It’s now over five months since I’ve given birth.
It’s been three months since I’ve posted about my progress.
Losing the baby weight is as hard as I thought it would be.
I had hoped since I was breastfeeding, it would just fall off.
That was not the case for me.
Just over two months ago we found out that AG had a milk protein allergy.
That threw a huge wrench in my weight loss plan.
I couldn’t eat the things I was used to eating.
At first, I lost weight fast.
Then, I found foods that didn’t have dairy in them.
I ate too much of it.
I found cookies and brownies that were dairy free.
I was honestly eating 4 a night with dairy free hot chocolate.
Hello weight gain.
On top of that, the holidays came and went.
With that, weight came and hasn’t gone yet.
On January 1st, I started P90X.
I’m working out 6 days a week and haven’t missed a day.
I am planning healthy meals and watching my portions.
I feel good.
I’m able to zip my size 4 pants.
I’m on my way.

I’m on my way.
My goal is to continue with P90X for the full 90 days.
Then, I want to get back into running.
I stopped Couch to 5K when I got sick for a week.
It was hard to get back into.
After P90X I will start running again.
I would like to run a 5K by May.
Hopefully it won’t be three more months before I post again!
I do plan to share my favorite healthy snacks next week.
Stay tuned.
This Month’s Loss/Gain: I’m not weighing myself until the end of the month.
Total Weight Lost: 30 lbs
Food: I’m finally adjusted to dairy free eating. I’ve found options that satisfy my cravings. I continue to plan meals that are healthy. My snacks throughout the day are making a big difference in the way I feel. The one thing I can improve on is cutting down my sugar intake.
Fitness: I am doing P90X. I’ve done it before and love the workouts. I can do them at home, which makes all the difference. I am also trying to walk 2-3 times a week and run on the day I do yoga. I can already see the physical changes from P90X. My legs are getting some definition back and I’m sore every morning.
Goals for the next two months:
*Continue with P90X
*Continue with P90X
*Walk 3 days a week in addition to the P90 workout
*Continue planning meals
*Eat less sugar
*Continue planning meals
*Eat less sugar

You are doing so great. I am only just starting my post baby weight loss journey. I wonder if you'd share any dairy free meal ideas. I'm not a milk drinker anyway- but really trying to limit my dairy now that baby is here. Cheese is hard one right now. Keep it up- your inspiring me!
Good for you! Keep up the good work!
I did P90x three months after Madeline was born. But only for 60 days as it was during the holidays;) It was exactly what I needed to get my body back in shape! Good for you… I know working out like that is hard with a small baby!
