Hello all!
After being overjoyed with a surprise pregnancy, I realized I was already overweight and just going to get bigger. I only gained 20 lbs throughout the pregnancy and delivered an 8lb 11 oz baby girl in August. I've already lost more than I gained but now I'm trying to get in better health and raise my energy level for her. Everything was easy until now.....
Now I am starting to gain weight back!

    Congratulations and welcome to MFP!! There is a thread somewhere out there.... I think the Preggo Platform and maybe a Post Preggo Platform with others who have recently become pregnant or given birth. You are not alone here, dear! Good luck on your weight loss!

    Welcome and good luck. :happy:
  • Awesome! Thanks for the info.
  • Welcome.I am here for the same reason. You are so lucky that you lost your pregnancy weight. I still have a long way to go. Good luck!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
  • What a beautiful baby! Good luck to you.
  • Wow. Sounds very similar to me. I was always fairly thin. I got pregnant at 22, Only gained about 15 lbs through out my pregnancy. Right after giving birth I lost all of my pregnancy weight plus 5 lbs. I was happily surprised. And shortly after that.. it started creeeping back. And that is why I'm here.. plus trying to lose that little pooch right below my belly button, REALLY getting on my nerves. lol. Good Luck to you, hopefully you will find this sight very helpful and encouraging. I just stared this week and so far I'm pretty obsessed. lol. --Stefanie
