I just had a baby and I need to lose about 60lbs. I was overweight before the pregnancy, so its not like it will come off very easy. I think it is starting to affect my marriage because I am becoming very insecure, and I am blaming my husband. Any tips!!

I just started weight watchers back in march and i have lost 41 pounds. I tried everything before and nothing worked. I was so surprised by how easy it was and how i am never hungry. I love it! I was skeptical at first because i have tried everything but it works. I was going thought the same thing with my husband. He wasn’t saying anything to me about my weight or anything but i was getting so self conscious and it was ruining our sex life. Really try weight watchers it is cheap and it really works. You will not regret it. Good luck.

The best advice I can give you is to eat six small meals per day, so you never feel hungry and don’t overeat. Also, since you just had a baby, I assume you have a stroller. Take him out for long walks and walk for at least an hour each day. Try to change your pace. The first 10 minutes of warm-up just walk at a normal pace, but after that walk as fast as you can for 5 minutes. Do this at intervals and you’ll burn more calories. Drink enough water (8 8oz. glasses per day) also. I know you can do it, just put your mind to it. Be patient with yourself and remember that to be sexy and flirtatious you don’t need to be a size zero. So smile and flirt with you husband even if you feel uncomfortable with yourself right now. Men are also aroused by attitude. Use that -attitude- for now. Soon, you’ll be using "other" resources. You can do it!
my sis lost over 100 pound on weight watchers 2 years ago and has kept it off.
Low Carb – the weight comes off and you aren’t hungry. Also, exercise and drink plenty of fluids.
I just lost 40 lbs in the past 4 months… I’m 6′ tall and now weight in at 142 lbs which is small for my height…
Here is what I did… brisk walk in the morning. I used an eliptical. I ate NO FRIED FOOD, high protein (brown rice and black beans, fresh vegi’s), lots of water. No soda, no fast food, very little junk food (we’re women, what do you want… just give us a cookie here and there, right?). And here is the good part… SEX BURNS CALORIES… tell your husband your willing to burn off as many as you can a day…. if he is willing to help!
You must lose the weight…your children will be motherless if you don’t. If that doesn’t scare you into joining a gym and sticking with it…need I mention, diabetes, heart problems, blood pressure, cholesterol, etc., etc.? Heck, you don’t even need to join a gym. Walk three miles per day pushing that stroller, wind, rain or shine…and step away from the frig…you aren’t feeding for two anymore. You know how to do it…don’t you…you’ve tried everything right? There’s only one word that has any meaning in trying to lose weight….COMMITMENT.
Fist of all, congratulation to your baby.
I am sure you know, that after the pregnancy your body has still more water and fat stored, than in your normal times. On top of that, your hormone level is still off kilter. That takes a couple of month.
Watch out, what you eat. Stay away from fat, read the labels. it is amazing how much fat is in one tiny wiener. Try to eat not more than 30 % fat, per day, less if possible. One gram fat has 9 calories, carbs and protein only 4.
And on top of that, exercise, walk, walk, walk. It is healthy, and cheap, and you can take your baby with you in a stroller.
Have fun!! I bet, your hubby is not getting younger either. Don’t try to be picture perfect. Nobody is.
remember that you need to exercise and sex is a good way to do that along with walking and working with one of those balls. start eating 5 meals a day or 6. I also cut out any starches and have gone to whole grain pasta and bread. also another thing i do is i use a smaller plate and eat everything on it and it makes me feel full. i also eat alot of fruits and vegetables and eat a salad atleast once a day.
weight watchers i have the same problem i have been their for a month and have lost 8 pounds…slow is better you will keep it off. good luck
