Hi Helen,
I just started sbd today (well, technically restarted as I did it some 5 years ago before my wedding). I have a 9 month old son and have kept about 15 pounds of pregnancy weight gain. As I had some to lose before, I am now aiming to lose 40 lbs! Wow, it sounds like a lot when I actually write it.
I'm not working again yet, but used to be a committed workaholic, so can imagine what you're going through. I have just managed to line up a part time nanny so I can get back in the gym, and a trainer to jump start my efforts there.
Congratulations on your 11 pounds gone! That's great work in just 3 weeks! Keep it up and I hope to be able to say I've lost a good amount by then, too. Any tips on how to manage the first few weeks? Have you moved on to phase 2?
You are my motivation today. Keep it up!
B
