I snapped back with my first two kids at 30 and 32. Then my 3rd and 4th were 16 months apart (I had my last at 38) so I didnt have time to work out or change my diet between them. After 4 I had this belly that would not go away, steadily 20 pounds overweight even after months at CrossFit. I have to track macros, it's the only thing that's helped drop some weight. It's SO MUCH HARDER after multiple kids, hormone changes, getting older... But not impossible!

I’m where you were at 😩😩😭 3 kids now… I was 10 pounds overweight for a while, but now I’m 20 lbs 😑 (39 yo and 8 years postpartum). Time to work on my macros and walk 1 mile a day! 👏🏻

@@JoyfulNoiseLearning I just started nutritional coaching with my CrossFit coaches. Tracking macros is a pain but it really does wonders. I'm already stronger bc I'm getting the nutrition I need, and I've lost a couple of pounds. I still don't get much time for long walks but I do hit the gym 3-4 times a week. More than the extra weight, I work out so I don't shrivel away into a frail old lady when I'm old.

Loved this video. I started in December with cutting out sweets and moving toward a diet with whole foods and more protein. Also walking more and targeting 10k steps per day. I fast 7pm-9am. Overall it’s been great. I started at 128lb in mid-Dec and down to 123lb today, just under 2 months later. Your videos have been the most helpful on the internet and I appreciate them so much!! I’m hovering around 27/28% body fat so hoping to see that go down over the next few months.

Not sure if it was really worth it. Blessings to you and your beautiful fam.❤

Coming back to watch this video a few times over again! I pick up things somehow I missed before. My third baby is now nine months, but it’s never too late to start! I had a rough postpartum and took a little bit more time to heal. After getting a body scan done, I discovered I am 33% body fat! Never have I ever been that high and I will be starting at your phase 1 to recompose my body! I am also starting at a beginner fitness level once again and it is… Very humbling. Thank you so much for sharing all viable information with us!❤

Why the heck are there so many people complaining about the quiet barely noticeable music in the background on your videos and you speaking fast? I honestly don’t understand it
@jlfields88
@jlfields88 4 ай бұрын
Because for some of us (and there's a lot of us) it's not at all "quiet" or "barely noticeable". Our brains don't easily filter out "background" noise and it's an exhausting, constant struggle and can make it very hard to even sit through videos like this much less be able to focus on the information and what's being said. I will never understand why any KZbinr plays music and then talks over it with the intention of viewers listening to what they're saying. It doesn't make much sense to me.

Hey Autumn! So glad you came out with this vid. Definitely going to give these 3 phases a shot, though im already 8 weeks post partum and still have a whopping 27lbs to lose! Its really hard to get outside and walk because i live in canada and its winter right now, my husband works full time and is at school too so theres almost no way i can get a daily walk in (without the baby). (I also live in a very small apartment). I do usually do either a 30 min workout or 15 when i have time (i also have a 4 yo and 2 yo). I just dont know what to do about this!!!

Hey fellow Canadian who is "enjoying" the Polar Vortex LOL. You can get your walking in by thinking of it as "movement". Look up NEAT--Non Exercise Thermogenesis, which is basically all movement you do throughout your day, that isn't formal exercise. It accounts for most of your body's calorie-burning, outside of just keeping you alive. I too have a very small apartment, but you'd be *shocked* how many steps you can get in while still being inside. Walking back and forth around my apartment (it's 14 steps one end to the other!), in and out of the kitchen, bedroom, living room and back, at the average walking pace (kind of the "get where you're going" pace, rather than a stroll) is 1000 steps in 10 minutes. I also have a list that I have compiled, of ways I can add movement in my day, even inside, which I remind myself of regularly, and add to when I find something new: 1. Put cup of water in the kitchen so I have to go and get it to take a drink. 2. Walk while kettle is heating first thing in the morning. 3. Take down recycling each day or every other day. 4. Walk after meals for 10-15 mins-helps with digestion, and sugar metabolism. 5. When drying a dish, walk a few steps for each dish 6. Take the stairs (strap on baby!). 7. Be inefficient (getting and putting away groceries, putting away dishes, tidying etc). 8. Walk during commercials if watching TV. 9. When watching videos or movies, set timer every 15 mins to walk for 2-3 minutes. 10. Walkie talkies (this is where I walk around, and chat with a friend via video chat). 11. Walk while you brush your teeth. 12. Walk around while you heat something in microwave. 13. Walk around while waiting for something. 14. When bringing a meal to the table, bring one item at a time. You can also do things like a few squats at a time repeating over the course of the day, lift something heavier like a bag of potatoes above your head a few times (or both at the same time!) and repeat, getting up and down off the floor and repeat, you get the idea. All not having to got outside when it's -30C (or colder if you're in AB...I mean seriously!). 🙂

@@suzannecarrier287 Definitely. it's so important for us to figure out what works for each of us. Autumn talks about getting sunlight exposure in the morning, which isn't possible where I live for the shortest days of the year, when the sun literally comes up a few minutes before I go to work lol. But I CAN go our for a morning break walk, and walk at lunch, which isn't as good but what can we do right? Of course there are days that that's impossible because of the weather, whether it's way too cold in winter or way too hot in summer, so then indoor stuff comes in. :)

Thanks for all the videos Autumn. As someone who (almost) exclusively breastfed my child for the first 11 months I noticed huge weight loss during that period because of just doing that and combining that with intermittent fasting. I wonder if your progress would have been different if breastfeeding wasn’t in the mix. What do you think?
@AutumnBates
@AutumnBates 9 ай бұрын
It could be. I personally found breastfeeding didn’t help my weight loss and even appeared to be hindering it. But breastfeeding is more of a priority for me anyway, so I was okay with the slightly slower initial progress while I was rebuilding muscle mass.

I wish you would emphasize how important the extra body fat percentage is for pregnancy and post pregnancy. You would not want to be at 18-20 percent until well after baby is born. It's a season, not a failure. And the body is never quite the same, and that's ok. Same after menopause -- and I've been around the same ( I'm 5'5", 130 or so lbs, and size 6) for almost 30 years. My body has changed after children and menopause even if I haven't gained much. It's harder to keep muscle now, so if you start young, never stop strength training. ❤

It's much the same, but you're starting from a place of "do what you can/what is realistic". You also need to remember that your body will require more food right now, than it will when you're closer to where you want to be, so don't be tempted to extreme diet/calorie restriction. You need to support the body you have right now, and can adjust as you go along, making sure you're eating nutritious food and of course getting enough healthy fat and protein. As for exercise, it depends on what you might be doing right now. If you lead a sedentary lifestyle, and walking is currently a challenge, that's totally ok. Just start with where you are, whatever that is, and build on that. Maybe walking for 5 minutes at a time is where you're starting, then begin with doing that, and repeat it several times over the course of the day. You'll find as time goes on, you're able to walk for longer periods before needing a break. Keep doing that until you're able to do say 20 minutes maybe 3x per day. Once you're confident that you can continue to build on that walking and make it a regular part of your day (check out something called NEAT, it's amazing!), then maybe add in some strength training. Walking will have already been using your lower-body muscles, so you're not starting from nothing (I mean you aren't at no muscle now, you're not a noodle lol), but you need to start to engage your full body. *Don't fall into the trap that you need to lift heavy and practically do yourself in* heavy weights are for further along your fitness journey, what you're doing right now is building a strong base, and this phase takes as long as it takes. There are numerous options to muscle-building, from simply lifting free weights to doing things like beginner yoga, it really depends on what you enjoy. If it's not enjoyable, it's not sustainable, right? :) If you find you'd rather do weights, find a workout that is realistic (there's lots of unrealistic stuff out there), and use the weight that you need right now, going slightly heavier when you can over time. Again, you're building the base for your future fitness. *This isn't a sprint, there's no timelines, just build as you progress.* Realistic and sustainable is the name of the game, no matter what social media likes to make it seem. There's no need to be miserable while you do it. Hope that helps. 🙂 Oh and I have found that a really great companion channel to this one is Coach Viva. They're very no-nonsense and realistic, believe in the science, and what they talk about applies to everyone. I highly recommend checking them out. 💚

I watched one of your videos on a week of food. So based on one of those days I did a calculation on that days calories and it was upwards of 2000 calories which is way too high for good weight loss. Just your morning shake was upwards of 500 calories. Whey=110, almond butter= 200, yogurt=100, fruit and nut mixture=100, and then add the waffles = 300. That’s way too much even before lunch or dinner. I would never lose weight on 2000 calories a day.

She doesn’t eat waffles and smoothie at the same meal. I agree with you that her calorie intake are high due to breastfeeding. You can Google TDEE and eat 200 - 500 calories lower than recommended from your TDEE and together with IF, exercise, and sleep well will give you a better and positive results.

How fast can you put on a pound of muscle? Ive been eating a high protein diet 100-130 g per day and around 1700 calories for a month and my weight hasnt changed. Ive doing weight lifting 4x a week. And walking daily. I think i look a little leaner but my butt/hip measurement is bigger! 😂
@celticlass8573
@celticlass8573 9 ай бұрын
Well, your butt is a muscle, so. :) Also, gaining muscle takes much longer for most women than it does men. Also also, if you're only going by a scale that measures your weight, and your weight hasn't changed but you look leaner, you're losing fat and gaining muscle. :) There's a channel that goes great with this one, called Coach Viva, which really breaks it all down, if you're interested in checking it out. :)

Perhaps you’re eating too few calories based on your physical activity? I know that I started to shed more weight when I increased my calorie intake a bit (was eating 1600-1700 and imcreased to 2000). In any case, you can proud of yourself for all the things you started to do to feel better and healthier. That’s awesome! Keep going 🥳🙌🏻🤍

Yes. To her at least and the vast majority of the population. You can be fit in your perspective but you can also be fat in other ppl’s minds 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️. If you find other ppl’s thoughts is true and they’re bothering you, then go workout, get fit. If you find 30% body fat is normal, no need to listen to other opinions. Just stay 30% fat as you are. Like, what is the point of getting healthier anyways. It’s a waste of time, right? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Body fat is a strange thing. It can show up on a person's body in many ways. I have a friend who couldn't understand how we didn't wear the same size of pant, when we weighed the same. I was like your body fat is spread all around your body (lucky) mine is in my middle. A few years later she admitted I was right and I was like yep. lol I also, even when quite fit, weigh more than people think I do.

If your scale is saying 21.5% body fat is high, there's something wrong with the calibration. Try re-setting it and entering in new personal stats. If it's still telling you it's high, you need a new scale. :)

I dont like when youtubers not just want views and subs but also additional money for promoting a third party. How much is it? How much is a private Trainer? Again, 100 gram of protein, you are not heavy or doing a high density training...or do you? Breastfeeding, aah, that is a weight loss boost, as we know. People, pay attention! I don't think you are all straight forward.
