Hey Ladies,

Those of you taht have recently had their babies and ready to lose some weight, join in this forum and then we can support each other.

Im joining weight watchers on Monday night and asking about the Lactation plan as I am breast feeding.

pre-pregnancy weight -79kgs (usually 63kgs)

9mths pregnant -114kgs

Current weight - 96kgs.

Goal weight- 70kgs

26kgs to lose.

Going to start walking too with the Pram. Great exercise apparently.  Anyone got any advice or wanna share their goals??

$33 to register (tho quite often have free coupons in womans weekly or their website) and $17.90 each week. Definitely worth going - at least for a few months. A lot of us in "the weight loss gang" are WW'ers and we're all doing really well!

Yer there is another thing i was thinking of doing if anyone is keen its called the biggest loser challenge...its basically where you join in get put on the red or blue team. Weigh in each week and the team with the most lost win. It goes for 2 months and each week the leader writes out the exercise directions for the week and you have to do your best to stick to them. Anyone keen? I dont mind doing this....

EXAMPLE!
The minimum daily requirements for the BLC Challenge are to walk for 30 minutes and drink 2L of water a day. So if you are not already doing this, then that in itself will be a challenge!

So to keep the first week simple (since I will not assume we are all at the same level) I have set the following challenges:

1. If you are only walking 30mins each day, then I want you to increase that by 15mins every second day.

2. If you are already walking more than that (for example I do 1 hour every second day) then I want you to try and challenge yourself by increasing your speed or adding some hills to your usual walk.

Each week I will incorporate some toning exercises into the challenge, and this week we will concentrate on working those abs!! You may not think you have them, but believe me they are there just waiting to be shown off when we are all fit and fabulous.

3. Do 3 sets of 15 sit ups/crunches. If you are already a regular 'cruncher' then make that 3 sets of 20!

Do you think maybe we could make it 6 weeks - so up until Christmas. Or do you think 8 weeks is better?
