Hi all
I’m in the process of losing weight for the second time after my second baby!
After my eldest, 5 years ago, I lost 5 stone in a little under a year but eating low carb and walking min 10k steps per day.
Gained a huge chunk back in second pregnancy in 2023, and I’ve found with breastfeeding this time (and looking after 2 kids) low carb isn’t an option, neither is 10k steps every single day.
Anyway, I’ve been on and off “dieting” since Jan but committed to it 10/03, calorie counting 1,600 a day max, and min 10k steps 5 days a week trying for 6.
I’ve lost just over 9lbs, which is steady and consistent weekly but so slow compared to the losses I saw when I was extreme
dieting in the past (under 1,000 or just that usually.) I have another 2 stone to lose.
It looks like I will reach my goal (68kg) by August/September.
Anyone else taking the long route? With the 1 and 5 year old I am at max effort really!
