I am terrible with food. I am obsessed with chocolate and cake and get the shakes if i do not have chocolate. I can do without meals but not without a cup of tea an chocolate biscuit. I cannot exercise much because of my condition but i am aiming to do some once back on medication. These celebrities do not even look like they have had babies let alone receintly. I am going to work hard but try not to obsess about it i want to enjoy my kids. This will be my last baby. I am 31 now. My sister is pregnant aswell and due same time as me. She sheds weight really fast and i do not unfortunately. I only got to look at food and i put it on. Michelle Wales (UK) |

Maybe you eat less than you should. Have you ever kept a food diary and checked if you take in enough calories to meet your needs? Because if you don't, your body will necessarily get accustomed to little sustenance and keep the metabolism down. If you loose weight, you loose muscles, not fat, that decreases the energy the body needs and you start gaining though you eat very little because your body thinks there's a famine and it needs everything it can get. It's a vicious circle. End of story: It's really really important to eat enough and eat healthy things. Don't go below your own basal metabolic rate. To loose weight it's best to be between 70 and 80% of your total metabolic rate. There are calculators on the net to get to know your own rates. http://fddb.info/db/en/index.html There is also a database to check on the calories of your food and how much protein, fat or carbs are in it. After a while you'll know how much you ate without it. You'll be shocked though what amounts of sugar and fat hide in some inconspicuous things. Most salad dressings are mean. Apples are little sugar bombs, oranges are better. I'm so glad I never liked them much, I'm more into vegetables if I need anything for between meals. And recently a friend told me to do my salad dressing with just lemon juice, herbs and a spoon olive oil. It's great. I still use yoghurt for cucumber salad though... but cucumbers are water with dietary fiber, so what?
