When Will I Start Losing Weight? Mothers Of New Baby Who Run?

(My stats before prego 5’3″ 123, currently 143) Ok, had a baby 2 1/2 months ago. I was a runner before I got pregnant and ran as long as I could. Started back running a month after she was born. I’m currently training for a half marathon. I had 40 lbs to lose after she was born and the 1st 10 lbs came off w/o me noticing. The 2nd 10 lbs took a little while longer. Now I’ve got 20 more lbs to lose and I know I’ve lost body fat b/c my body fat percentage is down 4% but my weight hasn’t changed. So I assume I’m losing fat at the same rate I’m gaining muscle but what I’m wanting to know is when will I start losing weight?
I had alot of muscle before I got pregnant. I lifted weights and ran.
And I know the more muscle you have the more calories you will burn at rest. Oh, and I eat healthy and drink plenty of water b/c I’m also breastfeeding and I know I have to stay plenty hydrated.
Would it be that my body knows i’m breastfeeding and is trying harder to hang on to the fat for the baby? And that’s why I’m having a hard time?
And another question, for any breastfeeding mothers that run also. Would the lactic acid from running get in breast milk and make my baby fussy? Like if I fed her right after a run? I usually try to run right after I feed her so then I have at least an hour to rest before she needs to eat again. But there have been times as soon as I got back from a run I had to feed her.
And stretch marks, is there anything I can do? I know i’ve heard coco butter but isn’t that just for prevention or them?

Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle Review – Is This Program Only For Bodybuilders? I Have the Answer

Today, I am going to share with you my Burn the Fat, Feed the muscle review. This weight loss guide was written by Tom Venuto, a well-known personal trainer and bodybuilder.

Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle is one of the top selling ebooks on weight loss and muscle building ever. Before doing my Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle review, I was a bit concerned that this product was just going to be for bodybuilders who were looking to build physiques that were not natural. This was based on the not only the title but the background of the author. But my Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle review found that this was not the case at all. See, it is important that EVERYONE build muscle in order to lose fat, because the more muscle that you have, the more fat you are going to burn when you are at rest. So women, you do not have to worry about getting too muscular on this plan, because that will only happen if you take weight gaining supplements.

My Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle review also found that this product will help you achieve real, sustainable fat loss. On a lot of diet programs, you are only losing water weight, which you will easily put back on once you stop dieting. This is not the case with BTFFTM. The diet plan is easy to follow and gives you a variety of foods. There is also a section on setting goals, which was very helpful.

Did I find any negatives when doing my Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle review? Only that the book is REALLY long (340 pages). It can take a while to sift through all the information inside.

How I Got in Shape by Using the Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle Program

I first learned about the Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle program a few years ago from a personal trainer I was friends with. I was skeptical, but I trusted my friend, so I ended up getting the Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle program. Boy am I ever glad that I did!

When I first started the Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle program I was pretty wiped out! I was not sure if I would be able to stick with it for two weeks, but I made a commitment to myself, and I was not going to give up until I had seen it through.

But after that draining first day, guess what? I had a lot more energy! So, I kept going and going, and every day, I started to feel better and better. It was like drinking 3 cups of coffee, without feeling jittery!

After being on the Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle program for 12 days, I stepped on the scale, and had lost 5 pounds! My clothes fit so much better. And then, when I saw my personal trainer friend for the first time since going on the Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle program, he was absolutely shocked at how I looked.

One thing that I will say about this program is that you may not lose a lot of pounds, but that is because you are going to gain muscle. And muscle weighs more than fat. Besides, weight loss is not the primary goal here, fat loss is. And as the author Tom Venuto explains, that is your number one goal. And this is true for both men and women. If you are a woman, you want to make sure that you try to gain muscle, because increased muscle will burn more fat. As a woman, do not worry about getting too big and bulky, because that is really not possible without supplements.
