    Pre-pregnancy: 210 lb
    At delivery: 240 lb
    Baby's birth weight: 9lb 12oz
    Initial weight loss: 221 (lost 19lbs in first 6 weeks)

    3 weeks: 222.8
    6 weeks: 221.8
    11 weeks: 225.8
    12 weeks: 225.6
    13 weeks: 228.6

    Christmas parties, family visiting, and way to many treats. Today is my "new years" though so I am getting it back together. Thinking about signing up for a 5k in feb to force me to get back to running regularly. Usually a locked in goal helps me keep on track.

    Starting to realize my figure has changed a bit from this. I used to be pretty evenly hourglassy heavy or light. I seem to be heading more towards a pear shape these days, carrying alot in my lower stomach and butt. Anyone else seeing change in their overall shape after pregnancy? Even when I was heavier before (was 240 not pregnant at my highest) I don't remember looking like this. Maybe I am just remembering incorrectly though?

    i think we're all squishier and more mishapen right after. from what i hear it gets better but i'm also a ftm. my tummy is soft but i do feel my prepregnancy flat tummy there just waiting to bust out when i feel well enough to exercise! squishy belly and a flat mom butt and flabby inner thighs and arms!

    Got my eating back on track the past week so yay me! I am definitely paying for those few weeks of abandon between thanksgiving and Christmas. I got back to a running schedule last week, and signed up for a 5k in Feb so hopefully that keeps me motivated and on track. Going to incorporate some body weight exercises and yoga for some resistance training to balance things out a bit too. And keep working on decreasing my calories until I find my happy place.

    Working out definitely makes a difference. Just getting back into a workout routine the past week already makes me feel like I look better, but maybe that is just the endorphins talking ;) whatever, I'll take it!

    Man, went down to 223 for most of last week, then was kinda bad again over the weekend and its back. Before all this I used to only swing about 2 lbs in water weight, I seem to be doing more like 4-5 now. Who knows! Ate on track with a 250 calorie deficit most of last week though and supply seemed to hang in there ok so going to try a little less and see how I do. Need to not be a slacker this weekend and actually stick to my plan. I can't let myself fall into that good during the week slacker on the weekend routine, hinders progress!!!

    After all those weeks of avoiding logging. I think stress induced from the holidays. Going to try to get back into better habits. My sweet guy is now starting solids so I should start cooking again so we can all eat together. Likely it won't be till February that we actually start eating dinners together but ... better to start now before I gain more weight back. And I was as low as 125.6 lb so it's more than it looks. Plus breastfeeding burn calories are going to reduce soon too, making it harder.

    At least I held steady through the holidays. Time to really get logging and into a deficit now Squish seems to be sleeping through the night again, and I'm no longer starving from breastfeeding.

    Im hyperlactating, and wonder if that's why Im losing so quickly. If only I looked 4lbs above PP weight. Now if i can continue the streak of her not projectile vomiting the extra milk she gulps down it'll be a great win.
