Yup!
I had my girl 4 1/2 weeks ago and I am trying to loose 40 lbs still.. I lost 20 already..
At my last day of pregnancy I weighed in at 183lbs, and I'm only 5'2".. After labor I was a 168lbs... Now I am 160... I can't really work out yet, because I still have to go to my 6 weeks check up.. But I walk daily with the stroller about 40 minutes, and I watch what I eat..
I wanna be 120 again.. I don't set myself a date when I 'have' to reach my goal but my goal is at least by next spring to summer... Wanna look good in a bikini and miniskirt again.. But the earlier the better of course... No rushing though..
Gotta get rid of that extra love we got here

Hi Yummy Mummies! I am reading a book called Slummy Mummy and the title of this post reminds me of it because there are references to yummy mummies in the book. Anyway I would like to join. I have 5 kids. Ages 13, 12, 9, 3, and 21 months. I need to get back on track. I lost about 75 pounds so far but I have been stuck here. I would like to lose 30-35 more pounds. Hoping to get there by Summer.
Good luck on your journey. I am glad I came across this.

I'm a mom of a 6yr old and a 3 yr old and I work over nights, so i'm a tired mom all the time. My eating habits are getting better and i'm building up to start working out. I'm going to lose 20lbs, and feel good about myself again
Great girls. At least we have a little group now. Bellwix I have a 6 and and a 2/12 year old too. Do you exercise with them? I push my daughter in the pram and my son rides his bike. It helps because he is so fast and I have to keep my heart rate up to catch up to him.
fat2fit sounds like you have a really, really busy household. When do you get time to exercise? And congrats on the weight loss so far!

Thanks! It is usually crazy in my house. Around May of this year I got tired of sitting around so I emailed all my friends to see if anyone would be interested in running. We started the Couch to 5K program and out of about 8 original people, 3 completed it and a couple more got close. Because of schedule changes the running club now consists of 2 people. But, we are dedicated and we run 3 nights a week(at 9pm). Usually 3.5 to 5 miles. Last weekend we ran a 10K(non-stop) race which was a huge accomplishment for me. I never thought I would be able to run over 6 miles. There is an 8K race this weekend that I will probably do. I try to do the races so I have something to keep me going. If I can just get my eating back in check I would be able to get to goal easier. Talk to you later. Have a great weekend everyone!
Holy moly! You must be fit! That is so good!
It is supposed to rain here all week so I have no idea how I am supposed to get my cardio done this week. I could do a few exercise dvds, but it's just not the same as being outside. So much healthier in the fresh air.
I might just use this week to pump up the weights lol. Better than nothing hey.

Can I be a yummy mummy too?
Hi shae
Thought I would pop in and say hello. I have a son and daughter who like to keep me in check. My eldest watches every single thing I eat and asks is that low fat? The whole family have switched to low fat milk and wholegrain bread. I still make them chips once a week but I have a slimfast meal instead. They are oven chips anyway so yuck I am not tempted. My daughter is 5 and loves to jump in and do exercise video even if I do sometimes fall over her or she wanders off with my weights.
Start weight 164 lbs
Current weight 160 lbs ( 1 week into diet )
Target weight;; I would be a very yummy mummy at 125-135lbs

Hi skinnyone. My children take a huge interest in the foods I prepare and eat. I don't think I've ever used words like low fat with them, but I do talk to them about good fats. I talk to them about healthy options and explain the different benefits of different foods. I always use myself and my husband as examples of what they can become and how they will always feel if they keep putting these foods into their bodies.
I hope to always be an excellent and healthy role model for them. I try so hard to build their vocabulary with healthy food names. I want them to grow up enjoying healthy foods, never feeling like they are missing out, still allowing a treat here and there, that sort of thing. I just want them to be healthy.
