I've been up above 200 pounds, I've carried twin boys til a day shy of 38 weeks, and a boy and a girl before that. I started at 143 before my first pregnancy, 148 before my second and 153 before my second.
Here's a photo toward the end of my pregnancy with the twins:

And here's a side by side, 10 months pp and 20 months pp (today):

My goals were to get to about 145, for my summer shorts and fall/winter corduroys to fit, and to get control of my eating and exercise more often. I've reached those goals and so I will now make some new goals!

Wow Ali amazing girl???? I have no pics of my twin pregnancies went to 40 weeks big babies. I am sorry I did not take pictures as my hubby said I was like a cartoon stick thin with huge belly. Well done again. :happy:0

Thanks ladies!
Yes, I was quite big. I was stopped on the street by complete strangers asking me 'How many I had' in there. Even though my body isn't perfect now, I have 4 awesome and crazy kids to show for it0 -
Congrats! I can't wait to feel and look like that again. 44.3lbs to go. Thanks for the inspiration.0

Wow! Nice work momma, you look fantastic!0

Thanks! I woke up this morning and realized I think I'm ready to maintain! I tried on a bunch of clothes from my closet, and not only do they fit, they're a little loose. If I keep losing, my clothes won't fit AGAIN, just in the wrong direction. I'd like to work on maintain a while and I'd REALLY like to work on building muscle at some point as well.
Thanks for all the support. MFP seriously did change my life!0 -
Wow! Good for you!0

Thank you! Just lots of walking/running when I can and an elliptical at home. I'd say most of my weight loss was due to watching what I eat and logging it on here. Edited to add, I'm 5'4".0 -
You can! I really only started trying to lose weight in March. Good luck to you!0
