My 3rd and (hopefully) final weight loss journey!
 
1 Attachment(s)
So, baby #2 is now 7 days old and I am here for my 3rd and hopefully final weight loss journey (the baby factory is CLOSED, thanks!). I lost the first 30lbs when I was a single young gal in 2004, then again in 2010 after #1, and now it's time to lose for #2! I am only 145lbs now at 5'5 (wow, how the weight dropped much faster when nursing this time!!!).

Obviously it's too soon to count calories or anything but I look forward to the new journey. But that being said, I am also looking forward to lifelong maintenance :D

Here is some shameless spam. He was 8lb 7oz and born after a 12 hour drug-free delivery (owwww) but on the plus side, I lost 20lbs this week and I did not experience water gain after any sort of epidural (which I did with my 1st, gaining 2lbs AFTER he was born, LOL)

Congratulations! You sound like you are on the right track. I had my second child 42 years ago without drugs and using prepared childbirth techniques. Definitely makes for a quicker rebound. You made the right decision - IMO. Eat healthy!

Congratulations Sacha! Though lengthy, I have definitely preferred less drugs than more. Quicker recoveries are only one bonus ;)

You'll get that baby weight off soon enough - just be diligent with your diet and make smart choices while you're still taking it easy!

Congratulations!!
You sound like your on just the right track.
I'll be looking forward to following your progress, to learn how to do it myself as I gear up for baby making in the near future! (;
