(2006/07) JULY 2006 MTB

YB
My slimming down took a few stages then. 1st stage is after delivering, down to 54kg. Then 2nd stage was when there was a very strong motivation(my sis was getting married, i wan to squeeze into the evening gown) after 1.5yr. I took to atkin's diet(low carb high protein) and I lost 5kg in 2 months. I oso started using oto trimax 2 days ago, no obvious effect yet. u better dun start skipping so soon cos not very good for the womb. Another way to get rid of flabby stomach is to do clunches everyday. Tat one very effective but very tormenting.
 


My motivation is going back work in a month time. If I cant get into my pants I will hv to buy new ones..

I bought pilates videos but no chance to do leh.. only occasionally at night. Now baby sleeping but I wan to sleep also.. Looking forward for weekends coz hubby in and so I can go for my yoga class.
 
Hi Yenny,
My sis is getting married next mth so I got the motivation to slim down fast too...ya, I agree tat crunches is the best, but really tormenting. I've checked with my gynae. He said it's okay to do skipping after 6wks. I was 60kg during preg. After delivery, lost 5kg. Then during confinement lost another 2kg. Now, lost another 1.5kg. But still got long way to go before reaching my pre-preg weight of 45kg.
 
YB
Aiyo, u only put on 15kg. Can get back pre preggie figure very fast. I put on 20kg leh, can u imagine. Now my target is 49kg so another 6/7kg to lose. Sianz... on sun, i went to the gym, work out for the 1st ever since i was pregnant. wah lau, can die man, 30min on the stepper and i was like out of breath. sometimes, i think tat wong lilin is really solid, only put on 6kg when she was pregnant. then after delivery, she dun look like she had two kids at all. A hot mama....

Sometimes i wonder whether my hubby gets turned off by my body. As u know, guys are very visual animals. So cannot give them an excuse to stray...
 
Hi yenny,
I really wonder y wong li ling only put on 6kg during preg. Tat means after deducting the weight of fetus, placenta, water bag fluid, she didn't put on any extra weight!!

My friend only put on about 8kg but she was vomiting thru-out her whole preg. Tat's y she didn't put on weight. But still, she can't fit in her pre-preg clothes at all. Cos her hips also expanded.
 
Wah u mommies very slim. I am so heavy.. dun dare to announce my weight here.

YB,
i think u better dun skip. not very gd for ur womb if u wanna have another kid.
 
YB,

They have many different classes over there, like pilates, yoga, kickboxing, aerobics, dance classes oso. Oh ya, they got this call stretch fit exercise oso, very gd for we all lahz.

You can go for any of the classes when u sign up the membership lor.
 
B4 delivery i was 67kg, den after BB come out, 60kg. 2 months liao onli lost 2 kg.
Haiz, me last time pre pregnancy 52kg, now 58kg, like very easy hor, got another 6 kgs to go onli but hor last time i wear S to M size 1 lor, now wear L size.

Then I still purposely go and buy measuring tape, wah piang, even more 'gek sim'. Got 4 inches to lose from waist. den butt 2 inches. Haiz, den my elder daughter say, "Mummy, you now very fat hor look like Jelly lehz! *Pengz*

Aiyo, when say bye bye, haha, the arms oso say bye bye.
 
Hi Hong,
But my gynae gave me his approval for skipping leh...he said womb will only drop when there's no elasticity (when old age etc). Skipping will not cause tat...in fact even when running, our womb will also jump a bit, right?
 
Hi Mich, I was 54kg before pregnant and gained 11 kg. After birth, lost 6kg. Last measured 2 weeks ago I was 58kg. Yup. Am wearing 2 size larger also - now XL!!

People say I look slim - that's because I'm tall but I think it's even worst coz if tall and flabby this equat to big size.

Will try to do skipping later when hubby back.
 
Hi,

i was 56kg during pregnancy (gained 13kg). Now 46 to 47kg. Stil got 3 to 4kg to lose back to 43kg. But dare not further lose cos bf.
 
wow.. all talking abt wt...
then i better siam...

but hor.. lucida - wt 58kg needs to wear XL meh?
wat brand is tat? i am much much much heavier than u, i can still fit in L leh.

I shop at BYSI, LMG, LVER etc.
the shops u go to really cater to small size pple huh?
 
Envy..

I am wearing L or XL tops but i cant find bottom. so sad.

Surprisingly i can fit in BYSI L skirt.

BTW, anyone tried Angel wet wipe?
 
Lucinda - IC, I guess I will just have to cut his nails when he is asleep. BTW, what do you use to cut your bb's nails?

Z-Lia - That's the worse ever...fridge broken-down. Thank goodness you could safe your EBM. If not, all effort lost liao!

Mich - Love the photos!

Wow...so fast already gone for 2 classes...keep up the good work! BTW, tell me more about the pilates classes at Kovan, how many times per week, what time avail, etc. Maybe I will join you.

DPoint - Don't worry coz I am sure you will get back into your clothes pretty soon! Chia yu!


Wah....this weight subject really depressing coz I think I am the only one who has to lose like 10kg or so before I can go back to my pre-PG weight...haiz!!!
 
hi lucida

i am in the same boat as u. going back to work and trying very hard to continue bf. started my girl on 1 formula feed a day a rew days ago. dunno why feeling so guilty. was so reluctant to start her on formula despite the fact that i have to start work 2 oct. my work place not bf friendly.

try Motherlove's "More Milk Plus" products. since i stopped taking, ms decreased significantly. used to be able to pump 200+ml in 5-6 hrs before. now need 9-10 hrs to get that amt.
 
hi all..sigh.. think my elder gal is giving me hell. she's been crying all night. im so angry with her. haha. think i'll take my boy in tomorrow and leave her in my mil's room to see if things get better.
 
Hi MTDT, I'm referring to pants lor. WEnt to Esprit and the pants is those that is slightly below waist level. My pelvic bone expanded. Used to be able to wear M for those cutting but now, got to buy XL.

Well yesterday night before sleep tried to put on the Osim wrap. But after couple of minutes took it out. Not used to it. Anyway, will try again tonight.
 
Hi Millie, You mean once you stop taking the Motherlove "More Milk Plus" MS will decrease? So must continue to take lor..
 
hey mich,
you go kovan for the amore? I love the pictures of your kids! i go kovan every tue for the i can read class for my daughter and will be there 3.30pm to 5pm to jalan jalan till she finish...i always pass by there but never step in...$640 quite a big sum . Its for the unlimited class one ??
YB, I also need to lose wt soon. My brother's wedding is in 6mths time. If don't slim down how to face all the relatives and then have to buy new clothes...Now, I've some relatives who say.. "this time you fatter than last time your pregnancy" sigh.....
 
JP,

tHANKS! Basically, pilates helps to tone up our body especially tummy area. They have 5 classes in a week. Their timing have evening, morning oso. Dependin whether weekend or weekday.

Millie,

i was taking motherlove milk plus oso. help abit onli for me.

Kin,

Thanks! yup,amore at kovan. ic... yup, $640 for unlimited class one.
 
kin,
ur gal attending "i can read". i intended to let my gal try too. when did u started her? which stage is she in now? how u find the class, does she improve in her english?
 
seem like some PD will give baby jab at 6 weeks , some will give at 2 months , so we should listen to which one ? so confuse ??

is 6 in 1 better or 5 in 1 ?
 
Hi mummies,
really envious of mums who got back their figures, mine's totally gone ! have lost 20kg, still have 7 kg to go...sigh...
I believe bfing really helps to shed the extra fats, so for bfing mummies, just let ur bb latch on 2 "lipo" away the fats bah...

Hi White lady,

according to bb health booklet schedule, the 5 in 1 or 6 in 1 jabs is for 3 mths,4 mths n 5 mths.Polyclinic follows this schedule 1.
 
Hello kite, u missed me huh? It's so heartening to know that pple hv not forgotten me.

I'm very bz with boy boy cos no help, it's me alone. Tiring but fulfilling. This is the 1st time I'm logging into this forum after weeks. Looks like today's topic is weight loss. I lost almost all my weight gain, went back to pre-pregnancy size already, can fit all my clothes alr. Think the residual bit has gone to the boops and some fat stores for bfg purposes. Boy boy is now on TBF.

I saw your June posting, I'm intending to bring bb for pneumococcal jab. Will have to take 4 jabs altogether. Rotavirus as well. Since I most likely will send bb to infant care center, he needs all the immunization he can get...
 
Hi jurong_gal

Meaning after baby jabs in hospital at birth , then the next will be at 3 months ? but thought most PD say 6 weeks ?
 
Hi Kite,
I used to be petite too, but now have to wear M or L size already. Really very depressing. sigh...

Hi Lucida,
I started using abdominal binder during my confinement, so I'm pretty used to it...can even sleep with it on.

Hi Kin,
At least u got the next 6mths to slim down. My sis's wedding is next mth!! So I only got about 3wks to slim down. So stress!!We gota motivate each other!!

Hi Lok,
Wah!! U managed to lose all ur weight? Care to share wat u did?
 
YB,

I think breastfeeding helps but in your case, it's not an option. Guess I'm also lucky in the sense that I'm petite to start with, didn't put on that much weight (10kg) and no expansion in hips during pregnancy. Lastly, handling a newborn all by myself, it's a natural slimming process!
 
Hi Lok

Welcum back :p...It's a long time since we last see your postings in the June mummies

BTW, are u a june or july mummy? You taking the full 3 mths ML?
 
whitelady,
why not chk ur bb booklet if u are not sure. if u are not taking 6 in 1 then u just follow the timing in the booklet. u wun go wrong.
 
stephanie,

that's the gd thing abt working in a mnc --- nobody is indispensable. my senior mgt are all europeans, so 6 mth is very common for them since it's the labour law in their country.
 
MTDT,

Thanks for the numbers for the samples.

I'm trying to consodilate the emails together for other brand diapers as well and will post it here once I get answers from them.
 
mich - no problems...
wow.. more samples? wait for ur list sia.
happy.gif


LOK - I also MNC... but no such luxury leh.
stupid company... come back only load with pass 3 mths reports to do! sian!

Hi White lady,

Aft the hospital jab, there's a 2nd hep b jab at 1 month but no 5 in 1 and 6 in 1 then. My frens bb also start the 5 in 1 only at 3 mths old ley...
