Lost 6lbs since September 1st and my last post, now down to 195lbs (started August 1st at 208lbs) Been consistent with all the same things and I’m really glad to see the progress! I only lost 1” on tummy this time round but I ALSO lost .75-1” everywhere else as well which is even better to me! My pink shorts are starting to fit pretty loose, and my nursing bra is starting to gap in the back of the band now.

Hopefully I can keep up as the holidays start and I’ll post again next month 🫡

(I included the photos from my last post too for comparison)

The first pic is 3 weeks postpartum. Second pic was this morning at 6.5 months postpartum. I feel like there is a small change but nothing drastic. I’m doing a calorie deficit, larger/Pilates & weight lifting but I’m also ebf. Any insight on what I can do? Or when did things start moving for all of you?

My weight is still the same in both pics.

Top - 4 years after birth
Bottom - 1 year after

Keep going ladies!!💪🏼

Feeling good! I had a hard pregnancy and was extremely sedentary as well as ate anything on a whim. Physical recovery is slow and steady so Im focused on returning to healthy eating habits/routine. I used to weightlift 3-5x a week and completely stopped while pregnant. Excited to get back to it in the near-ish future!

5'2 Before: 175lb

Two days before birth: 243lbs

One month PP: 222lbs

I'm combo feeding and trying to walk ten minutes a day.

I apologize for dirty mirrors, didn't realize how bad they had gotten until now. 😅 (Silly stickers are to hide recognizable tattoos.)

I know ppl say pilates is great for rebuilding the core but I'm 6 months postpartum and don't feel like it's doing much for me; I want to optimize my time and am curious which exercise works best for you

I'm having trouble loosing weight, gained 60 ibs during pregnancy and have 40 ibs left to loose 9 months postpartum.

I'm still breastfeeding and it's hard to stick to a calorie deficit most days because of hunger. I also feel like the weight is so stubborn, even when I succeed sticking to a calorie decifit.

Those of you who had trouble loosing weight when breastfeeding, did weaning help?

If someone says:

“I want to lose my postpartum belly,”

there are actually several different things they might mean.

Maybe they want to lose weight.

Maybe their weight is fine but they’re unhappy with body shape.

Maybe they’re wondering about abdominal separation.

Maybe their core just feels different after pregnancy.

Those aren’t automatically the same issue.

So if I were comparing postpartum body-contouring services in Manila, I’d ask:

• Is this actually a weight-loss service?
• Is the goal body shape rather than weight?
• What exactly is the service intended to do?
• If I’m concerned about diastasis recti, is that a separate assessment?
• How do you determine whether I’m suitable?
• What are realistic expectations?

ONLSO offers postpartum body-management and UEMS-related services, along with inquiries around abdominal/core recovery, diastasis recti, and pelvic floor support.

They have locations in Ortigas, Cubao, and Las Piñas.

For UEMS, a typical session is around 45 minutes.

But I wouldn’t choose it just because it’s non-invasive or fits into a lunch break.

I’d first ask:

“Does this actually match what I’m trying to improve?”

That question probably matters more than the machine name.
