Finally losing weight :-)

edited February 2012 in Pregnant
So I've been working my butt off, literally, to lose this damn baby weight and I'm starting to see results :-) I'm getting married in June and bought a dress before my son surprised us lol. I can almost zip the dress up so I'm getting excited. How are all of you pregly ladies doing with your weight loss?

  • walk 4 miles 4 times a week at a 4mph pace
  • I am still 15lbs away from my prepreg weight :( I am taking phentermine pills and lost 8lbs in a week, I'm too exhausted to work out at the end of the day.
  • I know this will sound bad but since I don't have anyone to watch Dominic, I wear him in the baby bijourn while I walk on the treadmill. He's 15lbs so it's like power walking with weights on. Plus he always falls asleep so then I can put him down and do weights.
  • @fantastic I walk to the grocery store store with my daughter strapped to me!
  • @lucyloo288 it's the best way to exercise with them. I got shit from my coworkers for the treadmill but I'm like what am I supposed to do with him, leave him at home alone?
  • You do what you gotta do!
  • I am 5 lbs from prepregnancy weight and also on Phentermine ... my goal is 120
  • @Rosiepie what is phentermine and is it safe for breastfeeding? I need to lose 40lbs by June and will try anything.
  • I finally went and got the phentermine pills on Wed. Summer is around the corner I'm excited to lose this damn preggo weight.
    @frantastic- I'll bump the post that explains phentermine pills.
  • Thanks girlie. I have to fit back into the wedding dress I bought.
  • No u can not take it bfing... u can get them from a weight loss clinic... but i got them from a dr..... they r awesome... never hungry... i have to force myself to eat
  • Ugh that sucks because I am breastfeeding :(
  • I was down to my prepregnancy weight when i was bfing but when i stopped i gained 10+ lbs back... it sucked
  • In a matter of 2 wks!
  • Thanks for the info ladies, I'm thinking about stopping breastfeeding because I'm running out of milk so maybe when I quit I get some of these pills. I don't care what anyone says, breastfeeding has not helped me lose weight at all :( plus it's uncomfortable and takes to long anyway. If it weren't for the whole giving my son my awesome antibodies thing I probably would have quit a long time ago.

    Yay u will be zipping that dress up in no time ;)

    I had my baby a mOnth ago and have 10lbs to lose. I been stuck at this weight since two weeks post op lol. I'm bfing but Im always hungry so I been eating a lot
  • @myheartzx3 You are soooo lucky to be losing that weight so fast! I'm almost 4mo pp and still have 15-20lbs to lose to get back :(
  • @excitedforoctober I'm in the same boat... sigh. My son is almost 4mo and I'm still a big fat blob :(
  • Im on the I don't have time to eat diet because my LO has colic so.I walk the house all day.. only 5 more lbs out.of the 40 to go lol so its working for me
  • wit those pills do u lose weight everywhere??
  • @frantastic I love my bjorn. I also use it on the treadmill, walking to stores and in the house if I need hands free. My lo loves it. I aslo breastfeed and was told your body will hang onto the last 10lbs or so until you stop breastfeeding because your boody needs the fat. I was shocked, you always hear bf will make you drop the weight. Ugh. Needless to say I will be rocking a bikini on vacation starting this weekend anyways!
  • @ Crisjoe, I'm glad I'm not the only person who uses it on the treadmill. You wouldn't believe how much crap I got when I told people I was doing it. I need to lose 40lbs so I'm thinking about stopping breastfeeding.
  • @excitedforoctober 9 lbs to go today lol I think it's from breastfeeding because I am eating a lot and still losing weight. The last two times I gave birth I lost weight fast but it was because I dieted because I wasn't bfing. For some reason my apetite is bigger then when I was preggo lol How much did u gain tho? I gained 35lbs. U look tiny n petite in the pic I saw not too long ago
  • I lost all my pregnancy weight and some before my Lo was 2 weeks. I just want to tone and tighten bc I'm surprising the Mr with a vacation for his bday and my girls and I are tryinf to celebrate Jamaica's big 50th year of independence in August.
  • @myheartzx3 I also gained 35lbs! I was 125 prepregnancy, went up to 160 and am now at 139 :( I was 147 last week lol...but I am short so the extra weight looks bad on me.
  • @ExcitedForOctober don't worry mama it took u 10 months to gain the weight and it will come off..its better to lose weight slowly. last two times i lost the weight fast by dieting and now i realize that thats was probably why my hair fell out because i wasn't eating good. lol this time i am not dieting and my hair didn't even fall out. it was real bad..alot of my hair came out X_X
  • @myheartzx3 omg thats what is happening to me! I'm literally going bald! :( Soooo much of my hair falls out that I'm starting to think its not normal. It just started about a month ago.
  • @ExcitedForOctober ahh i hope i didn't speak to early LOL when did u stop taking ur prenatals? mines was bad it looked like my hairline was receding. i had short baby hair all over when it started to grow back it was gross
