New here, am I in the right place?

  • Hi there, I am a 30 something woman who needs to loose about 45 pounds....after baby #2 and #3 (I lost nothing between the two)
    Is this where I should be?
    I am also nursing my baby #3 she is 3 months old and I plan to nurse for 12 months. I have had trouble trying to lose weight in the past while I was nursing but I am really trying to change that. The problem is I really love to eat all the time!!!!
    Ok, so here I am
    I am going to try to follow Weight Watchers I think, Unless I get better advise from someone here. What have you had the best success with?
    thanks all
  • Hi Minnesotawife!! You are most definitely in the right place! Hop on over to the "Daily Chat" thread, that's where we do most of our chatting!
  • Hello, I'm a newbie and a 30 something too!
  • Hi Lexi!
  • Welcome!
    I nursed all 4 of my kids and never lost any of the weight my midwife swore I would while nursing! HAHA.
    I found that if you drink lots of water while nursing and munch all day on good stuff like raisins,carrots,nuts ect.. your milk production is a lot better and you are less hungry (and zapped out) .

    I gained OVER 100 pounds and kept it all on since my first one was born. I am down 24 pounds in 2 months just eating less and walking a mile a day every single day.

    Good Luck!
  • Hi I am new here also--I just finished nursing my 2nd (and surprise baby) and found also that I gained great while pregnant and lost not and ounce while nursing--so 16 months :P later here I am trying to get back to start.
  • Hello! I'm new and I need all the support I can get! I would also like to be supportive!
