Losing baby weight. What are your plans?

Question

First off most important is my baby of course and I can’t wait to hold him in my arms and smooch him up 🥰. Praying for safe deliveries for us all #September2019babies
Now, I can’t help but to admit my anxiousness to drop the weight. I have a 3 year old and I never lost the weight as I would have liked to from that pregnancy. Now this time, the second time around I gained more weight and quicker. I’m thinking about juicing like immediately. I would juice for about a week the go on a low carb diet, plenty of water and hit the gym when I am healed enough. I’ve been here before and I know how easy it is to focus on baby and negligent yourself. This time I plan on regaining confidence in my physical appearance while still loving my babies more than life itself. 
What are your weight loss goals/plans after birth. Please share 💖💙
PS I’m currently 5’9 202 I would like to lose about 45 pounds after pregnancy.

Answer

Considering I'm breastfeeding I won't be doing any fad diet that could harm my supply or my baby so I'm sticking to traditional methods. Just eating a moderate amount of complex carbs, more vegetables, cut out refined sugar and walk regularly! Also need to remember to drink plenty of water, water can seriously help with weight loss!

Answer

Going to do a lot of walking & working out. Probably no harsh diet because I want to breast feed & it’ll be football season 😂 gotta have my 🍕+🍺 on gamedays !

Answer

Beach body! Juicing right away might effect breastfeeding (if you’re planning on doing that). I’ve gained 19 pounds so far and still have a month to go so I’m hoping to only gain a couple more. 
I’ve been truly eating like crap most of this pregnancy with cravings so I’m hoping to just got back to my normal diet after and lose the weight with the help of beach body. (My best friend just became a coach) 
Don’t be too hard on yourself and think it has to be extreme and right away! My friend gained 50 pounds her pregnancy and now she has a rocking body and her daughter is not even two. 
Good luck momma!

Answer

Walking and the 15 mommy fit challenge from ideal fit. Did it last time and it worked for me.

Answer

I was doing 21 day fix before getting pregnant and will be going back to that after. I workout all the time, even while pregnant but portion controlling my food is what helps me be in the best shape. Highly recommend it! (I am not a coach I just think it works well). You don’t deprive yourself of any food groups so I think it’s more realistic for long term success.

Answer

No plans. I used to obsess about it, but it was a total waste of time and energy(being active and healthy is cool, but focusing on lbs and the way my body looks after kids is such a waste). I plan on being more active once I’m all cleared and baby allows(which won’t be for a WHILE), but other than that I’m at peace with myself. We plan on having another baby soon after this one too so it’d be pointless to focus on changing my body once this baby is out lol. 😊

Answer

Paleo diet!

Answer

Im going to have a 14 month old and a newborn. My plan is to enjoy the good weather and take my babies for plenty of walks. Baby wearing and squats. I also plan to eat a better well rounded diet and breastfeeding is in my plans so I have to make sure I get plenty of nutrients so it means continuing with a good vitamin supplement. No sugars that are unnatural. I switched from cows milk to unsweet almond milk except to cook meals then I use 1% milk. More fresh fruits and veggies and lean meats. Ive dropped 10 lbs just being prego and eating right meanwhile baby boy is measuring about a week ahead. I am 5'3" and 241 though and all because I gained a lot my first pregnancy and didnt  drop it before I got pregnant again lol. I'm also getting my tubes removed to prevent further babies. I am hoping that I can focus on it the next year or so and my eventual goal by this time.next year is to be down to 125. I'd like to be able to get a breast reduction done after I wean my son as 48 DD is a bit much for me and I eouldnt mind being a 38C cup.

Answer

I haven’t gained much weight with this pregnancy so I just plan on eating salads fruit and water, no meat. I want to lose about 20 pounds depending on if I gain more. If not 10-15 pounds is good. Mostly maintaining. I’m 5’7 and I weigh 168. Just sit ups, squats, lunges and walks with the kids, maybe dumbbells 💪🏽
