The Baby Weight Battle Begins

The baby weight I must lose

With everything that's going on in my life with my businesses, the events I attend, and relationship and my beautiful baby daughter, it's easy to lose track of time.

I was horrified to realise that Ivy turns one next month.

Oh my god. 12 months old. And I still haven't lost the baby weight. What do they say? 9 months to put it on, 9 months to take it off. I have friends that dropped their weight in 2 months. What on earth have I been doing? I never thought in a million years that I'd still be carrying the weight at this point in time.

Don't get me wrong, I've lost over half of it and I fit in to some of my pre-baby clothes, but I haven't dropped all the weight, which means I still have A LOT of clothes that are hanging sadly neglected in my wardrobe.

This calls for desperate action.

I need to hit my goal weight (60kg) by Ivy's birthday. That means I have to lose 7kg by May 30th. It's that simple.

And I have a plan.

Step 1. Drink 2L of water a day. Everyone says it, I think about it, but I've never done it.
Step 2. Book in more Hypoxi sessions at the North Adelaide boutique. These have always worked wonders on me and because I've been slack, all my hard work in October has been squandered.
Step 3. Follow the '28 Day (Breastfeeding Friendly) Diet & Exercise Plan from www.losebabyweight.com.au

I've tried Hypoxi before and had great results so I know that will definitely get me back on track and when I discovered the diet & exercise plan - I know it was worth looking at!

The 28 day plan's tag line was "The weight loss plan for mums created by nutrition and exercise experts to help you lose your baby weight and feel at your best possible health." Sounds like it was meant for me.

The best thing about all of this is that if everything goes to plan, I'll be looking & feeling great just in time for Ivy's party. How exciting!

Now I just need to get past tonight's degustation at D'Artagnan in North Adelaide and it can all begin from tomorrow...
