Does anyone have any recommendations to lose weight after they have had their baby which worked? E.g. exercise dvds, slimming clubs etc. I’m not confident enough to go to a gym so things I can do at home. I know I have to eat healthy and exercise, but anything that has helped? I have been everything from a size 6 to a size 22, and I’m kind of in the middle at the moment and want to lose a 2-3 stone as my confidence isn’t great x
When I gave birth to Ava I did Charlotte Crosby belly blitz and I lost a stone but my eating was still quite bad so if I ate better I would of probably lost more, my partner downloads work outs for me on YouTube that I can do at home which are very affective, I think the weight will just come over doing your day to day activities and lots of walking 😊 x
@hayleyf, aww that’s the spirit Hun ... we can do anything because we are supper mummies 💪🏽💪🏽 lol x
@farahamran, thanks Hun. My little one is 8 weeks old and I just don’t want to keep putting it off...so watch this space x
@hayleyf, I joined slimming world couple of years ago & I have to say I lost about one stone in just few months & it’s really easy diet don’t have to count how much you eating, you just have to change the way you cook your food , exercise they used to say as long as you do some exercise for 15 mins everyday that’s ok which can be 15mins walking , 15mins workout @ home it doesn’t matter! I have got few exercise dvds @ home including Davina s 15 mins workout & that’s the best one I have to say because with that you can choose any 15mins workout e.g cardio , legs , arms or abs 😉 lol
P.S I am really paranoid about my stomach like you are & I also need to loose couple of stones my post baby weight 😩 I am currently breastfeeding but I think I am only gunna do it another couple of months if I can 😬 then I am gunna hopefully start my diet & exercise it can be just walking with pram lol that’s still countable 😂 lol xx
@hayleyf honestly hun don't worry about ive been looking at so much stuff to help me loose weight I can't get my baby weight off... I hate walking in cold weather and I'm trying to exercise but it just doesn't feel like the weight is coming off.. and most importantly I love choclate way to much I can't go a day with out it so healthy eating is hard for me cccc
@chloemcmahon96, I’m so unfit though, which I’m worried about too x
@shannonn95 I agree with Shannon that Charlotte DVD is amazing I lost a stone by doing before I was pregnant then when I was pregnant I gave it to my fella brother for use but now I need it back to loose the baby weight but feel bad asking for it back cos I said they could have it :( so I have to buy another zxx

@hayleyf yeh I just use to walk about talking to brody in pram, I probably looked like a crazy person tbh 😂
@beffgoude, good way to get out too! Feel a bit cooped up in the house sometimes x
I just did alot of walking about, so im not much help really. but I swear walking up and down hills and round parks pushing pram did something for my body 😂
@hayleyf I completely understand. Ive found it really hard to accept my different body shape. My husband says he hardly notices my belly, I don't know whether he is just being kind, but I'm always trying to cover it up. Let me know if you manage to find something that works. I do go to the gym and do a class when I can but I go with friends, that way I feel less conscious. X
@shannonn95, so true! That’s why I don’t want to go to a gym because there aren’t enough hours in the day! Lol x
@kshelley, it’s my tummy that bothers me too. Feel awful and won’t let my OH touch me there, even though he says he doesn’t care x
I put a shit load of weight on when I was pregnant with Arlo I can’t believe it now looking back at photos!! But the workout DVD is great because it’s 3 minutes blasts like what boxers do and there’s like 12 rounds I could only do the warm up and half of the first round to start with and now I can do about 8 rounds, good as well when you have a baby cause I could manage about 3 minutes spare every time before he wanted attention 😂 x
@hayleyf ye I thought the same but apparently not for everyone. A lot of people struggle and only start to lose it when they stop breastfeeding. It can be so frustrating, I still look 5 months pregnant and friends and family keep commenting about my tummy which makes me even more self conscious. I hope you find something that works for you. X
Charlotte Crosby’s belly blitz dvd!! Swear by it, as for dieting even small things like using a small plate rather than a big one so you eat less, watching your calorie intake, the weight watchers syn diet, or having a look online at different plans, that’s what worked for me hun x
@kshelley, I thought breastfeeding helped you lose weight? My little one is bottle fed so not sure x
Hey, I don't really have many tips, as because of breastfeed aparantly it can be harder to lose weight because your body holds onto fat reserves for baby. I did try major dieting and excercise but it affected my milk supply. But lately I've been going sugar free and that seems to be working for me, but slowly enough not to affect my milk. I've cut out all refined sugar so still eating fruit. I was surprised how many things contain sugar. I've also started walking a lot with the little one round the park either in pram or sling. X
@noshinxoxo, thank you! I’ll sit down and have a look in a bit x
I've not lost the baby weight. But pre-pregnancy I lost A LOT of weight from at home workouts only. Fitnessblender on YouTube. They also have a website, you can start beginner level 15 minute workouts. Honestly I can garuntee you within 2 weeks you'll see and different by doing the hiit workouts daily. I recommended it to people who were avid gym goers and they said it affected them way more than going gym and running on a treadmill xx


I just found out I’m having twins!!❤️❤️
Ugh. Went from being a size 8 to a size 14. I’m so sad about this. After I have my baby I need to lose 40 pounds hopefully quickly 😭
