question..rant? Prepregnacy I weighed 137lbs (I'm 5'4 btw) I was never big, I wore a size 2 and I was very active (I'm in the Army).
However now, even AFTER 18 months I have not lost much weight since I had my son.
It's really pathetic. I run 3-4x a week (usually 2-3 miles each time) I eat no different I just can't seem to lose this weight.
I began losing it when I had my son I managed to lose about 21 of the 35lbs that I had packed on while pregnant but then I gained about 10 of that back so now I'm in worse shape than I was immediately postpartum.
It's driving me nuts and really bringing down my self esteem. I weigh 162lbs which fluctuates (I don't really look like I weigh so much it's weird bc it's like all my weight shifted elsewhere, I mean my belly is super flat) but even when I do start to lose a little weight it stops once I hit 157lbs (I think that's my "plateau").
I am so damn frusterated..I have tried everything, dieting, colonics, going vegan (that didn't last long..hah), etc.
It's not like I am lazy and don't work out, I run every chance I get. It's never been this hard for me to lose weight. I could always lose it with no problem, no effort before my son came along.
Prepregnancy I could eat anything and everything I wanted but now I'm like obsessed with what I put into my mouth bc I know it will show.
I've gotten my blood checked, thyroids you name it..everything was normal.
I also might add that I was on the depo shot right after I had him but I don't know if that matters.
Anyone else out there have a hard time? I always hear about the lucky women who have their babies and then BAM! they're back in their "skinny" jeans like 2 months later..
I am wearing a size 10 now (ugh) and I just want to be able to fit into my old clothes again and look good..
How long did it take you (for those of you who had the same or similiar problems with your weight) to get back into your old clothes or is this it for me???
What worked for you?
I am not too concerned with my belly I don't have stretch marks or a pooch, just a fat (literally) ass..lol and thighs..
It's too late for me to breastfeed..besides I did when he was born and not even that worked..it just made my belly cramp.
Yeah I know my uterous was contracting I just put cramping bc I figured it was common sense for some ppl to know what I was talkin about.. lol
this is so frusterating bc I only had one dose of depo would it last this long in my system? It also made me bleed for 7 months straight!!!
