that breastfeeding helps with the weightloss, is this true?

If so, is there anyway I can just pump the milk and give it to the baby without actually having to breastfeed. Im not really looking to actually breastfeed and having to ween the baby. Ive seen women breastfeeding big kids and I dont think thats quite cool. I believe if the kid is old enough to ask for the breast, they are too old to be be breastfed.

Any other good weight loss tips for after pregnancy are appreciated. Im thinking about taking a cruise in November and I want to make sure my body looks hot by then. Im due in June

Gaining weight after the birth of your child ?

Ok so most people lose weight after pregnancy but has anyone of you actually gained weight after giving birth ? Ive lost 40 pounds in the first couple of weeks, probably water retention but now I find myself gaining weight :o ( is this normal ?
