[Cas3]

Excellent hun I guess we both loosers of the week!! our weight is very similar x

 

[oasis6918]

Wow you two have been doing great, I hope some of that luck comes my way when I'm over x

 

[Cas3]

Thanks for up dating our stats ive got 4lbs to lose within 3 wi's to reach my mini target x

 

[oasis6918]

I shouldn't say luck, you've both worked hard xx

 

[Cas3]

Thanks, You lost 4 and half st after Jack so r going do gr8 this time, plus we can support each other along the way

 

[oasis6918]

Yeah I'm going to set my long term target at 4 and a half again as I've pretty much put the same on, by long term I mean I'd like to get it off in the year, but I hope to do it sooner if I work really hard x

 

[Cas3]

Thats good ur have a nice loss after birth so ur do well and with lo's ur be too busy to eat! I got 2st to get to my target, im setting myself some mini goals along the way I know the last st is going to be tough! I wud like to be at target by December xx

 

[mrs-s]

I got 18 weigh ins to get to my target which is SIL wedding. Need to lose 1.16lbs a week to do it, hoping to have a few more 2lb or so losses then it will give me more time, 21lbs to go so 1.5stone woo x

 

[oasis6918]

I think you'll both get those targets no problem given what your losing at the moment even if it slows down x

 

[Fordg]

Well done, you's are both doing brilliantly! xx

 

[Cas3]

Thanks Gemma, how are the bumps doing today? anyone got any signs? Becki your target is doable im sure ur get there in time for sil wedding! its good that you got an event to aim for x

 

[oasis6918]

Just lots of pressure and my bones in my private areas hurt because of it, I'm sure it's all part of the process though and keep thinking I need the toilet then can't go Grrrr...... X

 

[Cas3]

Anytime now as ur 39 wks x if you were having a planned section she probably of been born today x

 

[oasis6918]

I know I've been thinking this all week but I'm still determined for natural, I actually don't think there's anything wrong with planned section I just know how I felt after Jack a bit like I'd failed at giving birth when I'd had emergency section first time but if I end up with section this time then it's fine, the most important think is safe delivery either way. Also knowing hubby isn't having time off makes me really want normal birth so I don't have to rely on people so much after but we'll see. I've just been to dentist and when I lay back on chair I got this almighty cramp and stomach went rock hard, I ended up holding my breath the whole way through and I couldn't get out there quick enough in case something was happening lol x

 

[xxxjessiexxx]

Terri u will be fine hunni x

Not sure if this helps ladies found it on baby centre website for post baby weight loss.


Don't go on a strict, restrictive diet. Women need a minimum of 1,200 calories a day to stay healthy, and most women need more than that -between 1,500 and 2,200 calories a day - to keep up their energy and prevent mood swings. And if you're nursing, you need a bare minimum of 1,800 calories a day (most nursing moms need more like 2,000 to 2,700 calories) to nourish both yourself and your baby.

I think I'll start by using 1800, then reduce to 1500 for a while x
