    Default I Had My BABY!!!!!! and 60+ lbs!

    I did it! I had my little man IN February. Hes so beautiful and I have to post up some pics soon...i know. He came out healthy and chubby...just the way babies should be
    The downside to my bundle of joy was the 60+ pounds i packed onto my 5'1 frame...gone are the 36-24-35 measurements that i once possesed. At my most, I think my measurements got to 48-46-48...still retained a somewhat distorted shape but it was there.
    Present day...Im a curvy momma with a dilema: I miracuously managed to shed most of my weight leaving me with 17 lbs to lose(thanks to breastfeeding) at 11 weeks post partum. Now, I am currently back at my sedetary desk job and need/want to lose this weight by june 2...why the rush? Because I have a break from work(day job) for that upcoming week that i know i could make $$$$ if i could work at my old S.C at night.Its $$ that I really need due to having a yearlong hiatus from hustling and i cant really take off from my day job to work it(health insurance).
    So, Ladies of SW, can i lose it by then in a way that wont affect my Breastfeeding? I cannot take pills of any kind and no redbulls. I can depend of old faithful(coffee) and a healthy diet, true, but i need to consume enough to have a healthy supply for mini-me. Any advice, tips?
    I am joining Sinder on her mission and hope I can stay strong....but is my goal a realistic one? (fingers crossed)

    Congratulations on the little man!! That's wonderful! And it's amazing that you've shed so much weight already. I don't know how realisitic it is to lose 17lbs by June 2nd, only because I don't know if baby weight should come off differently. Like, they say you shouldn't be losing more than 3 lbs per week on a healthy plan, but I'm not really sure if that's the same for new moms. But I'd say just watch what you eat, eat only in moderation, and excercise regularly. Make sure to get at least a little weight training in, because then, even when you're sitting at your desk, your muscles will be burning calories for you. Good luck!!

    Cardio with lots of intervals of high intensity, weight training, keep breastfeeding. Remember to eat and pack snacks to keep your metabolism working.

    You know what, I think you'll just lose it without even trying. After a few months I thought I was back to my before weight, but then I continued to lose it just by breastfeeding. I eat SO much too it's crazy. Part of me wants to breastfeed for so long just as a diet!
    I'm confused, but the Chewbacca Truffle Shuffle cleared it up. - Emily

    yayyy! 3 lbs lost already! Ive begun replacing breakfast with Usana shakes and eating about 5 small meals throught the day. Im watching my sugar intake and cutting out about 75% of the "white stuff" i used to eat such as potatoes, rice, etc...
    I drink a lot of water and have done about 2 of the slim in six tape workouts. Im so excited!
