Hello Ladies,
I was just reading around on this site and wanted to post. I am READY to lose the weight. I just dont know where to start. I am a 29 year old mother of 2. I just had a baby boy last sept. and gained 70 pounds wth my pregnancy. I dod have some serious heart problems and 8 days after my delivery was hospitalized and the drined 35 pounds of fluid off of my heart and lungs. I currently weigh about 182-185 pounds. I seem to fluctuate depending on the time of month. I would like to be about 140 so I need to lose about 45 pounds. My husband was just deployed to Iraq last friday and he will be gone a year. So... I MUST lose this weight. I have to look and feel great about myself. Also as I am sure alot of you feel, summer time is harder when you arent feeling good about yourself , I want to wear shorts and a bathing suit and feel confident and I feel horrible. My doctor suggested LA Weight loss or Weight Watchers. He also suggested The South Beach diet, but one problem I have had all of my life is I HATE vegetables. Im not much of a meat eater either. I guess I will have to force myself to eat heathier and eventually I will learn to like these things. What diet plan has seemed to work the best for you? I was going to the gym 3 times a week and areobics 3 times a week, but I got frustrated when I didnt see a change quickly.. Did I mention I have no patience?? I was just wondering if someone could tell me what has worked best for them. Thanks so much to any one who responds
