Dose anyone have any weight loss success stories?
I am in the process of losing weight after being pregnant, and having a c-section. I actually gained most of my weight before I got pregnant. I had a hard time getting pregnant. I had PCOS, and some hormone problems that made me pack on the pounds, on top of taking meds to help with those problems, the meds I had to take caused weight gain. During my pregnancy I only gained about 35 pounds, which my doctor told me was the healthy amount to gain. Before all these problems came up I was used to being very thin. I always felt like I was very pretty, and I had a lot of confidence. I still think I’m pretty; I just want to lose weight. Also after I get my weight off I will be buying a completely new wardrobe, and makeup. So that gives me something to really look forward to, and makes me want to get it off that much more. I would love to hear some of your weight lose success stories, or makeover succes stories. Or if you have any kind of tips what so ever.

Being preggers screws up many women's body forever, and loosing it is tuff, for sure. It all now comes down to the oldies but goodies--- both yucko: diet and exercise.
Things that work for me:
Breakfast:
steel cut oats,1/4 c cooked until done also called Scottish oats, you can get them at Trader Joe's, or any health food section.
walnuts,10 or so halves, blue berries, ground flax seed, 2 T, some brown sugar . skim milk
Lunch
1 c. green spinach, olive oil for dressing, some olives, a carrot sliced, one tomato, or some cottage cheese and fresh fruit.
Dinner
a few oz. fish, chicken or other lean meat, a green veggie, and a very tiny salad... again, olive oil, not man made dressings..
Eliminate breads,candy, brownies, and the other stuff you and I all love. Snack on celery. You can easily loose a pound or two a week. Just remember, it didn't take you just two months to pack in on, it will be longer than two months to get rid of it... And the exercise... walk at least 20 min every day.even if it is just around your neighborhood pushing your baby with you. boring? Oh, yes. If you go to a gym, walk or use the elliptical strider or the tread mill for 15 minimum, and at least 3 times a week. then use some of the machines for toning your tummy, and muscles.
Hope this helps.
Is it true that if you wear a padded bra to sleep..?
Weight Watchers worked so well for me. I didn't even go the meetings, wasn't weighed by them, etc., I just went, got the initial information on how the point system works and did it.
It teaches you how to eat well and lose weight doing it instead of restricting your calorie intake so much that you're hungry all the time and unhealthy. With Weight Watchers, it was really easy to lose weight and KEEP it off! After about two months, I had lost about 25 lbs. and everyone was telling me how wonderful I looked.
Honestly Weight Watches is a great program, and they offer support if you need it. My husband has used the program and lost 40lbs, I used it and lost 15 lbs, my bf used it and she lost 45lbs. I have been working out since I had my baby, but I am going to go back onto weight watchers, it gives results, and it is easy to follow, basically it teaches you portion control, and how to eat healthier.
