    Granted, I had medical problems during my pregnancy. I was on complete bedrest from 4 months on & was in the hospital at 32 weeks pregnant until i delivered at 35 weeks (twins). I had uncontrolled hypertension & severe water retention. I was 160lbs @ 5'10 when I first got pregnant & when I delivered, I was 245lbs. I was a sick, sick girl. Now, 2 years later I am a healthy 156lbs :)

    I gained 50 pounds... but was fortunate that about 35 was gone within 2 weeks (I had a lot of water weight towards the end... plus a 9 pound baby!). I watched what I ate but not as much as I am now... so hoping if i am lucky enough to get pg again that I will gain less! Right now I just want to get back to my pre-pg weight! (I did get 15 pounds below it a few years ago but then gained everything back!)
