Making sure that an individual can Lose Weight Safe is what many individuals look to when selecting a diet plan. For some people, losing weight means that they talk with a weight specialist in regards to the healthy way that they need to lose it. Thanks for introducing new treatment for us.

Parts of the pilates session are too hard for me too.  It's difficult going from lying down to sitting upright just using your abs when you have none!  The people on the DVD are usually on their 5th or 6th rep and I'm still trying to get up for my first

 

I'll get there though.  I used to have strong abs once upon a time and I intend to have them again before another baby ravages my body.

 

Does everyone else still have strongly defined split down the middle of their tummy where the abs parted?  It's like I have two tummies side by side - I think that's the only part I hate about my post baby body.

Yeah I still have the seperation (although I have heard it can take up to a year to correct).

And this may sound strange ... but the part I "dislike" most (as I dislike quite a lot at the mo)about my post baby body is my boobs! Its not comfy running with boobs! lol

*snorts* There's no excuse for me to still have mine then.

 

I've always had to wear 2 bras when doing cardio so when I start running I'll do the same thing.  I also need to buy a new sports bra because I've gone up a couple of cups since having Michaela so I'll get a really good supportive one (I hear the Berlei's really good) and I'll wear a soft cup sports bra over the top of that and then a singlet or t-shirt.

They say you should have at least 8 cups (or 2 litres) of liquid daily but I don't know what the max is.  I drink heaps and have been told in the past (by busy bodies) that I drink too much but I go by whether I'm thirsty and IMO if I'm drinking because I'm thirsty then surely I'm not drinking too much.

If you're thirsty, drink! JMO.

I have anywhere from 2L on a bad day to about 3L - though maybe a bit more sometimes if I have herbal tea.

I tend to go through about 2-3 pump bottles .. although Im terrible on weekends and get through 1 if Im lucky.

mrsmojo ... now I have boobs .. I wear a bra, then a bra gym top over that (for extra compression) and then a t-shirt.

I remember back when I could run with no bra at all!

I've not been able to do that since I was 10 so I guess I'm just used to them but my breasts went from a c cup pre baby to a dd cup post baby so I'm concerned about how much they'll stretch if they bounce around too much so am going to make sure they're always strapped in tight and can't move at all when I do cardio.

p.s. I'm not complaining - I love having bigger breast, I just hope that they're not going to get too saggy otherwise I'll be getting a breast lift when I've finished having kids

I drink a litre a day no problem. Which I know needs to increase for summer.

I was told if you are thirsty, it is a bad sign.
But was just told recently you can drink too much water, your body loses some mineral....can't remember which one.

Thanks
