Healthy eating and please don't starve your self. You need lots of energy to keep up with your little ones. Drink lots of water and involve the whole family in an exercise program.  Running, hiking, swimming and maybe join a health club. anything but find a motivation point. a dress you would like to fit in to one day or a healthy weight. remember it took you 18 months ( 9 months with each kid) give it at least that to take it off.  You can do it just take the first step.

The best diet for anyone, whether they need to lose 10 pounds or 100 pounds is a balanced one.  Eat lots of vegetables and fruits, some grains, and some protein.  Very low fat or very low carb diets deprive your body of needed nutrients.  Weight Watchers is a good program, as is the Biggest Loser Club.  There are lots of good programs available.  The most important thing is to make sure the one you choose is one you can stick with!  And, exercise is key no matter what you are eating.

I would suggest the Medifast Diet from take Shape fro Life. It is healthy and really easy to do. I lost 25 lbs. from it so far. It teaches you to eat 5-6 meals a day every 2-3 hours and you will lose weight quickly and healthy. I hope this helps.

excersise go for a walk.and you should try a few veggies theyre good.just start with broccoli and cauliflower with ranch(not  so healthy but you get a taste for it)baby carrots are good.if you have a deficet of 500 calories every week you should lose about 2 lbs a week,any thing more is kind of unhealthy.and have patience and keep to whatever excercises you are doing.the weight didnt go on overnight,dont expect to lose it that fast.

WHAT to eat for losing weight\n\n• Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, especially NC (negative calorie) food.\n\n* Print these lists. They will be your ... "Bible", from now on !\n* Dill and parsely - include them in all your salads. Also ognion + garlic.\n* Try eat mostly fresh vegs & fruits (whenever possible, of course)\n* If you really want a book, then check this out: The Negative Calorie Diet Workbook & Cookbook - eBook (Win95/98 only). Read more about this e-book here.\n\n\n• Eat fish, chicken, beef, pork. (preferences are in this order)\n\n* If you are a vegetarian, then ignore this!\n* Avoid fat meat\n\n\n• Eat 2-3 slices of bread/day. Don't EVER exclude bread from your diet!\n\n• Snacks between meals (if needed): apples, oranges, grepfruits and other NC fruits\n\n* Don't cheat ... NO cookies, chips, candies, brownies etc! \n* EVEN if they have "low fat" indication... They might have low fat, yet they can have lots of CALORIES !!!\n\n\n• About rice, potatoes, beans, [xxx]nuts, pastry, pasta... you know!\n\n* Don't eat too much of those, at least during the first weeks of the diet. I'm not a low carb addict, but I've noticed weight gains if consuming those in large quantities, especially when associated with other foods.\n* If you like them a lot, try and eat them like one meal. A nice delicious plate of spaghetti could be your lunch (never dinner!), followed by a nice big apple. These rich starch foods are not good for dinner!\n* At dinner time, chose mainly large mixed veggies salads... with fish, lean meat or cheese (if you are not a vegetarian). \n\n if u want to lose weight the best food to it are baked potatoes with nothing on it. no salt no nothing just plain. u can eat a 10000000000 baked potatoes till ur stuff and not gain a pound.  i heard that from a weight loss tape. the best drink is water or gatorade. thats a start then when you work out do some taeboo. if u want a macine. run with dumbells on a treadmill. u could do the rocky workout. but thats a new story. u could use a butterfly macine i think it works the abs

The best diet is just to eat when your hungry and stop when\nyou are no longer hungry. Crunches and the stepper may be\nbest for exercise.

What your doing is fine, try to work other exercises into your day. take the stairs instead of the elevator. walk your kids to school. quick stuff like that.   Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fresh (not canned that’s bad) fruits and vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol and no smoking  if that applies. Some juice but make sure its all natural, because the ones that aren't are loaded with sugar and a leading cause in diabetes in children and adults. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart.  You also need to stay away from any sports drinks unless you’ve just had a long workout and then you need to limit yourself.  Most atheletes mix Gatorade with water because its two  complex for your body to get all the nutrients out of.  It needs to be diluted.  These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without.  Then work from there.  Remember these are  perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it.  If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day.  Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit.  Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night.  You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly.  This is an important factor of losing weight.  Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.  \n A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me. Also for more info on the benefits of water go to www.watercure.com Good Luck! Honestly if you need anything else don't hesitate to IM me, krista_girl86 even if you don't pick me as best answer, i'd be happy to help.  Also check out the website for the tv show The Biggest Loser on NBC.  There are many, many helpful facts on there.

My first son, I lost the weight easily...with my second son it was harder. I cut my portion sizes down a little, drank alot more water, and did alot of walking (cause that was easiest for me...just put the kids in the stroller and go). It give you time with your kids and it's the best to get back to pre-baby weight. You can try sit ups in the evening before you go to bed to tighten your tummy. I did alot of this and was back in my old jeans before my son turned 9 months old. It's not fast, but you do see results after a few months. I didn't have the time to keep a regular workout.

Try something like slimming world, it generally does not involve much changes to your diet, and does not mean seperate meals for the rest of the family either. It is very healthy, and a kind of long-lasting weight loss rather than fad diets

Sure. That is easy.  I cut out all sugar, white flour, anything with corn syrup,  and ALL processed foods!  I lost 30 lbs. eating this way without exercise.  Taking care of kids all day, and cleaning house is exhausting enough! If you can't hunt it or gather it, don't eat it.  This will force you to eat VERY healthy, and the weight will fly off! You don't have to count calories.  Just eat when you are hungry.  Increase your dairy intake (studies have shown that it helps burn fat).  Important tip:  Shop only on the OUTER rim of the supermarket!  Switch to organic foods whenever possible.  This will help your body get rid of toxins.  You'll look better, feel healthier, AND lose weight!

The "Eat normal portions" Diet.\nThat is the best way to lose weight.\nNo supersizing\nNo eating everything on plate like ma/dad told me years ago (eat half, take half home)\nSmall plate not large plate.\nGood luck with this issue.

The previous answer said the best diet would be to not spend money on stuff that wont work. What are you doing to lose weight. Everyone out their has diffrent challenges. Most people need some kind of support to lose weight. How much money are you spending on your meals every day. I mean meals snack pop etc. It adds up. I can show you a way to lose weight and still eat the foods you love and get healthier. It will cost you less to lose weight then it cost you to gain it. I saved money on my grocery bill.\n\nView my website for more info.

Eat a BALANCED diet (don't starve yourself, and know that it's alright to occasionally indulge) and excercise regularily (make it fun, go for a walk, take the stairs instead of escalators) are the best ways to lose weight.

A healthy diet will take about two pounds a week off on average.  You're young and your metabolism may rebound slightly faster than most particularly if you maintain a reasonable physical fitness routien.  \n\nDon't be in too much of a rush it's hard work to loose weight and remember you must maintain the activity level ater the weight is lost.  Or it will come back on and bring extra weight with it.  Take your time slow and steady wins the race and you want to be healthy for the whole rest of your life.  \n\nRemember too if you are careful to maintain a healthy lifestyle you will influence your future children to do the same it is an excellent thing that you are doing this at an early age.  I for one am very very proud of you and if you ever need anyone to talk to about it feel free to contact me.  \n\nWay to go!!!!!

If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights.

at 5ft 6in 115 to 155 lbs is considered a healthy weight for you. so you have about 25 lbs to lose thats not too bad. You could try slimfast or if you drink alot of pepsi or something try to cut back and walk. or try eating healthier snacks. after having my kids the weight took about a year to come off. Good luck.
