edited October 2024 in Success Stories
I gained 65 pounds with my baby girl and I wanted to show the difference off. I am very pleased so far with my success and I am over half way to my goal. If I decide to lose more after I reach my goal I will but at this goal weight I havent been there for a LONG time! So here goes! I have lost 74 pounds since delivery day and 44.4 was with the help of MFP!

Here is me the day before I gave birth! 3-28-11

    Looking fabulous! I'm also 5'10" so know that the number on the scale is deceiving for us tall girls! My goal is under 200 for now. I've got a ways to go but your pics are inspirational! Keep up the great work!!

    You know I do not have a routine much. I do breastfeed and continue to do so. I walk when I get a chance but my biggest success is portion control and logging everything everyday. I see some of the results and I want more so I do not cheat very often but I just stay under and if I am not going to be under I walk or do some cleaning or just get moving in general to get some of those calories burned.

    And thanks everyone! Hope by April when the baby is 1 I can post my ultimate goal weight pictures!

    woment whom tend to breastfeed usually lose weight a little faster than other women...the weight especially comes off of the mid section area nicely too...but however.... u still look great
  • Congrats! You have given me hope. I was slacking on keeping up so thanksa ton!

    And just to add some balance here, while your thought is a prevailing one, surprisingly it is not true for many, many people.
