Howdy gang! I am a new mom to a 5 month old son and just in the past week really started to focus my efforts on losing weight and feeling better about myself. I've reduced my food intake and have been making better choices although I haven't been doing as much as I could but I have been working out every day doing at least 3 miles of WATP tapes plus ab work for over a week now. I wasn't expecting a big weight loss (okay maybe secretly I was
) but I at least thought I'd lose a pound especially going from pretty much no exercise (other than picking up my son) to 3 miles a day would have some affect on my weight but I got zip, zilch, nada! I actually think I've gained a half a pound so all of this leads into my question.
Have any of you started an exercise program and gained weight at first but then lost it later on?
I'm just looking for some motivation here. It is so easy to give up when you don't see any results and I don't want to do that but I really have to work to find time to exercise each day and it is so frustrating not to see any results! I think that some of my clothes are fitting a little bit better so I'm hoping that I'm gaining muscle and losing fat and that is why the scale doesn't show it. Anyone else have this happen to them - I don't want to lose hope!
