mummyto2-
congrats on baby number 2!
first things first, dry your eyes. no more teary eyes and start being positive and confident.make a plan and stick to it. what do you eat throughout the day that makes you feel guilty at night?even though you just had a baby, you're still feeding for two if you are breastfeeding.
write out a plan. wats your weight now? goal weight? start a food diary. ( i did for 3 months straight and it helped me out.i saw how much i ate and what i ate and worked from there). do u plan on working out or just eating healthier? and when do you want to reach your goal? get your kids and your man and head to the park for a walk.
i wish you luck. keep me updated. chin up and smile. 
take care,
mommynmia

My wife was 90kgs when she gave birth to our son and after a month she started her diet plan and most of it was exercising fo 30mins a day ,eating less and not eating after 8pm.She went back down to 65kgs and she did that in 5 months.

Here are some techniques to help you lose post-pregnancy weight - Drink at least 12 glasses of water every day. Replace
your high sugar beverages such as sodas and juices with some water and
a squeeze of fresh lemon. You could also try flavored seltzer water
which has no calories. You can cut out hundreds of calories a day this
way.
- Keep healthy snacks handy such as raisins, popcorn, wheat crackers, and nuts. Refuse to buy store-bought baked goods or junk food.
- Eat lean meats such as boneless chicken and the leanest cuts of beef.
- Eat whole grains (breads, cereals, pastas) instead of the "white" versions
- Don't be fooled by foods that are labeled as nonfat. Some are loaded with calories and can have hydrogenated vegetable oils and/or high fructose corn syrup, neither of which are healthy. Read your labels!
- Resist the urge to indulge in a fast food meal. Or if you do, order the salad and not the fat-filled burgers and fries.
- As soon as you feel ready, start light exercise. Weather-permitting, take a 10 minute walk with the baby every day and slowly increase your time to 20 minutes per day. Babies can be worn in a snugli or sling or you can use a baby jogger or stroller when they get too heavy. Even better, walk at a regular time with a friend.
- Find easy ways to increase your exercise like parking farther away or using stairs instead of elevators.
- Breastfeeding uses up your fat stores! Breastfeeding burns about 500 calories per day so the longer you breastfeed, the more calories you burn.
- Consider joining a gym and trade babysitting hours with a friend so when you each go to do your workout, the other can watch the babies. Some gyms may offer babysitting services as well.
Just remember it took 9 months to gain the weight; give yourself at least that long to take it off. I am not a fan of completely avoiding or drastically reducing food groups such as the popular diets of limiting carbs or sugars. I believe the more you deprive yourself of an occasional treat, the more you will crave it.

Hi! You don't have to worry because everything is doable
as long as you keep your focus and your heart in doing
it. Set your goals and be ready to achieve these goals.
Start with brisk walking or just simply being always on
the go - whether doing household chores or walking with
your dog along the neighborhood. If your body is already
searching for more intensified exercises, then you can
hit the gym. At the gym, you can find personal trainers
who can guide you and provide you with the best workout
program. They are also there to motivate you. Meanwhile,
if you are the type who doesn't have enough time in going
to the gym, you can always opt for some medical
procedures such as liposuction and abdominoplasty. This
is only if you are mentally and emotionally prepared in
doing this. There is no harm in doing these operations as
long as you have a very good doctor who will conduct the
operations. There are lots of women out there who have
success stories after going through tummy tuck
procedures.
With regards to your bf - I am sorry to say this, but he
should love and accept you for whatever you are. Physical
aspect is just superficial. True love transcends beyond
what is seen by the naked eyes.

Hi, I'm Rebecca130 and I just wrote a long reply to bronxguy1990, a few
posts above you. It's about what keeps me going, ways to keep you
motivated. I'd love if you read it and let me know what you think.
Thanks and cheers
PS Personally I say skip the knife! If you get to the best you can be,
naturally, then thats good enough! Being a mother does change your body,
take pride in those imperfections!

I totally agree on this. It takes a lot of sacrifice if
one is really dead-set in losing down some weight. Focus
and determination are the keys for it.

Firstly, don't stress out as you'll encourage more weight
loss, just start off slowly with a slight change in the
diet, eg take out chocolates and change to yoghurts and add
some exercise, and rinse and repeat.

If you are afraid of losing your boyfried this is your greatest motivation, when you love you should have the desire to be loved by your friend. If you feel that he does not like you, you should make him feel that he is wrong and that you are the best and the most attractive girl in the world!

is there a sport you enjoy doing? go to the gym? exercise while watching tv... watch what you eat. i know you just got your 2nd child so you might not have all the time in the world, but give time. it's you we are talking about here. If you don't have time to keep yourself healthy, your kids won't have good quality time w/ you when they grow up... do it for them, do it for you =)
here's a tip for beginning a diet:
1. start small - say add a serving of veggies when you eat
2. take out soda and chips - you know you don't need those
3. start w/ a healthy breakfast =) always good to start healthy
4. when you do your grocery shopping -- always have a list and follow it! don't go wandering where you shouldn't be
5. tell a friend, tell your husband -- tell him you need him to watch you through your journey =)
well good luck, i'm sure you'll do great! keep us posted! =)
