Needing to lose what we can by May group (anyone?!)

DS2 10 wks today, in 9wks 2 days we have his Christening and I CAN'T be this big for it

Am not planning a mad diet, I have SW tools to help me (just not going to a group, did the plan before I got pregnant) but I sooo need to watch what I am eating, which I am as BF, but still the chocolate and crisps are appearing in me a little too often

Anyone else out there have something they need to lose for in May and want to chat, motivate one another for?

I would like to join you if that's ok?

I had my DD in Dec and still look like a professional darts player with my empty paunch.

I'd like to get rid of it by May in order to fit into my previous wardrobe and look attractive again!

Hi Poodlepusher, course you can join
Are you following any kind of diet/plan in particular or just applying willpower?

Thanks.

Erm well i am trying to eat pears and apples and bananas as my snacks instead of evil things. So I guess its willpower rather than a strict plan, as such

I do eat very healthily, its just about finding the energy to up the ante and lose the weight. I know I can do it, its just that I've never had two tiny children before (18 mths, 3 mths)...

Yes, yes, I need to drop a stone by May! I've lost just over a stone of baby weight so far (had DD in June and still BFing), and now just have the last stone to go to get the magic land of pre-children weight.

I need some help and motivation with food. I'm going to push through the month going to the gym 5 days/week, but I still struggle to control food intake.
