Broody, overweight & getting frustrated!

[Kelskiii]

Its been a while since I've been on the forums ... having a toddler seems to take up all my time

I was overweight when I fell pregnant, gained 2 1/2stone during pregnancy ... still have 14lbs to go.

I struggled at first with my weightloss as I had really low milk supply & if I cut my calories my milk would drop. I decided to do exercise to try to lose weight, my shape & size has changed massively, I've lost 2 dress sizes & I am the fittest I have ever been ... but my weight just is not going down!!

My daughter decided she wanted to stop breastfeeding last month ... so I have been able to cut my calories & am able to increase my exercise BUT I still haven't lost weight!!

We are hoping to start ttc in the next few months so I am trying my hardest to get this last stone off but I am getting so frustrated!! I am in a bad mood most days as I want another baby so badly I just can't seem to lose this extra weight.

My main reason for wanting to lose it is I don't want to be under a consultant this pregnancy as they weren't very nice to me last pregnancy ... I do weigh quite a bit but I am a size 16 & very fit. The more I seem to want it the harder it is to get there.

So frustrated !!!

Keep going lovely, I think everyone gets to this stage in weight loss where it feels like that last hurdle just won't shift. Have you tried drinking green or herbal teas? I have heard some specific ones are great for assisting weight loss and detoxing the body. Goodluck hun!! Xxx

Thank you babydustcass I have been considering the green teas ... I do not like the taste but I've heard there are some flavoured ones!! Trying to keep myself motivated. Healthy mummy, healthy baby xx
