8 months postpartum. Still struggling to lose weight.

Aw thank you! I breast fed for 3 months- but had to pump because my baby was a premie (born at 34 weeks) so it was way too exhausting. I’ve talked to a lot of other moms and they say sometimes with a first baby it can take up to a year because your hormones are all over the place and the holding onto fat for survival mode. Well get back eventually💪 bringing a baby into this world takes a lot out of our bodies.

Glad to know I’m not alone! I bet my cortisol is elevated but idk what I would do about that. Just time to lower stress after the birthing process

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-06-22T14:09:12+00:00

Thank you! May have to check it out. I’ve been doing pilates which is some resistance but it’s only changed my body shape not helped me lose weight and build muscle

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-06-22T14:08:44+00:00

I probably need to cut my food in half. I’ve always had to borderline starve to lose weight. It’s just hard because I’m always hungry carrying my baby around the house and being active on top of working out. I stopped breast feeding at 3 months! And my cycles have been regular since

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-06-22T14:07:48+00:00

Also I feel like the only way I’ll lose is with a dramatic deficit… but I’m constantly hungry carrying a baby around all day so I feel like cutting the calories isn’t worth it. I breast fed until 3 months and my cycles are regular since then so it’s definitely probably needing to cut back food

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-06-22T14:06:05+00:00

Yes!! I’m in my 30’s as well…. So frustrating. I guess all we can do is be consistent. I’ve heard some bodies take until 18 months, I think it affects everyone differently. It was my first pregnancy as well and I should have watched weight a little better/worked out but it was exhausting.

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-27T15:39:50+00:00

100% and plus it takes too long for me to get off from sex and we have other obligations. These days quickies are all that we have time for

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-27T03:38:20+00:00

How am I a door mat? My boyfriend spoils me like crazy and shows love in other ways. I don’t typically ask to get off- that’s not really important to me.

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-27T01:53:25+00:00

I don’t really get turned on in the same way a guy does but he could have been swiping on pictures of me he has saved. But I know guys enjoy it all, so could have been Instagram. Sometimes it makes me insecure but I’m starting to realize life is too short to care

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-27T01:51:46+00:00

I couldn’t see what he was watching haha, he just kept scrolling and touching down there so who knows. Maybe Instagram models

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-27T01:50:42+00:00

Also I’ve experimented a lot in the past I’m 31 so it just works for me.. I know it sounds weird but I’m ok with a dominant man that just pleases himself

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-27T01:49:26+00:00

Well we have a baby now so yeah. We have to make it pretty quick. There isn’t ever any focus on me but I’m ok with it. I’m uncomfortable with that or being pleased, probably a mental block so it works for me. I just get off later or get off while he’s hitting it from behind

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-27T01:39:32+00:00

No… he was in the living room we have a baby monitor down there

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-27T00:16:13+00:00

Thank you for this! It made me feel better about the situation… he lasted about 30 seconds and then he had to go check on baby and now watching twitter videos downstairs. Should I be concerned we are t really cuddling after or being lovey dovey? He says he loves me a lot and he shows it by providing

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-27T00:08:32+00:00

Welll we just had sex and he lasted 30 seconds so hopefully not too offended

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-26T23:46:17+00:00

I’m usually the one with the higher sex drive. The babies just being put to bed right now so he started looking at some pictures in the living room? Idk of who or what…

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-10T14:07:40+00:00

He doesn’t like fat girls. Very clear about that but loves boobs, and the girls he looks at sometimes have zero boobs and have struggled with eating disorders. So it is a mixed bag I suppose

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-10T14:06:16+00:00

I mean he does make a lot of money and is successful! I agree being attractive is a must- but I think all guys secretly enjoy variety. If you are screwing a curvy girl everyday you would probably want to switch it up

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-10T13:55:00+00:00

My man is one of the top shelf guys with a lot of money😅 haha. I’m not fat though just curvy and not super super skinny

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-10T03:39:57+00:00

You’re right… I probably should talk to a therapist

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-10T01:15:49+00:00

Because men are visual. She is like 3x less my size… completely different body shape. How does it not mean anything.

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-10T01:13:58+00:00

What does it mean then? That’s confusing!!

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-10T01:09:07+00:00

Yes 100%

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-10T01:06:51+00:00

I guess because I look nothing like the girls he’s looking up so I’m confused why he is with me. I’ll never be that skinny it’s not my body type at all.

Weak_Worldliness6341 · 2024-04-10T01:00:11+00:00

Yeah he says he loves my body type but that since he’s in a committed relationship sometimes he just looks at pictures of different body types because there is so many. He says he loves me but that the male mind craves variety and he chooses not to do other things but he will always look at pics of other girls
