To just have no idea how to loose remaining baby weight?

Dc 2 is 11 months and I still carry too much excess weight. With my first baby most of the weight came off after about six months.

Granted, I did walk much more everyday after I had dc1, whereas now I drive mostly and don't work out. I don't eat a lot of crap, am still bf but feel very hungry in the evenings so have a bowl of shredded wheats or similar before going to bed. Dc2 is still waking for nightly feeds about a couple of times a night so I feel like I need some food before the night to handle the frequent waking.

My biggest 'sin' is eating dark chocolate I guess, which being so tired from broken sleep is a hard habit to break. I have a post section overhang too, which bothers me slightly less but I am feeling rather down on myself. I am a size 14-16 at the moment but used to be a 10-12.

Today a colleague asked if I was pregnant which I am not. Hmm. Aibu to think this weight is never going to come off?

Exercise is the only solution. Diet made no difference to me until I started going to the gym again.

You don't say how much chocolate you're eating Hmm but stop. If you're really hungry replace it with a less sugary snack which will be no where near as nice but will help you break the habit like a few nuts or an oat cracker.

Oh and GIVE YOURSELF A BREAK!! At only 11 months on I don't think most people are back to pre-baby weight/shape. Are they? what do I know it took me 6 years
