15 months post partum and have about 15 pounds to lose still. I have been at a standstill for a year now. I'm 4'11 and 147lbs..which looks like a lot on a 4'11 person. My first goal is to get to 135. Prepregnancy weight was 127.

I started Bikini Body Mommy workouts three weeks ago and started myfitnesspal 4 days ago.

Would love to meet other mamas who are still holding on to pregnancy weight as well!

    Hello I also am about 15 months PP. My youngest was a July baby. she is my second child and my experience has been so different with he second as I am hanging on to about 10 pregnancy pounds also. She weaned a week ago so I am hoping that helps. I'll add you if you like :-) It has been frustrating because I have been eating well and using MFP for about 7 months now and loosing very slowly. I feel your pain!

    I hope because you have weaned that the weight will disappear! It didn't for me but I really didn't give it a good chance.. not 100% at least. So far I have been half-assed with weight loss. Like not fully trying. I went on a beach trip with family this morning.. a family picture was taken and I was shocked at how big I looked. So I am now 200% in hahahaha.

    I have a 3.5 year old and am also 9 months pp with my second child. I have 16 lbs left to lose from this most recent pregnancy, and then 30 more from the one before (and then another 55 more to get into a healthy weight).

    I have a 3 year old and a 15 month old. I am holding onto weight from before I had them both. I"m having a rough go at times because my son doesn't sleep through the night yet. Anyway, I want to lose around 70 more pounds as of right now. I am 5'3 so (as you stated), being short, the weight looks much heavier on us.

    My second is 15 months and just weaned last month. I have no good excuses left so I'm starting MFP to get on track with my diet. I will begin exercising at some point. I'd like to lose about 30 pounds to regain energy. These 15 mo are high energy, plus a 5 year old. Look forward to group encouragement and accountability!!

    Am late to reply. My baby is nearly a year & I am hanging on to a stubborn 10lbs. I think it is the sleep deprivation. Will wean the baby over the next few months. Any suggestions for moms who lost all their baby weight? Please share!
    Any postpartum moms, feel free to add me.
