    Hurray, I have the cutest little boy named Keith now! He was born on June 18 (Father's Day).

    Goal weight: 130 lb
    Height: 5' 6"
    Age: 28 (29 in September)
    First child
    Pre-pregnancy: 139.6 lb
    39w+4d weeks: 160.6 lb
    Baby's birth weight at 40w+1d: 7lb 7.4oz
    Initial weight loss: 145.8 lb (14.8 lb lost 3 days)

    I'm tracking my weight here! Not actively trying to lose yet until I get the go ahead. But I am breastfeeding so I'm curious to see what happens.

    Nice loss already!! How are you guys doing? I am breastfeeding too and my Alice is up all night cluster feeding but sleepy during the day. Lol.

    I will do my weekly check-ins here too. Waiting til Monday to do an official weigh in. SO swollen still. Weird because I had next to no swelling in pregnancy. Now I have cankles!!!

    ^ Called OB and she said it was normal. To be patient and the whoosh of fluid weight loss would come.

    1 week PP 06/25: 142.8 lb (-3.0, -17.8)

    I'm aiming for about 2300 calories a day. Hoping that will be enough to heal and keep up my milk. It sounds like plenty. Not really sure what it should be at.

    @getfitgal123 Keith is also a cluster feeder. Makes for some very long, up and down nights doesn't it. And yep, naps are better during the day lol. It's interesting that you have water retention now. I had it show up randomly in my last week of pregnancy, just as it got hot out. That might be why!

    A little disappointed it's not more... Baby and placenta weighed at least that much! Still feeling swollen though and OB nurse said it could take a few weeks to go down! Working on making more nutritious food choices this week (ppl brought all sorts of treats lol... Donuts, etc, the first week!)

    I am breastfeeding and plan to try to eat about the levels I did for 3rd tri - maybe a bit more. I nursed my last til he was 2 though and my body likes to hang onto weight while nursing.

    I'm having a lot of fluctuations and weight is not dropping off quite like I had hoped but I am trying to be patient :) Breastfeeding can be a wild card - magic weight loss for some but the opposite for others.

    Going to knock down calories a bit and work on eating more whole foods. It's a challenge to do while EBFing though.

    I've had a few high cal days since though so I'm back to 142ish now. Oh well. I was excited to be close to 139.6 again. But I'm not risking my milk to make up for my feasting. Isn't it interesting how your weight loss strategy changes pay partum?

    @trjjoy Thanks! How's it going for you?

    I'm gorging on all the food! I'm eating a minimum of 2500 calories a day with very minimal exercise (a light walk once or twice a week) so... I'm likely eating at, or very slightly under, maintenance. I only have 3kg to go to get to my goal weight and I'm not yet 6 months post-partum so I've got loads of time ;)

    @trjjoy that sounds like the life!!! I want to eat that much too. But I haven't been very diligent with counting so 2300 to lose it is. Not actually sure it's the right amount.

    I need to get back to logging a weight here every week. I've been bouncing around the same weight since 2 weeks PP. :( I started gaining at 1800 cal, so I have been taking it down little by little in the hopes it doesn't ruin my supply. (We are EBFing).
    Currently at 1500 cal/day and getting 10,000 steps/day. Hoping for some forward progress soon!

    It appears 1500 calories/day plus watching carbs is what it's going to take to lose for me, even while EBF. Have PP visit tomorrow. Was supposed to be 2 weeks ago but I got stuck in massive traffic jam and missed it!

    @VeryKatie Amazing job!! Congrats to being under pre-pregnancy weight!

    11 weeks PP: 167.0 (-14.8)

    Started back circuit training (kettlebell) with a trainer/small group and expected a bump UP on the scale from sore muscles/water retention from that. So, I was pleased to see a loss! I think having to go dairy free for baby is helping too. Can't eat as much processed stuff because it all has hidden dairy.
