Re: If you lost your baby weight...
I am at my wedding day weight 1 year pp of DC 3. I still have some work to do in the tummy area though.
I made better food choices and do the elliptical 30 minutes, 4-5 days a week. I'm a sahm mom of 3. That's all I have time for. And I don't do late night workouts. I just can't.

You still need to make the healthy choices. If you pick high value points you will end up hungry and going over your points.
My best advice with WW is sto stay away from their pre-packaged food.
for anything to work you need to pick the healthy choices.
I agree about healthy choices and minimal pre packaged!!!!!!
I lost all weight by 4 weeks and an extra 7 lbs by 6 weeks. I exclusively pumped.
Now at 17 weeks pregnant I weight the same amount when I got pregnant with #1.
Long story short, I lost over 80 lbs over 9 years ago using WW. It def. works. BUT, I did eat A LOT of pre packed WW labeled and tons of other low fat and fat free items and frozen meals. Although I liked how I looked I didn't feel overly healthy. After a long food journey I now *try* to eat as "clean" as possible. Very little processed foods, lost of fruits and veggies, FULL FAT yogurts, cheese and milk, 100% whole grains, EVEN IF IT MEANS MORE CALORIES. I an no longer a crazy calorie counter. I eat healthy and within appropriate portions. When you eat foods that are closest to nature (I try to buy organic or at least labels that I can identify the ingredients) your body knows how to deal with them and break them down. Not like a highly processed science experiment. If you asked me 5 years ago to eat full fat cheese, I would have cringed. But I am a believer now that I weigh less, eat more and don't stress as much with every bite I eat.

Re: If you lost your baby weight...
I did the Jullian Mihaels DVD's and lost most of my weight. I'm still 8lbs from prepregnancy. Most of it is because I love my cookies with milk at night. Now I don't buy it and I'm working out 2x a day to tone up and loose those 8lbs.

Re: If you lost your baby weight...
Weight Watchers. The weight flew off. But I followed the program exactly. I didn't cheat which was hard. But they give you weekly allowance points to use for special occasions or when you go out to eat.

Jenny Craig!!! Easiest diet ever. I lost almost 40lbs. I actually went down 10ls under my pre pregnancy weight. I've been off for almost a year now and still maintaining easily. Worth every penny.
Same here. I lost the baby weight after two pregnancies with Jenny Craig. I also play tennis and run.

South Beach Diet. I lost the baby weight and all the post-wedding weight on top of it.
I second south beach. I was back to my pre-prego weight about 2 weeks later but I had gained a bit of weight before I got pregnant. I'm about 8 lbs away from my wedding weight. I'm using bee pollen now to supplement.

Re: If you lost your baby weight...
My DS is now 2, but I lost almost all the baby weight myself (combination of WW and other plans), but needed to lose more. After struggling for a year, I finally went to see a nutritionist who put me on a reduced calorie diet and a plan to get my BMI down to a healthier level (she gave me meal plans and a shopping list of what brands she wants me eating). I'm about a month into it and down almost 10 pounds. I'm thrilled, and more importantly, I have a healthier relationship with food now. I still have another 10-15 pounds to go, but for the first time in my dieting adult life, I know I can get there gradually.
I should add that I was eating somewhat ok before I saw the nutritionist, but my portions were oversized and sometimes not the best options. She made some fundamental comments on my food choices that really helped me embrace the change.
Best part is that I feel awesome, and now I'm getting the awesome "you're wasting away to nothing" comments from people. Hardly the truth, but feels amazing to hear it!
Good luck!
My nutritionist is in the city. Feel free to FM me for her info.
