Who else is shedding baby weight?



Recommended Posts

Is anyone else here postpartum trying to shed those pesky pregnancy pounds? I'd love to get an accountability thread started so we can cheer each other on as we work our way back to goal while dealing with new babies!

Getting to the gym is SO not an option for me with two five year olds that don't start school until the fall and a five week old that's just too young to be in gym daycare.

I gained 32 pounds and have 9 pounds left to my pre-pregnancy weight. I'd like to lose those 9 and perhaps an extra 6 or so, but we'll see how that goes.

I'd like to invite other new mommies (and even not-so-new mommies!) out of the woodwork to post how they're doing now that pregnancy is over. The biggest question we get here is about losing weight post op, and I'm sure that participating can help not only us, but other sleevers considering a child post sleeve.

How are you eating?

How are you getting enough rest?

How easily is the weight coming off?

Is exercise an option for you? What are you doing to help shed pounds?

Let's get some conversation going here!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
