This baby weight......
WONT COME OFF!!! I'm having such a hard time getting the 15lbs that I really need to shead off!(I know its like a year already)but I'm eating healthy trying to cut out more carbs here and there, but I really need to get my @ss on that elliptical (no modivation) I just feel so blaaaa lately, I look at old pics of how I use to look and it just puts me in such a depressed mood. I know we have the workout thread, but that sorry to say isn't helping. I was even trying to get my DH to have a contest with me to see who can loose the most weight 
I feel like I'm not taking care of myself anymore, my mind is just on Julia 24/7 like it should be, but I need my mommy time! Sorry for the vent, I'm starting to feel like country girl Brittany lately!
I also have a wedding the end of July.

It's really hard, ITA! Maybe you need something structured, like Weight Watchers? I used WW online to lose most of my pg weight and it really helped, since it's online and you don't have to attend meetings in person.

Re: This baby weight......
Yeah I tried WW but it wasn't for me, It was so annoying to write down everything I ate then add up the points, I would forget sometimes then get all off track. Some of the foods I ate weren't in the book, so I would forget to write it down, it was a mess!

Re: This baby weight......
Maybe getting out more with Julia...walking with her on the boardwalk!! Do you have time to go to the gym at all and have your DH watch her?

Yes, I'm always walking with her, we walk all over but I feel its more diet with me, I love carbs!!! Ever since I had Julia its been a struggle with me to get this weight off, I wasnt able to diet that much with BF her, so now the shes on whole milk I can start, its just so hard to stop eating the food we love!
DH just got me an Elliptical so he will flip if I stop using that and ask for more money for the gym!

Re: This baby weight......
Tell me about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am working out now more than I ever have IN MY LIFE and I just can't get rid of the last 5-7 pounds!!!!
I rarely snack, try to eat right (just cheat on the weekends a bit), don't know what else to do!
My hips are just wider, my shape is just overall different since giving birth, it is so depressing.
I'm with ya Mama!

I know...I love carbs too...I could eat a whole loaf of bread. Wow, you have an elliptical??? I would die to have one of those things in my home!! Get on that thing girl!! Hang your cutest bathing suit in front of it to motivate yourself. At least an hour a day would be perfect. I know it's tough...

Re: This baby weight......
I totally know how you feel I've been working my *** off to lose the 5 pg lbs I have left and so far I've only lost 2.  I've never worked out this hard in my life. In addition to the pg weight my body is just not the same anymore and honestly I'm afraid that it will never go back

Re: This baby weight......
I think we all can relate. I have never been a dieter and I have a very big appetite and no will power so dieting doesnt work for me at all. I also have an elliptical and what I've been doing is waking up early and saying I am going to do at least 10 minutes and then I play mind games with myself to keep going so that I at least do 20 minutes a day. Its not much at all and not enough to lose any weight but I feel like I did something so I am not as depressed as I was. The key is finding something that works for you.
I know for me I do better with other people. I like classes at gyms but I cant afford to join a gym just for classes that I will hardly ever make.

Re: This baby weight......
Here's a quick easy way to tone your thighs in a matter of weeks...everytime you walk to the fridge do it with lunges. I'm serious. You will start to see definition in your thighs in about a week.

Re: This baby weight......
I just joined Nutrisystem. I was going to do the Zone but it was more expensive and I heard the food isn't that good. This is my first week and I've already lost 3 lbs (since Tuesday).
My DD is 9 months old and I'm really depressed over the fact that I have 20 lbs to lose to get to my PP weight.
