Getting it off once and for all

momwifenurse Posts: 1 Joined: 2009/09/24	2009/09/25, 12:37 PM I had always been naturally small and skinny, I could eat whatever and still say small because I didnt over eat cause my stomach was so small. My down fall came when I had my first baby. I gained 25 lbs like i was suppose to and that never came off. with my second I gained another 30 lbs but luckily that came off easily. But i am still stuck with an extra 15lbs to lose that wont come off. A few months ago i started to diet and exercise I went to the gym three times a week and did cardio and i reduced my cal. to about 1500 a day but nothing happened at all.. idk i feel like why try when my body doesnt seem to want to get this weight off. I am 5'4 and 135.:(

If so my best guess is that you aren't getting enough calories for the exercise you're doing. You could also try making your meals protein centric, and reducing your carbs.
