I’m almost 9 months postpartum and I lost almost all of my baby weight instantly. Now it’s slowly crept back on. I’m 20lbs heavier than I was pre-pregnancy. Anyone else dealt with this?

Question

I’m trying so hard to lose it! Anyone have any advice? I also have PCOS so I know that plays a role. I was 138 pre-pregnancy and now I’m close to 160! 😶😭 Also on Metformin for PCOS.  Any advice on getting the extra pounds off now?

Answer

I haven’t been pregnant before but I have been on a weight-loss journey for 10 months now and I’m down over 60 pounds! 
I’ve been using a Nutrition program. 
Feel free to message me :)

Answer

Breastfeeding also plays a huge part in weight loss postpartum. It burns between 300-500 calories so if you stopped breastfeeding it could have a factor in gaining some weight too.

Answer

Just try and cut out complex sugars and carbs. Breads, pastas, etc. limit dairy. Eat smaller portions. Drink lots of water.

Answer

So I had this happen to me... thenni got pregnant again and had to stop focusing on my weight gain. I had my daughter and by month six I platued in my weight loss... Then at 9 months I started gaining it back. So I started working out and platued again.... got pregnant so stopped focusing on it.
