    Pre-pregnancy: somewhere between 160 and 165 (I think)
    Pre-delivery: 240 (yikes! That's what happens when you go from eating 1200 to maintenance and then aren't allowed to work out)
    Postpartum settled weight: 220

    I lost almost 20 more in the first six months postpartum, but then when my baby started STTN, my weight went back up. I had the hardest time losing while BFing. It took so much effort for so little payoff, plus I was watching my supply like a hawk. A week ago my little guy turned one, and we are now fully weaned.

    One year postpartum (5/23/14): 211ish
    Two days ago (5/28/14): 206.4

    I am eating 1750 calories/day and am hoping my body finally lets go of this weight now that we're done BFing! I'm so tired of not having any clothes that fit me (not even close).

    ETA that I'm gearing up to start running again in hopes that it will help me out like it did after my first was born.

    Hi All! I am a first time mom but my baby is already 7 month old now.

    This is my progress.


    pre pregnancy weight: 44 kg (although I've been 39-42kg way before)
    9 month pregnancy weight: 60kg
    one week post partum weight: 54kg
    2 months after: 50kg
    current weight (7 months after): 46kg

    Not much progress as I lose track for some weeks. I have been able to reach 44kg as my minimum weight since pregnancy but well, I binge a lot. I hope I can make a continuous progress from now on. It is kind of hard when you're exclusively breastfeeding as you don't want your milk supply to suffer.

    My daughter is now 5 months old, and I am currently 14 lbs under my pre-pregnancy weight. I've been stalled here for a couple of months, because I wasn't really focused on my health. Monday I'm starting a new exercise challenge. My goal is for my husband and myself to both be able to walk 5k,and in the process hopefully lose that last 10 lbs to get to my goal weight.

    My sister in law has brought in something new for me to try to encourage my weight loss. We have both decided to do the 30 day ab challenge. We start as of tomorrow.
    Pray for me I can keep it up for the 30 days.

    Good luck with the Ab Challenge! I've completed the 30 Day Squat Challenge, failed the 30 Day Plank Challenge and am now doing the 30 Day Shred. They are great motivation to just keep trying and every little bit helps :)

    I am 7 weeks PP. I started out at 150 lbs which is 25 lbs heavier than my normal weight. I had gained 30 lbs after a horrible miscarriage and bleeding that put my body into shock and almost killed me. I think depression may have had a role in that as well. I started getting fit to prepare to try again but did not loose alot of weight, although I could feel my stamina build. With this pregnancy I gained 35 lbs and weighed 185 on delivery. I lost 20 lbs by my 2 week check up :) It was mostly water weight and a large baby (8 lbs 13 oz). I am starting now at 158 lbs and hope to get to my goal of 125 lbs again. I will aim for 135 lbs while breastfeeding so that I do not compromise my milk :) I am excited to see a group of ladies on here in the same boat.

    My plan is to do my elliptical to 200 calories (takes about 30 min, I would love to decrease that time), and pilates on M W F S, I will do Jillian Michaels 30 day shred on T and Th doing each week for 3 weeks. I will rest on Sundays.

    I am hoping to loose 2 lbs a week, and eat cleaner. I have gained a few pounds since starting, but feel slimmer so I may just stay away from the scale for a while and check in a month. I get discouraged easily.

    I am loving breastfeeding my sweetheart, and even though it is tough getting my old shape back, she was worth it!!!

    Hi everyone,

    I'm 11 weeks post c-section.
    I weighed 160lbs pre-pregnancy (had gained 14lbs after a life threatening ectopic pregnancy).
    Gained 65lbs during my pregnancy (yeah whoops)
    Lost 18lbs during delivery.
    Currently weigh 188lbs.

    I would like to end somewhere between 126lbs and 140lbs, but have 28lbs left to lose to reach pre-preg weight.

    Staying away from the scale worked!!! I drank a ton of water because a thread said if one is not used to working out then our muscles will hold onto the water in shock. Today I am 10 lbs lighter :) very encouraging. I also added a huge calorie day this weekend because I think that may have been a little too fast.

    Pre Preg: 155
    39.5 (before delivery): 223
    Left the hospital at 217
    4 weeks Post Partum: 198
    8 weeks post partum: 187
    12 weeks post partum: 186

    I had a 4th degree so wasn't allowed to walk or exercise until 8 weeks. The first 20lbs fell off fast from eating healthy and nursing.

    I'm really starting to plateu now at 12 weeks. Initially all weight started to melt off after gaining a whopping 75 lbs! I just stopped nursing and hope to focus more on diet and exercise now that we can exclusively bottle feed formula. I hope to be down to 175 by this time next month and back to my pre pregnancy weight by Halloween!

    Pre Preg: 120
    Preggo Weight Gain: 35 lbs (155 lbs total at delivery)
    Post Delivery:...I want to say 140lbs?
    4 weeks PP: 135lbs
    2 months PP: 130 lbs
    5 months PP: 143lbs (yeah, I guess I was using BF as an excuse)
    1 year PP: 133 lbs (lost 10 lbs in the last 3 months)

    I hope to get down to 120 soon, but it's going to be a long process of completely transforming my body (gaining muscle, dropping fat etc.)

    I credit dropping the weight originally due to eating well and being very active prior to delivery. I started walking up to 2 hours a day 6 weeks after and kept dropping the weight. Then it got colder and I kept using BF as an excuse especially since I had a huge oversupply and thus gained some weight back. Well, I finally decided to incorporate strength training and real cardio again, along with watching what I eat like I used to in the beginning of March and that's when the weight started coming off, although very slowly. I now wake up around 4-430 am and workout 5-6 times a week. MWF is strength training with recently HIIT cardio and TuTh are longer run / jog days with the dog. I also try to work out on Saturday by taking a class and doing active rest on Sundays (long walk with family, cleaning, etc.) But the biggest thing has been focusing on nutrition. Abs are made in the kitchen :)

    5'2"/5'3"
    PP baby #3: 135
    Day of Delivery: 157.0 (22 lb weight gain)
    Evening I came home from hospital: 148.8 (ugh! I had a 7lb baby and I figured I'd lose more with fluids, blood loss and placenta)
    2 weeks: 142.6
    4 weeks: 142.6 (UGH! my mom came and helped out and just kept cooking!)
    5.5 weeks: 140.2

    Finally getting serious and the scale is moving. So I thought the weight would fall off more since I lost so much easier with my son, but I weighed more then...

    5 lbs to go. Then another 10 lbs to get to goal (married at 19) weight. I'm frustrated, but I do know what to do and I'm starting to get my act together. My husband started back to work this week so I'm guessing I'll probably have less time to eat, but I'll have to watch my snacking! I have a 3 year old and an almost 18 month old and an almost 6 week old. There are snacks everywhere all the time and less meals... Hopefully I can do this quickly and get it done!

    My goal is to be 125 by Halloween (my husband's birthday). I won't hate myself if it doesn't happen though. 3 smalls are going to either make it easier or harder! 4 months 15 pounds, possible to do, but I know the last ten will probably be the hardest.

    I lost about 30 pounds prior to becoming pregnant. I did not eat healthy during my pregnancy, and had a very rough time emotionally. I went from about 170 to 206. I'm now at 188. I hope to get to 135 eventually. I exclusively breastfeed and my daughter is 5 months old. I plan to let her wean when ready, so I'm not sure how easy this will be.
