wow...seems like the first day for most of us..
I did Jillians 30 day shred Level 1 with weights..hoping to continue doing it this month..
Today is the third day iam doing it and slowly able to cope up with her intensity..finally today is the day with no afterpains..
Pman, can you tell me whether you were able to maintain the weight n shape after the initial loss..reason am asking is, am more worried abt regaining the tummy even after losing it..but yeah, i understand crunches has to be done rest of our lives

Hi paddubala,,

I lost my second pregnancy weight after 4yrs in 2010 and been able to maintain till now. However, as i could not exercise in winter due to cold weather (in US) i gain about 4-5lbs but again lost it in summer. Being in US, we have the advantage of joining so many fun classes.

Also every body is different. You have to analyse yourself first....reasons for putting on weight and try to work on them. For me, i was never fat but gained weight only during pregnancy. So i feel it was not very difficult for me to lose weight until i tried for it.

Abt regaining tummy AFTER losing it....well....to lose it is a big task in the first instance especially two c-secs tummy. If you/me/someone can get rid of such stubborn fat and flab in that area and have a flat tummy even for one single day, i would not be worried even if regain it. The triumph of winning will be a great feeling for me!

We need to exercise for health reasons too as we age. It is a misconception that once we lost weight, we can stay without exercise.
