[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was like you OP. I was somewhat naturally thin prior to haivng babies and never had to work out hard.

I gained a TON of weight post partum.  I've lost 35lbs since then.  I work out at a very high intensity and watch my eating (somewhat) I'm not super strict and don't count calories, but I do use common sense (except not today because I ate two lunches!).[/quote]

OP here.  What kind of high intensity work out do you do?  I normally do a lot of vinayasa yoga but I don't think it is going help me lose this 15 lbs. [/quote]

Yoga? No f'ing way. I do that for relaxation and I do Bikram at that.

I trained for a marathon.  I did my marathon last fall. I scaled back my running to about 20 miles a week and I do spin class 2xs a week.  I try to get out on my bicycle on the trail at least twice a month for a good 30 mile ride. The reason I do so much biking is to keep my legs strong so I don't get injuries when running, basically my biking is in support of my running.

With that said, I have a very supportive husband who also works out a lot and has lost 75lbs himself (together we lost 110lbs) and we trade off working out and supporting each other. We both work full time.

At this point my exercise is no longer to lose weight. I really really like the way it has shaped my body.  Now in my mid 30s my body is firmer, tighter, and smoother than in my mid 20s and that has everything to do with exercise.[/quote]
