Before I was pregnant I weighted about 140lbs. The day I delivered I was 186 (ahhh). One week pp I was 174, now I am 5 month pp and weigh 158.4. My ultimate goal is to get down to 125-130.

  • Before I was pregnant, I was 148 lb. My weight when I delivered was 197 lb, and about a week afterwards I was 187 lb. LO is 5 months (today actually!) and I am 189 lb. I'm super sad about it. Part of my weight issue is I am taking domperidone for my milk supply, which can make you gain weight. I plan to breastfeed until 6 months, and then go off the domperidone - hoping the weight will start to come off easier then. Doing my best starting now though!
  • Before I got preggo with dd I was 108. Def. at my fitest. Then went up to 158. Got down to 116. Didn't try super hard cause I know I wanted to try for another one pretty fast. So then with ds I went up to 145. So with lots of work I have gotten myself right now to 110. I'm at my goal weight. So I'm happy to maintain where I'm at.
