Hi Niamh75

Like you I am slightly vertically challenged (5ft) and have a 3 month old baby and loads of post pregnancy kilos! With less height, every kilo shows, there is no hiding a bit of extra weight!

It is soo hard to watch what you eat when you're hungry and bfing and I joined weight watchers 2 months ago but havent kept up with the meetings over Christmas and have added on another kilo!

I did find with WW that my portions were way too big and so i bought some kitchen scales and throw everything i eat for dinner onto them to regulate how much goes on the plate- my pasta portions were double what they should have been - i was eating as much as my hubby who is Irish and loves loads of potato and pasta and hates salads!!.

I think if you have cereal for brekky and a sambo for lunch you are eating well, maybe just try to eat smaller portions for dinner, and healthy snacks, bikkies are tempting but they dont keep me full for very long.

I have started the new year with a resolution to lose at least 10kg, maybe we could be weight loss buddies?! Anyone else out there under 5 feet tall?
