K8G's Post Pregnancy Weight Loss

My name is Kate and I have a beautiful 16 week old son called Danny.

In the past I've had much success on SW (3 stone loss) and also had success on WW.

I'm 5ft 3in and currently weigh 11st 4lbs. My favourite weight is 9st 2lbs, although this is difficult to maintain. I'm aiming for 9st 5lbs but would be happy with 9st 7lbs.

Hi K8G,

Good luck with your weight loss post baby Danny! I am very much in the same situation, though a few stone heavier. I lost 2 stone within 3 weeks of my daughter's birth and have lost another 16lbs since the start of January. It's so difficult to try and eat well rather than grab something quick when they demand all your attention isn't it!?
 
Thanks Sarah1984

Congratulations on the birth of your baby girl and your fab weight loss so far.

Danny is a very easy baby so I feel like I just eat sometimes because I'm in the house thinking about food. Plus there's the nightly glass of wine because I deserve it :confused::confused::confused:

I can't wait to plan my meals and stick to them:)
 
I've not lost this week, although not gained either. Starting properly on Monday and have already told my work colleagues so am going to have to stick to it :eek:
 
Well....SW has started. So far I've not had anything interesting. I don't eat breakfast (which I should) and have just had a prawn salad for lunch both days. Last night I had sausages (SW ones from a local butcher) they are 1/2 syn for 3 sausages and had a mix of roasted casserole veg and some mash. Probably would class that as an EE day. My HExA was milk in my coffee and I didn't have a HExB:eek:
 
Goal update:

To buy 'Free Branded Food Book' :party0049: Done

To create a 1 week menu from handy canned and easy to prepare meals :cry: Not yet :sigh:
 
Hi, I just started my post baby diet yesterday! With my other two kids all the weight fell off within them turning 3 months, but this time I have not lost a pound and my baby is half a year now, so I am going to have to make a concerted effort.

I am doing Slim Fast for a little bit to kick start my diet (I started a diary in the SF forum), but then I will use healthy eating/exercise.

Well done on starting the SF diet. I hope it gives you the boost you need to continue with it. I can't wait to get back to my original weight. Although I'm not beating myself up because it's only been 18 weeks since I gave birth. I'll go and check your diary out too :)
 
Well I had another WI this morning and have lost another 2lbs. That's 3lb in 3 days:D

Can't wait for the weight loss to continue.
 
That is brilliant, but don't get disheartened if it fluctuates a little. I am trying to resist weighing myself too frequently, but finding it hard, lol!
 
I've decided to get weighed twice a week, Monday & Thursday. Today I had lost another lb so am now 10st 13lbs :) I'd like to loose another 2lb by Thursday but that's just being greedy!

DH and I have just booked to take our 19 week old baby on his first holiday. We are going to a local Haven site for a long weekend on Friday. Can't wait. I've planned to have a pre-made lasagne on Friday night as a treat and will be good the other days. I may make some syn free chips to go with it ;)
 
That's so funny, I was just thinking about getting weighed twice a week!

Holiday sounds like just what I need - enjoy!
 
Looking forward to WI tomorrow. I'm hoping I've lost at least 1lb but 2lb would be fantastic :):) I've stuck really carefully to my diet and can feel a difference.

While the weight is coming off well Emma I'm doing WI twice a week. It's good motivation on a Thursday morning for the weekend, and then again on Monday morning for the week ahead.

Can't wait for my :character00238::airplane: (holiday). Not that it's very exciting and certainly not as fancy as the above picture makes out! Probably no sunshine, and definitely no flying. But what's wrong with a Haven site in England anyway-not too shabby for me:talk017:
 
I lost 1lb today :bliss:

Hoping I will loose another 2lbs by next week
 
Well done on your pound off - I assume you will be logging on soon to report another loss!?!

I may join you in the Thursday weigh-ins - 7 days between each is a bit too long!
 
Another 2lb off:) even though I was on holiday and had alcohol. Still stuck to the diet and now I'm pleased I did.

The holiday was great, albeit tiring. Danny (who is now 20 weeks) loved it. He watched all the children playing and loved being out in the fresh air.
 
Well done for sticking to your diet on holiday! Those 2 lbs off are well deserved!
 
It's weigh in day tomorrow. Can't wait to see what the scales say-i've been really good:innocent0002:
 
Hi Kate,

thought I'd drop by and see how you are. You are doing really well, congratulations!
