S.,
I have never used Slimquick...but I think that the name is telling. We all know that there is no way to get slim quickly. I have a two month old and am also trying to lose the baby weight. I have to say that in the past, the only thing that has worked is eating well and exercising. I also have great luck when I "count points" with Weight Watchers. I have never attended the meetings, although I think that would help. I think for me with WW, it is having to write down every bite that enters my mouth. It keeps me accountable and keeps me from sneaking bites all day (which is my thing). It also helps me to know what I SHOULD be eating. We all know what we shouldn't eat, it is the should I have trouble with. With WW, you know that a chicken breast has the same amount of points as a cup of rice, and the chicken will obviously stick with you longer.
If you are interested in WW, I am pretty sure you can just go to a meeting spot (you can find online) and purchase the point calculator and the books you want.
Good luck!
