Thread: Trying to lose weight for the first time

Hi, i'm Kristen
Two years ago i was a slim girl with good shape, then i met my husband ang gave birth to 2 amaizing children. After that smth happend to my hormones and i've put on weight a lot.
I tried all diets i know, but they did't work! i tried sports, but that is too hard for such fat person like me.
What should i do? What should i start with?
Please advise me
Thank u

Losing baby weight is a serious problem by many moms because there is no easy way to get rid of it. However, the good thing is you got yourself 2 amazing kids so it's not really a bad thing. Putting on some weight after having a baby is normal and there are definitely ways to get rid of it. You just need to burn more calories by keeping active, eating more fiber rich foods, and avoiding fatty foods.

Thank u, Mikaela! may be u know some special dieting programms for moms? or those are not useful? because iv heard that everything is personal!

You're welcome Kriste. I'm glad to help. I read from several weight loss articles that fad diets are not advisable. I did find some tips to help you lose weight. How long ago did you give birth? Because it's not advisable to start losing weight after giving birth. If it has been more than 6 weeks however, you're ready to start? Are you breast feeding? I'll post a new thread on how to lose baby weight and add in all the tips I get from my research. Hope you get some tips that'll work for you.

That would be amaizing if you post smth about baby weight! my second sweety is now 10 months! and yes i'm still breast feeding!

Breast feeding can help you lose weight but will require you to eat 500 more calories a day to give your body the fuel it needs for that extra energy demand. Cutting your calories too much can lessen your milk supply, and losing too much weight of more than two pounds a week can actually release toxins that wind up in your milk so it isn't safe for the baby.

Yes, iv read about that! but the problem is that iv put on weight for the first time when my first daughter was born! after second pregnancy iv gained even more! so you think that i should start dieting after finishing breast feeding?

Hi Kriste, sorry I wasn't able to post the thread yesterday' I'll surely do that now and I hope you like it. It'll be on the general section

Hi Kriste! Welcome to the forum! I know it's late but I want to welcome to anyway. I know it's hard to lose the pregnancy weight. You need to be more patient with that since you are breastfeeding and your baby needs a lot of nutrition from you. Don't worry, you'll get there

Hi Kriste, welcome to the forum i done this program its not a diet its a total body nutritional internal cleanse, it helped me reach my goal
it took me three months to reach my goal i got good results on the program.
