To update, I somehow re-gained almost 6 lbs (as in they came back on super quickly and without obvious explanation), and over the past month+, I lost them plus another pound.
Pre-pregnancy weight somewhere between 160 and 170 (my low in mid-2012 was 153.8, so I'd gained back a few pounds by being lax about logging everything I ate and was picking at my son's snacks a lot)
Weight before delivery 240 (I know...)
Settled postpartum weight 220
Weight almost 3 months postpartum 206.2
Weight almost 4 months postpartum 211.8
Weight almost 5 months postpartum (as of yesterday) 205.2
I am EBFing with a good supply, and with eating 1800 gross (1300 net because we aren't doing solids just yet) plus exercise and eating back most of my exercise calories I seem to be losing again. The loss I've had in the past month is the fastest I've had since I first started logging about 2.5 weeks postpartum. Unfortunately it was regaining lost ground, but I'm just glad to see not only that I'm not gaining but that the scale and my body size seem to be going down. I'll have to take measurements to see how I'm doing. I think about a month ago my waist was 32" (used to be 25" before this baby), and my hips were about 48" (used to be 38"-39" before this baby). I am not worried about my chest measurements because I'm BFing, plus they will be sadly deflated yet again, and I think I want to record upper arm and thigh measurements.
ETA that I'm 5'7".
Updating again...
I haven't taken measurements in a while, so I don't know what's going on there, but as of this morning I weigh 201 exactly . First mini-goal is to get below 200, so I'm hoping to hit that by the end of the month. Since mid-September I've lost almost 11 pounds (nearly six of which was re-gaining lost ground, the rest being in the past month). So I'm losing about 5 pounds/month now. I'm not working out hard, so if I can get my butt in gear, I think that'll make a big difference.
I've been eating 1800 (gross, 1300 net after BFing) for two months now, plus I eat back most of my exercise calories. I also don't stress if I'm a little over some days because I often come in a little under.
So to add to my above stats:
Weight almost 6 months postpartum (as of this morning): 2010 -

Ok I'm jumping in here!!
Age: 30
Height: 5' 7"
Pre-preggo: 150
Delivery: 206
Almost 8 months pp: 173 (33 lbs lost)
Goal Weight: 140
It's so much harder getting this baby weight off than I anticipated. I'm trying. I hate dieting. It means being hungry and I don't like being hungry.

I'm 30 years old and 5'9".
Pre-pregnancy : 190 lbs
Delivery day: 210 lbs
Few days after birth: 192lbs (only gained 20 and my son weighed 10.4, so I lost the weight quick! I was literally all baby! Lol)
10 months after delivery (today): 171 lbs ( I have lost 21 lbs since starting back up with MFP)
My goal is 150 lbs at the moment. But it could easily change. Maybe I'll be happy at 160, who knows? Haha.0 -
baby girl is 4 months old today
things are going really great. still exclusively breastfeeding, up to running 25-30 miles a week and aiming for 15 minutes of strength work each day. eating about 2000 cals/day. *almost* back into skinny jeans... they button but aren't flattering yet so just plugging along with my 0.5lb/week losses. I am pretty happy!
total weight gained: 22 lbs
weight left to lose:
@ 1 week: + 11 lbs
@ 1 month: + 8.5 lbs
@ 2 months: + 7.5 lbs
@ 3 months: + 5.5 lbs
@ 4 months: + 3.5 lbs1 -
Our daughter is 3month! This is our second child, we have a 2yr old too. I'm 5'0 and starting weight for the 2nd baby was 154 (10lbs higher than the starting weight with the first child).
Pre Preg: 154
Weight around birth: 186
Couple weeks after: 166 (9lb baby)
Decided to get my butt in gear when I saw the scale at 168
I've been watching what I eat and counting calories for 2weeks today, and I'm down 6.6lb's!
Week1- 163.8 (-4.2lbs)
Week2- 161.4 (-2.4lbs)
I breastfeed and pump now that I'm back at work. I eat between 1200-1600 calories and my supply has stayed steady or slightly increased since being more aware of what I'm putting in my body. Mind you, I eat salads, veggies, hummus etc... so it's much "cleaner" than what I was eating on maternity leave (Fast Food). I also still enjoy a couple diet cokes a day, but only if I get all of my water in. I plan to start working out as well.
First Goal weight: 135-140
Would LOVE to see 128-1300 -

Thanks Heather. I'm hoping the doctor will clear me for exercise at my 6 week check on Thursday and I'm looking forward to getting back to my Zumba. Then, maybe, I'll be able to keep losing at a pound a week in the new year. Up to now I've only been walking lots.0

Merry Christmas! Baby girl is 5 months old now, time for a check in I just realized that my weight is coming off at just about the same rate as it went on I gained 22 lbs over the 40 weeks, which is about 1/2 lb/week. Granted it really wasn't until weeks 13-40 that I gained, but still, it is coming off at just about a 1/2lb a week too! I'll take it!
pre-pregnancy/goal weight: 114 lbs, 5'2'' normal BMI
total weight gained: +22 lbs
initial loss: 10 lbs, baby = 7 lbs 6 oz
weight left to lose:
1 week: 11 lbs
1 month: 8.5 lbs
2 months: 7.5 lbs
3 months: 5.5 lbs
4 months: 3.5 lbs
5 months: 1.5 lbs

well this is my first time responding to this question. i have been checking in on this forum for a while but never wrote anything. Well my last baby was born on August 24,2012. she weighed in at 9lbs 7oz. 20in. long. with her i weighed 193 when i went in for my c-section. i say last because she was baby no.# 6. pregnant with her i got to my biggest ever. before her i weighed 168lbs. my goal is to get below that. 150 preferably. but so far since Aug. of 2013 when she turned a year old i got serious about losing the weight. before that i would kill a family size bag of spicy nacho doritos with no problem and be looking for another bag after that so my diet was horrible. so i decided i needed to get serious if i wanted to lose this baby weight. mind u i still eat doritos, just not the whole bag, not even half of the bag. i had to change the way i see food so that has helped me with better eating. i now love to eat red, orange, green ,and yellow peppers with zucchini and squash and salmon and tilapia fish. when i got serious about the weight loss i was fluctuating between 188 and 193. i did cheat a little by taking a fat burner for about a month. once they ran out i chose not to replace them and just go natural. with the fat burner i lost 8lbs. that first week on them, that was motivation to keep going so now i am at 177 the last time i checked, which was last week before my TOM. so im waiting until next week to check my weight again. i workout 5days on 2 days off. i like that schedule keeps me honest. i like to think of it as a job, so that motivates me to go ahead and workout even when i don't feel like it. so that's where i am now ladies and i wish everyone the best in their journey. 0

Hi ladies! My baby is 14 months and it took me a full year to reach back down to my pre preg weight! You ladies are doing great!0

Hi there! I gave birth to my second on Dec 16th of 2013...I gained around 34 lbs I think (pretty close to what I gained with first even though I exercised liked a mad women with 2). A few weeks after down 20! Then something happened and I went up a few lbs, which is where I have been holding steady..am now 10 weeks pp....dang it!
Honestly my measurements are down so the scale is a big fat liar but still depressing! I also think I haven't been eating my best and my diet is crucial for me to lose. I'm doing chalene extreme and will add in some hiit when I get bk to work (on my lunch breaks).
Hopefully the next time I ck in , my jeans will button without a muffin top!!! Lol
No but really, it will most likely take at least 6 months before my body gets the hint that it can drop...pretty typical for my pp weight to hang for a bit. I do hv two beautiful boys to show for it!0 -
I gave birth to my son February 2013, and I've lost all my baby weight plus another 23 lbs. I gained 30 during my pregnancy. Half of it came off quickly. The other half, not so quick. It took me 10 months to get the remaining 15 baby lbs off.0
