Im officially disgusted at the site of myself. Help Please!

Before i was pregnant, I loved the gym, it always relaxed me and made me feel great. I always struggled to keep my weight down but always had an hour glass figure and worked hard to keep it.

Since i had the baby i am gross, my body is gross in so many parts and i cant lose the weight. My son is 7 months old and i BF for 6 which did not allow me to diet and it didnt take all the weight off like everyone says it will.

As of today I am on a south beach diet and making myself get to the gym at least 4 out of 5 work days a week when DS is sleeping. Its so hard working long days in the city and getting ready and to bed and still making time for the gym!!!

Any advice and support is welcome I really hate feeling this way and crying when i get dressed in the morning!!!Chat Icon

also try WW. You should be able to lose most of your weight with just a change in what you eat. Exercise helps but you can do it without going to the gym at all.

Weight loss is 90% diet.

this is why the mommy post is great, bc we've all been there. Im doing WW and yes the weight loss aspect of it is great and has been working wonders. I think though, having been pregnant and the size of a house when I was, that we need to exercise too bc our stomach muscles get so stretched out from the pregnancy that a lot of us need the work to get the muscles back into shape. I dont have a ton to lose, but my stomach muscles need a TON of help! Even if I lose all the weight, my stomach is a mess from being stretched out!

So I hear, its a long hard process, but you will get there too.

And yes, thats all you need to do, to join us.
