Started doing 16:8 a week ago (with some flexibility for NYE, but still); I’m 9 months postpartum (33F). I stopped breastfeeding a couple of weeks ago; before that I didn’t feel like dieting was right. But now that we’re over nursing I finally feel like taking care of my weight again…not that I gained too much during pregnancy (around 10 kg), but I feel like I allowed myself to eat way more than I used to during that time, and also crappier foods (my pregnancy+postpartum happened during the worst part of Covid/lockdowns in my country, which didn’t help, lol). I’m happy to have found IF, bc I find it’s easy to implement whilst taking care of baby.
We lost our scales while moving house, but I’m guessing I’m about 67kg+ (\~150lb) right now, at 1.64cm tall. I train 3-4 times a week, sometimes I add one additional HIIT-like session, plus I go on walks with the stroller everyday. I’d like to loose 5kg or so till the end of February, but mostly to reduce the ugly belly pouch I got after pregnancy. Any tips you guys have are appreciated :)
Congratulations!! I started IF about one year ago after breastfeeding was over for my second baby. It is amazing. I wish I knew about it sooner. What better way to lose weight and save your precious mama time too.
