Weight Loss After Pregnancy

Hi! I am a Blessed Mommy to eight children, and yes, they are all mine (& my husband's)!!! So if you haven't guessed, I have weight to lose from my last pregnancy. I am not able to diet due to the fact that I am nursing. However, I am trying my best to eat well... lots of fruits & veggies... I haven't updated this blog since 2008, so I am getting ready to get started again here in 2009.

Wednesday's Weigh In!!!

This week, I didn't do as well as I thought, BUT a loss is a loss any way you look at it! I lost .8 pounds this week bringing my total up to 13.4 pounds lost total.

Do you remember that challenge I took last week? Well, I completed it...that is more than 28 fruits and veggies, AND 300 exercise minutes!!! I felt so accomplished by the successful completion of the challenge that I took the challenge AGAIN this week!!! Am I crazy or what?!!!

Yep!!! I thought so, I have gone loopy!!! I REALLY don't have the time to complete that many minutes...you know, I am up till 10 or 11p.m. exercising, but my clothes are continually getting bigger on me AND I am getting closer and closer to being able to wear my wedding rings again. I am reaching for the prize and I won't rest until I get it.

Well, I must be off again...my Tae-Bo video is calling my name!!!

That is great on completing your goals and continuing to lose weight! Keep it up.

I was never "overweight" in high school or the first year of college, although I wasn't exactly "skinny". But I soon began to gain weight-although I played college soccer until I graduated.

I also gained weight with my first pregnancy-60 pounds YIKES!! And then got pregnant with number two-and had a miscarriage at 16 weeks. Fell into a deep depression, and then 6 months later found out we were pregnant with number 3 in December 2006-without having lost any weight from baby #2.

anyway, baby#3 was born with no complications. I only gained 40 lbs and I have lost all of plus 9 lbs. I still have 15 pound to go to be where I was before I got pregnant with baby#1 and then another 36 lbs to go to get to my goal weight

Anyway, congrats on the weight loss and the babies!!

Good for you! :-)

Have any of your kids ever tried the kids' version of the TaeBo videos? I spotted them on Blockbuster the other day and am wondering what other kids actually think of them. My daughter's 6 and she's enjoyed some kids' yoga DVDs but not others - the Wai Lana ones were a definite thumbs down with her. ;-)

Awesome blog, I'll be adding you to my blog roll! I was once a tae bo fanatic before I moved and couldn't find where I packed this DVDs.
