Where to begin? I'm 5'2" and weighed 104 lbs before I got pregnant and gained a whopping 58 lbs. The first 40 came off easily but the last 18 have been challenging. I've only got 6 lbs to go but my body is a far cry from bathingsuit ready and I go on vacation in a month. Egads! I don't care if I lose the extra 6 lbs per se, I'd be perfectly happy if I stayed the same weight as long as the fat that's still clinging to my abs, butt and thighs changed to muscle.
I do 30 min on the elliptical, 200-400 crunches, leg lifts and squats every day. I eat decently, consuming only 1200-1500 calories per day, mostly veggies and lean meats. All I drink is water and 1-2 cups of coffee a day but please don't ask me to cut that -- it's a necessity when you have an 8-month-old who still wakes up three times a night. :)
Am I doing something wrong? Anyone have any ideas on what I can do to lose the rest of this flab? Thanks for any input!
