    I started working out Tuesday and for mastitis Thursday so I was out of commission. Going to start over next week. I can't wait to shed these last pounds and tone this c/s tummy up.

    prepreg: 140
    right before birth: 176
    current (almost 5 wks pp): 162
    goal: 135-140

    I'm EBF so trying to figure out my calorie needs....I tracked following delivery and don't seem to be losing at 1800-2000 cals so I may have to drop a bit to see a difference. Will be playing around with total amounts to figure it out; not released for exercise yet but doing short walks. I've been stuck at 162 for over 2 weeks now :( Before pregnancy I needed to net about 1200/day to lose weight so I'm thinking about dropping to 1600/day to see if this makes a difference

    I had 10 pounds to lose from my 3rd pregnancy when I found out I was pregnant with Elliana! It's always been an uphill battle for me to lose the weight. I am excited for some accountability!

    I had really bad morning sickness and ended up losing about 15 pounds. So in the end I only technically gained 7 pounds. I really want to use this opportunity to get back to my weight when I was 18. I'm going to start off with some pilates tomorrow, and once the days aren't 105 I'm going to go running with LO in the jogging stroller which I'm excited about.

    I don't focuse on weight - just how my pants fit. My size 14 jeans are tiiiiight. Would like to be comfortably back in 10's.

    I totally understand. I think that is an excellent way to gauge things. That is more important to me as well. Before being pregnant, I was in a size 12 for pants and shorts and size 10 for dresses. Would love to get back down to that. I know I can because I've lost 80lbs before. I just do the scale so I can see the small victories inbetween.

    Goal: 120

    I gained 5 pounds on vacation before I got pregnant. I gained another 29 pounds during my pregnancy. I've got 13 pounds to go! My baby is 8 weeks and I'd like to meet my goal by his first birthday.

    I have a bit of an incentive: I want to be at my goal weight before I get pregnant again. I want to start trying again in July. I have fertility issues so I know it might take awhile.

    Operation Big Brother!

    raphireed - My hope is to be at my goal weight before next pregnancy as well. Is there discussion of when you would like to be prego again? I'm hoping to start trying after my current LO is 1 yr old. gives me 10.6 months.
  • I want this baby to be at least 2 but preferably 3 when he becomes a big brother. One baby in diapers at a time! However, I have PCOS (I don't ovulate without pills and a shot typically) and one blocked Fallopian tube. It took me almost a year to get pregnant this time and it was a miracle it didn't take longer. I plan to go off the mini pill when this baby is a year old and take it from there.

    It sounds like we have similar goals! Is your baby a boy or a girl?

    A girl. She turned 6 weeks yesterday. They grow so fast!!
  • Aw! Sweet baby girl. :) It's so amazing to see these babies becoming more social and learning new skills, but I just want him to stay tiny while still being healthy.

    BTW, my weigh in should have said 154 at birth.
