Why is weight loss postpartum so hard?
I am 10 months postpartum with a 2.5-year-old and a baby. I am doing MAPS 15 and I am really enjoying it, and things seem to be improving. I'm eating roughly 2800-3000 calories and aiming for at least 179g of protein. I may not hit protein on weekends consistently or when we visit my parents, who hardly eat. I am breastfeeding and pumping at work. I am 5'4" and weigh 220lbs. I have giant children (40 lbs and 22 lbs), so my main goal is to get stronger to avoid hurting myself when picking them up. However, the way I look does bother me. I used to be very strong before a divorce at 27 and some life changes. Do you have any specific tips to help me get more satisfaction with my looks quicker while prioritizing strength?
I'm 5 months postpartum with my first child, and I breastfeed. I had a c-section and weighed around 155 before I got pregnant. I didn't gain any weight during my pregnancy, and since giving birth, I lost over 20lbs postpartum. I currently weigh around 130 but struggle with nutrition. I want to keep working out, but I feel like I'm going backwards because I don't think I'm eating enough. I have MAPS Starter, but I'm not sure if I should continue the program and work on my nutrition or focus on nutrition before I start working out. What should I do?
