Does anyone have any helpful tips for losing weight? I've tried fasting, calorie counting etc but I always seem to keep it up for about 2 weeks then lose motivation.

I've heard a lot that to keep weight off you have to change the way you eat for good but I find it so hard to stick to constantly cooking veg for breakfast lunch and dinner.

Calorie counting but making sure you're in calorie defecit. So my basal metabolic rate (calories you burn just being alive) is about 1600kcal and I try to stick to a maximum of 1200kcal a day

I do 16:8 intermittent fasting every day. So you eat in the 8 hour window and fast for 16 hours. I eat between 9am and 5pm. Also if you go on google and find out your basal metabolic rate (BMR) it will tell u how many calories your body needs a day just to survive and you can change it to how active you are and it will change the calories. This is how I know how many calories I can have per day. If you do need to have something if you wake early then just have like 1 piece of toast xx

That's amazing! Well done for losing that much. I wanted to go to weight watchers but I was afraid of being judged for being silly. I'm not massively overweight or anything I just want to slim down back to what I was before I had tommy. I used to be a 10-12 now I'm a 12-14. Xxx

Definitely trying to intermittent fasting again I think! So many people are recommending it 😊 I find it hard to calorie count but I'll give it a go again. Thank you xx

Use the TDEE calculator. It’s tells you how many calories your body needs per day. Goes on your height, weight, age and gender, plus level of activity. You need to be in a calorie deficit every day. My current goal is 600 kcal less than what I’m burning. You can eat whatever you like within those calories but try to aim for 1.6% of your body weight (in kg) on protein.

This is all advice from my PT.

After giving birth to my 4th baby I lost 30 lbs in about 3 months.

Before getting pregnant this time, I lost a further 20lbs in 7 weeks.

I changed my eating habits. So snacking would mean only low calorie snacks like rice cakes or fruits.

I cut out carbs and sugary stuff.

My last meal would be at 6pm.

I ran everyday 40-50 mins.

And I drank detox tea ( sorry tmi but my digestive system is really slow and this helped )

You can go low carb if you love some carbs. Or you can put more portions of proteins & veggies vs carbs x

That's amazing! I love rice cakes so that wouldn't be a problem for me. Definitely going to try and stop eating at 6-7pm like everyone has recommended. I'd love to start running aswell but my partner would say otherwise as it would mean having to look after our son for an hour 🤦‍♀️ xx

@kelsey234 oh no ! Do you have space at your house for a treadmill.

I ran on my treadmill as it was more convenient especially during the rainy and cold days x

Yeah my problem is snacking mostly! If I get hungry its always so easy to grab a packet of crisps or something 😂 I've never liked sugary drinks so that's not been a problem for me I always drink water. Which intermittent fasting do you recommend?! Xx

@beebeejgill going to try and do this again! I wish I could sleep longer as I find it easier then but sometimes tommy wakes me at 5-6am so it's a long time to have a rumbling tummy until 11 😩 xx

Ok so not using actual numbers.. But everyone knows I'm over weight since having my girls. It's no secret. BUT i was talking with my hubby last night and idk how we got to this but he said something like (not using actual numbers) no one should weigh 800lbs, they should take care of themselves. And i said so what if someone weighs 800lbs? He said no one should weigh that, they should be healthier. I said well i almost weigh 800! I'm in the 790s. And I'm healthy. I may be overweight but i don't have any diseases, no high cholesterol, no high blood pressure, i don't have a bad heart, lungs, or anything else. So I'm healthy I'm just over weight. So then we argued about him having an issue with my weight.. Am i wrong in this? Because it really hurt my feelings.. I've tried sooo many different things to lose weight but having hypothyroidism makes you gain/hard to lose. And my medications for depression and anxiety cause you to gain also.. So it's very hard to lose weight.. But i didn't even know he had an issue with my weight until last night..

How much have you ladies gained so far ?? I've gained 64lbs 😳 my husband makes me feel shitty when I indulge by reminding me how hard it's gonna be to lose the weight once baby comes. I don't know if it hurts my feelings or pisses me off but my dr doesn't seem to be concerned about all this weight I've gained I started at 106lb so I was small to begin with. Talk about stressful
