You seem to be doing excellent to me, don’t beat yourself up too much- baby steps are good!!
Do you have time to fit a bit of exercise into a day?? You may be getting enough as it is, which is why you can cheat and still lose 4 pounds, which is amazing.

Great work!

I was thinking about trying to start dieting, but I’m having the same situation as you. The breastfeeding is making me constantly famished. At this point, I’m not willing to fight it, but I know the day is coming when I’ll have to take care of it.

I’m with Cass. A four pound weight loss is amazing. When April pulls that off (week after week because she apparently is a weight loss machine) I always have to congratulate her and then silently hate myself and my stomach roll.

I’m on an swiveling office chair, standing up, which really is quite dangerous, clapping for you. You’ve made the right first steps and it will get easier as Evie transitions into more solids and you get more of your body back. Congratulations on your first week!

Can I just say that 4lbs in one week is so freaking great that you should be standing on a chair clapping for yourself rather then giving yourself this “talking to” about having cravings. You’re sustaining a WHOLE person here - VIA BOOB. I haven’t done this yet, but I hope to, SOON (please let it be soon, please please please the gods of pregnant women give me pity and bring this baby to an evicted status soon, soon. soon.).

So I’m in my living room - very pregnant just standing up (chair climbing at 9months isn’t advised) clapping for you. And I say that Weight Watchers while fantastic and effective and all of those things is completely and totally hate-able.
