Back to lose baby weight!

Post by LisaBcan » Sat Oct 08, 2016 1:43 pm

Hi Everyone!

I started NoS a few years ago as a way to recover from a decade long eating disorder and in the process (along with getting really into long-distance cycling) I lost 10lbs taking me to 134lbs on my 5'6'' frame.

Last year I got pregnant and stopped following NoS as I could only eat a small amount at a time. I gained 40lbs and gave birth on August 12th. I now have 20lbs to lose and I am excited to get back to NoS and hopefully lose the weight in a sensible manner.

I'm excited to join this great community again :)

Congratulations on your new baby. Welcome back to NoS. Get a baby seat for your bike when baby is big enough, my son loved it when I took him riding.

Welcome home. Not sure where you'll get without the cycling, but it's a sane way to live, yes? And a good habit to have in place when children are old enough to notice.

Thank you @oolala53 and @Whosonfirst. I also plan to go back to cycling and weightlifting now that I am 8 weeks postpartum. Probably won't get as much cycling in as I did but hopefully lots of stroller walks with help.
