Shameless weight loss after third baby post lol
So please forgive my "bragging" because that's really not me but I'm just so excited and I don't want to post on fb just yet since I haven't reached my goal but so far I have lost 44lbs since i gave birth to my third dd in june.....I am officially one lb less than I was before I had her and I am now onto losing another 12lbs to be my weight before I had my very first dd!!! I'm so motivated and I really am hoping I don't plateau before reaching my ultimate goal
Pls post here any weight loss progress of your own so we can motivate each other!!!

Great job!! I am stuck in those last 10 lbs. I will lose 5 and gain back 3. I know what I need to do but I feel like sometimes I just get caught up in my own mind tricks. Good luck!

Thanks everyone!!!! Please continue to post all your weight loss progress, I find that it helps to hear others to keep me going down the right path to my own goal!!!
As for my secret, its Jenny Craig food for a month and then I continued with their calorie counting after their food ran out....I usually do weight watchers but honestly I needed the strictness of the food portions and convenience of the already prepared foods first before going out on my own counting calories and portioning things myself .....im totally a ww girl but I cant deny that Jenny Craig works ...although stupidly expensive if u can do one month only of it it helps to jump start your metabolism and focus on portion size which is my biggest problem

Re: Shameless weight loss after third baby post lol
That is awesome! My ds is 7 weeks and I have not lost a pound yet except for the initial weight that comes off. I need to lose 25 pounds to get to pre-pregnancy weight. Love inspiring stories makes me feel energized to lose my own.

Re: Shameless weight loss after third baby post lol
Congrats!!!! That is awesome and it's so great to "see" you on here!
It's so hard to lose the weight, I have to admit! I go on and off of WW for years now....currently off, plan to go on again next week when school starts.
Can you tell me about Jenny Craig? How does it work? How is it different from WW?
You deserve the applause, it's so darn hard!!!

hey how ya doing?!!!!!! thanks!!!! yes i always used ww and like you i was always on and off again with it but it definitely works when u stick to it which right after my pregnancies i found i wasn't able to do....Jenny Craig is crazy pricey!!!....but it works....you pick out your foods with a consultant on the phone....you can get your food weekly or monthly (if you have freezer room of course)....its breakfast along with a glass of milk and a fruit...snack (which is a glass of milk and an anytime bar which is like a protein bar if you dont want to do that you can take a multivitamin and have a cheese stick or yogurt or cottage cheese etc) ..lunch..snack (a fruit)...dinner and one of their snacks.....you need to eat veggies with lunch and dinner....and of course drink lots of water....once youre off of their foods its counting calories....which is very similar to ww....but whats different is you stick to one snack a day....and the rest of the day you can have fruits for snacks and i have also continued to drink the milk with my breakfast and have veggies (salads) with my lunch and dinner....its so close to ww but like i said the only thing that i found necessary for me is that the portion size is trained while eating their food so when you finally get to eating regular food portion size isnt difficult to adjust to at all....while youre on their food a counselor calls you once a wk to talk to you about how youre doing, record any weight loss and keep you motivated its like a 15min call
i have been dieting i swear my whole life lol.... i did the south beach diet once which i didnt like at all (not healthy) and then ww on and off for years like i said....and after my second child and now after my third jenny craig and i have to say if u can its a good way of going if u need strictness to follow through and stay focused

Re: Shameless weight loss after third baby post lol
I had DC3 last April and I lost all my baby weight plus 11 lbs. I am 1 lb thinner than my wedding day. I feel great about it because this is my last kid and I feel "myself" again.
Congrats to everyone!

Re: Shameless weight loss after third baby post lol
good for you!!!! keep it up!!!
I gained 52lbs when I was pregnant and lost it all plus an extra ten once I stopped working (i'm a SAHM now-DD is 2)
I lost a total of 62 lbs!!!!
I did a 6 week intense bootcamp when I got the green light from the dr to work out-and before I went back to work...and then just kept a low calorie diet.-shake for bfast, light lunch, and then a reg dinner. drank mostly water-no coffee or sugar drinks-and no snacks.
(i stopped working out but need to get back into it pronto!)

Re: Shameless weight loss after third baby post lol
awesome job Jen!!!!! I'm 3 weeks out and 8 pds from pre-pregnancy....but I think the only reason I lost that much is a) b/c I'm nursing and b) b/c I already had a stricter diet that I started pre-pregnancy (no gluten, dairy etc), although I find myself making more allowances, but then I feel crappy (headaches) so it reminds me why I need to stay away from certain foods! I have to give you a call to go over your sleep routine secrets!

Shameless weight loss after third baby post lol
That's great! After having my third baby in less than 2 years, I am finally back to my pre fertility treatment weight when i got pregnant with the twins over 3 years ago. I had bought so many new clothes, mostly pants, right before i started fertility and after a couple of weeks on meds i couldn't wear them anymore. They were too tight. I tried them on for the fist time this weekend because i was going shopping for a new fall/winter wardrobe and they all fit me perfectly!!! I didn't have to buy any new pants and can officially wear the brand new work pants i had packed away for 3 years :) I need to do some strength training to tone up but the weight is gone thanks to weight watchers!
