So happy I just might cry!

I started MFP 2 months short of a year after I had my son. When I got pregnant I had complications until the day I had him. They found out at 7 months pregnant that I had precalmsia. Unfortunately one of the symptoms is crazy weight gain. I gained just shy of 70lbs in my pregnancy!... He was 3lb 15.7oz (born at 33weeks with emergency c-section). TODAY I weighed myself. I have officially lost all of my baby weight! Much more to lose, but this is already making me know I CAN finish this journey!

70lbs of baby weight lost!... I know I can lose 49.6 or 59.6 more!

Thank you everyone for all of your support! =D Couldn't have done it without you all!

    You go girl!! I totally feel you and I am glad he is healthy little person now!

    I gained 60 pounds during my normal pregnancy and totally hated myself for doing it. But, through the support of my wonderful husband (who lost 40 pounds using this site) and my awesome MFP friends, I beat my goal weight by 2 pounds!

    Keep it up mama, you're doing great!
