Needing Motivation

I had a baby 2 months ago tomorrow, I am at my pre baby weight but... yeah there its a but! I am getting so unmotivated. Taking care of a newborn has really been taking its toll- I have to ea****ever is easy and I am so so so tired that when I need to go workout I just wana sleep. Between work, home, a new baby I am out of my element. Any advice ... Im really needing some motivation!

Congratulations on the new baby! No kidding you're tired! I remember that time all too well! You can't do everything... so whatever you can do, do. Don't beat yourself up.  I would think taking Baby for a walk in the stroller would be good exercise.

And planning meals might be a good option for you. Shop, portion out the foods so they're ready when you need them, maybe?

5 hour energy drinks... that's the only other suggestion I have! 

Congrats on the new baby!! Nic has some great advice. Take the baby for a walk in the stroller for exercise. Even if it is a short 20 min walk... it is better than none.

Foodwise... try planning and pre-portioning out your food. Hubby and I got shopping on Sunday and plan out what we are going to be having for the week. We precut and wash veggies and fruit on Sunday and put them in tupperware containers so they are quick to grab and ready to go. You will be more likely to snack on healthy food if it is "quick" and "ready" in the fridge. At least that is my experience.

It takes a lot of energy. Sometimes I feel like I want a break... and I don't have a new baby. Hang in there! 

I agree with the previous poster, I see women power walking with their baby in the stroller every day, and the baby seems to enjoy it too! Get back to the basics of how you lost weight in the beginning...if you need a fill get one...some people drink protein drinks to start them back to losing again and then eat solid protein for dinner...get motivated and join our HAPPY TEAM and inspirational posts weekly with staying on track.

Good luck!

In the first 2 mos you're just trying to figure out how to take care of your sweetie...it's HARD to take care of yourself too.  One easy thing you can do is to drink your water.  It's right there, in the house within easy access.  Plus if you're BFing you really need it. 

Congrats!  Is this your first?

Thanks everyone for all the advice. I will see what i can do about pre-planning and portioning my foods. Even if i dont pre-plan them i still need to make sure i measure it. I havent really been following the rules like i should so maybe that should be step one. I havent been drinking my water like i should, and ive been eating and drinking which i shouldnt do. I can go to the gym i have a gym membership and they have a daycare in there that I can see my daughter from anyroom im in.. i just need to find that motivation hidden in me... to get up after being so tired and going- once i get there im good and will work out for 1-2 hours and i then get ready there without the baby which is good to have me time. I just dont have the motivation these days that i do need!
I make all these goals and plans but to myself, however then im not held accountable. If i dont go or follow the rules I answer only to myself which obviously im ignoring. Maybe I need to be held accountable in some way. Any ideas on things that can make you be held accountable? Thats a weird request isnt it, lol. I just need to lose it cuz im getting kinda depressed and the more depressed i get the more unmotivated, what a rotten loop! thanks for listening to my rant,, and i would love any advice given! thanks
