What do you think

I gained fifty pounds with my twins. After the birth, I lost 27. However, in a weeks time I gained ten back. I am still breAstfeeding one of them. I did have gestational diabetes that was controlled by diet alone. I haven't lost any weight. My boys are now nine months old and I feel like I am a disaster. I have diastasis recti and an umbilical hernia. My diet currently is not bad at all! I don't know why the scale won't budge. I wiuld love yo squeeze in dome exercise but dont know when i would. Please help?!

Hey I feel your pain, I am in the same situation 9 months postpartum with triplets, it's SOOO hard to have time for yourself.

Here are some things that I have tried and am thinking of trying:

A if you have anyone that helps you during the day, skip out for even just a 1530 minute walk, or better yet a run I have done this a few times but it's getting harder now that they are getting older

B my hubby and I go for a walk every evening with the babies weather permitting makes me feel good but still no results but it's still makes me feel good that I got out.

C I will be getting a jogging stroller and while my morning help is here I am thinking of going for a 15 minute run times 3 and will just switchup the babies OR on weekends I will get my hubby to watch 2 while I run.

D sometimes in the morning, I go out for a walk or run with the dogs while the babies are still sleeping.

E I also use the babies as weights and so lunges, squats and raise them over my head to exercise my arms.

I hope some of these might help ypu out. Good luck it's super hard I know.

I gained even more weight after they were born too. I was just eating what was easy to get by.Finally had to get honest with myself on what I was eating. Cut out ALL white flour and sugar as well as all artificial ingredients and preservatives and the pounds flew off. Down 50 pounds since the new year and I never feel hungry

After both pregnancies I wasn't really able to take off the weight until after I'd stopped nursing. The same thing has happened to friends of mine.

hahah - I love this!  I was just talking to DH the other day about how I was worried about losing the weight after the girls come and we joked about doing this!
