Weight Struggle

Losing weight is so hard for me especially when it goes up and down I was just down 80 lbs going from 280 to 219 and now I’m back to 240 this is so depressing and I workout at least 3 times a week and don’t each much anymore even gave up meat and drink nothing but water but I’m not seeing any changes at all. Anybody have any suggestions I’m all ears

I deal with lots of struggles too . Make sure your not doing a lot of weight because this will Cause you to gain muscle weight... try to add a new workout into your routine, I notice when my body get use to me doing the same thing I don’t lose weight I stay the same. Try juicing/ smoothie a few days out the week for a nice switch up. If all fails a thyroid check up won’t hurt. Hope this was helpful and good luck

Hey! Currently trying to lose before conceiving. It's a battle. But dont forget to eat. It seems logical to "us", not to eat and workout but you really.have to focus on calories in and out. Use an app to track it helps so much!

Ik you said you gave up meat, but Keto has down wonders for my entire family! I have PCOS and my dr suggest Keto for me to lose weight. So my entire family did it. It has helped with everyone weight wise and has improved our overall moods and eating habits!

Try a combo of intermittent fasting and low carb. Lately I’ve been trying to reduce my eating hours to 8 in the day (first meal at 11am, last by 7pm) and I’ve been finding it helps.

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
