    I had my son on 10/24 via c-section so now I have a lovely little puffy flap (ick! :sick:) I am just doing a little walking right now, have my follow-up appointment today to see how I'm healing. I'm watching my food...sorta...and exclusively pumping so at least I'm earning back some calories. I gained 50+ lbs during the pregnancy and lost about 26 lbs so far and am definitely ready to get at least part of my old body back!

    Query - my knees are SHOT from the pregnancy, I overdid it in month 9 when my joints were out of whack and I don't think they're back IN whack yet. Anyone know when our joints will return to normal?

    good question my whole bady is out of whack

    It was nice to find you ladies. I am almost 12 weeks post partum, I starting with zumba at 6 weeks but all the jumping also made me feel like something was going to fall out. I decided to give myself a few more weeks and only track my calories. I got my first period on November 1st and was extremly heavy. And I got really scared. There for since my last period I have not yet excersied. But I have still lost 4 pounds. I will resume my zumba dvd as soon as I get my period again, just to make sure that it was not making it worse. I gained a total of 50 pounds losing 20 with the delivery and I have lost a total of 6 so I still have alot of work to do. I have at least 24 pounds to go. But I my goal weight was and is 160 so I have about 50 pounds in all.
