I think I ‘m getting fatter instead of slimmer.
I am eating ok, not great but I haven’t been exercising at all. I’m simply not making time for it.

How I did it: I teamed up with a great online trainer (I am deployed) and began a healthy diet and workout routine. I also am a member of bodybuilding.com and that helped a lot. Read how I did it…
dragonfly35 is super proud of the progress all her 43T friends are making!
How I did it: I started taking the stairs every day instead of the elevator. I also started walking an additional 20- 45 minutes after work before getting on the bus, and I started walking to more places instead of taking the bus or driving. Once I was feeling more fit, I started running again. Now I'm up to three miles about three times a week. Usually I get up early in the morning to exercise because if I leave it until the ev… Read how I did it…
wldunn13 life is its own biggest irony.
How I did it: At close to 280 lbs, it was time to take control. I got the book, and read the first couple of chapters. Armed with the great information contained within, I was ready to start.I followed the diet to the letter. Honestly, I thought I would be miserable, but I never once felt starved or otherwise uncomfortable. Now, almost 7 months later, I am closing the gap to 200. This has completely changed every aspe… Read how I did it…

I have a waist again. ;) and I think maybe, just maybe I see some stomach muscles somewhere under this pudge.
All the moms keep commenting on how quickly I’m losing my stomach and seem to imply that I’m being unhealthy. I’ve always popped back into shape very quickly and am naturally a small woman. I was worried it wouldn’t be as easy this time and suspect I’ll struggle with the last few pounds but I am being healthy, certainly not obsessing on losing weight. I eat as well as I can. But man, it feels good, a few more weeks and I may even feel….sexy. For noone but myself but I suppose that’s enough for now. I wish women were a bit more supportive and realize that people’s metabolisms are different and understand that it is hugely helpful for me to feel attractive at this time in my life. Esp, J’s mom, I wanna say, ok, I’m skinny but you are 24, have beautiful smile, great skin and big boobs, I envy you!

since giving birth. I’d like to lose nearly 20 more.

ice cream, soda…not a good start. No matter, I know how to make good eating choices and will but I have quite a good appetite. Probably due to extra calories involved with nursing as well as having more room in my stomach now that baby isn’t taking up all the room.
I am in some pre pregnant jeans today. Granted they sit very low on my hips and I still have a sizeable pooch but it still feels nice. I seemed to have only lost about 10 lbs by giving birth but my stomach looks much smaller

when and how much to do how soon but I suspect that I’m off to a good start at least being up and about with the kids…working but not working out and not stressing myself too much to do so. Also nursing helps the uterus to shrink back to size more quickly. Gradually start incorporating yoga and some aerobic/toning stuff. I will have to…it won’t just disappear as it did with the other two, I suspect, given my age and the fact that I was developing a little pooch prior to getting pregnant.
Yoga and stretching will feel so good. I bet I can start some easy stretches right away as I slacked on the pregnancy yoga for some reason…I can fit some in during the day hopefully.
Also what better excuse for taking walks than not having a vehicle?? ha. Nice mild weather approaching for taking the stroller.

I feel my progess has slowed a bit, but I try to work out somewhat each day. I am working my core fairly well, but I really want to find someone to work with consistently so I can continue to advance.
I would like to be down another 20-25 pounds by Christmas.
I think stress is/was the biggest obstacle to my progress, and I think I need to work on managing my stress and happiness much more.
Let’s just hope no more exes move down the block. :)
Today I took a multi-vitamin, changed my diet and did 11 push-ups. Wednesday, I’m signing up at a local gym. I’m a bad-ass. It was probably the multi-vitamin.
