Slim at 30

Hi just subscribing to your thread. I'm emma and i have a 4 and a half week old baby boy. I have 3 stone to loose! Would like to loose half a stone by my birthdays in August which gives me 6 weeks! My biggest problem is my appetite it seems to be huge at the moment with breast feeding and I'm craving sweet things so looking for inspiration x

Congratulations on your little boy. Hows it all going? My little one is 8 weeks old now. Can't believe how quickly it's gone.

I reckon you can lose half a stone in 6 weeks. I've got the same amount of time (mines the 15th) I want to lose about 3 stone in that time, wishful thinking? Hehe

I've managed to overcome my chocolate cravings by going cold turkey and amazingly, I'm not craving it any more. I satisfy my sweet tooth with yogurts, fruit and Alpen light bars if that's any help? Take it easy as you are breastfeeding though. You need a good amount of calories to help your baby boy grow. I didn't produce enough milk to bf so having to bottle feed which was a bit disappointing.
 
Tiring lol. He's going through the colicky phase to so evenings are testing but I've been through it before with my first child so know what to expect.

I'm going to get some Alpen lights I think and yogurts. I'm going to try and drink more to. I went clothes shopping yesterday, a size 14 seems so far away at the moment :-( x
 
I've been really lucky as Daniel hasn't had any kind of colic. He is so chilled out, I'm just waiting for some kind of bad habit to start! I hope he settles for you soon, the time goes so fast though itll just be a memory soon. Hopefully!!

I'm in my size 18s which I was before I was pregnant so I'm happy that way, but I'm also aiming for 14s, the problem is that I'm losing weight but none if it seems to be coming off my tummy. Having 2 kids really causes trouble, think only a tummy tuck will help me there. Lol!
 
Well and truly fell off the wagon. Out lastnight and drank my body weight in alcohol! Plus ate bad things yesterday and hubby bought me a sausage and egg mcmuffin to help with the hangover. Also got a BBQ a bit later! Think weigh in this week us going to be depressing! Will be back on it tomorrow!

It happens to all of us :( chin up and fresh start tomorrow x
 
Nevermind Hun have a fresh start tomorrow! I have had cake today!! Still plenty of time to rectify it before weigh day xx
 
Definitely back on it tomorrow. I've eaten a lot of bread today and my stomach really isn't happy about it. It's a food I definitely need to steer clear of.
 
Oh god, I've turned into an eating machine. Think I'm going to not weigh myself this week as I think it'll demotivate me. Definitely back on diet tomorrow then I will have 10 days to weigh in to get back on track.

Congratulations on the pregnancy, that's exciting! September will be here before you know it, is it your first baby? How have you been feeling? I love baby and pregnancy stories. I'm already feeling broody again!

I don't feel very inspirational at the moment to be honest as I have been sooooo naughty this weekend, but hopefully I can be good from tomorrow. I've got about 5 weeks now to lose 5 stone, ha! If I could lose 1 I would be happy (ish) though. I just need to know I'm getting there.

I tried sw when I was pregnant but chocolate and cake got the better of me so it's only been the past 5 or so weeks that I've stuck to it!

Please send lots of positive thoughts my way, I'm going to need them! X

Yeah this is my first (and last I think!!) so very excited and taking the 'eating for 2' to a whole new level! Lol.

Choc, crisps and snacks in general are my downfall! But my meals are much smaller than they used to be so must be evening something up!

I can't say I have enjoyed pregnancy and this heat is a killer for me! Can't get or keep cool :-/

I have a plan to join SW group on the first week in November cos by then baby should be 4-5 week old and I will be ready for a more 'restricted' diet. Hoping to breast feed too which I hear is good for weight loss :-D

Sending lots of positivity yr way x

Oh yes, this heat must be a killer for you! When I was pregnant with my first it was this hot near the end, I hated it. My husband bought me a paddling pool to sit in! Haha.

I don't like being pregnant either, the babies are worth it though.

Breastfeeding burns about 500 calories a day or something doesn't it? Definitely a good thing all round! Unfortunately I didn't produce enough milk so he had to go onto the bottle but I would have loved to do it.

Good plan about joining group, although make sure you feel ready. I'm doing it by myself as o can't really spare the cash, I'm finding minimins really helpful though.

I hope you manage to cool down a bit today.

I am back on plan today! Its gonna happen! X
 
Right, back on it today!

Ryvita & melon
S- fruit.
L- roasted butternut squash soup
S- fruit
D-pork chops, mash and veg

Loads of water to detox the excess alcohol from my system!
 
My new goal seems to be weigh 30 stone by the time I'm 30! I actually can't stop eating and think I might just end up that weight. I did well until just now and had a cheese scone and chocolate cake. What is wrong with me? I was doing so well up until Thursday last week......

Have you had any syns aside from that? X

About 4 with dinner (had cheese sauce with leeks). It's the cheese scone that I reckon is the worst! The good thing is that most of the bad stuff is out of the house now so hopefully I can do better tomorrow. X
