Going for a run! wish me luck! my weight loss journey :)

[Lydiarose]

Heya im lydie,

I was 8stone pre pregnancy and a size 8.

Im not 10 stone 11iibs and a size 12 im 5ft 3.

this is me 2 months PP. at 11 stone 12iibs.

Horrendous stretch marks

This is me today/the last week.


Pregnancy RUINED my body.

But gave me the most beautiful child in the world.

Ive been doing zumba 1 or mostly 2 hours a week and am attempting to go for a run once/twice a week also which im scared of because i find it so hard any tips?

So my waist has shrank the most my legs have a little also (this is my problem areas) My tummy has also gone down considerably but i still look about 3/4 months pregnant and have a huge muffin top on the last pic you cant really tell but ill post anohter for you too see.


I want to get down to 10stone by 23rd of may.
And 9stone 7iibs by july.

Is this un realistic?

I went from 13stone 1 week after giving birth to 12 stone in 2 months from doing nothing!

I did atkins which took me from 12stone to 11 stone 3iibs in a month.

I am now eating healthily and exercising but im finding it very hard to shift!

Ive gone from 11 stone 2 last weekend to 10 stone 11ibs today which i thank zumba for!




My typical food diary is

Brek. big bowl of Special k with strawberrys between 7am and 8am.

Lunch.Oatcakes with extra light philli and ham salad.

Dinner.WW ready meal,quorn chicken nuggets low fat chips and salad . . . need more ideas!

Last week i had fajitas made with lean mince and salad or pasta with low fat sauce and lowlow cheese.

Anyway thats me
