[quote=Anonymous]I've heard from other moms of 2-3 kids that the subsequent pregnancies are harder to come back from than the first. So that might be a factor. Age is probably also likely a factor. I noticed metabolism shifts at 30, 35 and 39 - the one at 39 was a doozy. I lost all but 5 lbs of my baby weight at age 36, but then at 39, I gained 13 lbs in 4 months and started keeping weight around my midsection, which had never happened before. (typically I gain in my butt and thighs and my abs stay flat and defined.) You probably don't need to work out more often, but you may need to crank up the intensity of your workouts. I do weekly speedwork at the track, and I definitely hit the weights harder now in my 40's than I did before. Every workout counts. I also have to be much more careful about my diet now. I don't deprive myself and I don't restrict calories too much, but I've had to watch my snacking, my desserts, my booze and my portion size.[/quote]
