I didn't see a post for a second weigh in, so I thought I would create one! I weigh myself and measure myself every Friday morning. So whenever you plan to weight/measure yourself this week, go ahead and post your results and or pictures here! :)

Starting weight: 154 (What I weighed when I started working out again at 6 weeks pp)
Last weigh in: 138.5
Current weight: 137.5

1 POUND lost!

Waist: 35" (1" lost from last measurement)
Hips: 37" (1" lost from last measurement)
Bust: 33" (No change)
Thighs: 22.5" (1/2" lost from last measurement)
Arms: 10.5" (No change)

Feeling pretty good this week! Trucking along with slow weight loss... I wish I could zap it away... but consistency and discipline seems to be the key to my successful long term weight loss and goals. :)

Good luck this week ladies!

    I've averaged 2500 calories a day this week (without subtracting for breastfeeding). I'm a little afraid to weigh. ???? I will do my best to weigh first thing in the morning and I'll report in. *crossing my fingers*

    Yup. It wasn't good. I gained 2 pounds this week.... I'm back up to 133. At least I'm going to do super awesome this week! Thanks for keeping me accountable, ladies!

    Only lost one pound.

    Last week: 153
    This week: 152

    Honestly, I haven't had much time to work out so everything I lose is just from BF. I did manage to get in a run this morning. :)

    bcs806 - one pound down is never BAD! :) Good job! I average one pound lost per week... and I work my butt off! Oh how I wish I could breastfeed! ;)

    I know it isn't bad but it isn't great. 26lbs total though so I guess I can't be too upset. Only 16 more to go!

    Hi Ladies!

    I just discovered this group. Yay Moms!
    I just started tracking around three weeks ago after my 6 week checkup.
    Now I have a fitness tracker as well - the misfit shine. love it! I'm really excited about what the accountability of tracking can do for me.

    Anyway, here are my weigh-in stats:

    height: 5'-2"
    pre-pregnancy: 163lbs
    at birth: 187lbs
    current: 158lbs

    1st goal: 150lbs
    ultimate goal: 120lbs

    so, long way to go but I am super determined not to put so much stress on myself that I quit.
    Just keep tracking!!

    Good luck and well done ladies! I think that just by posting and tracking we should all be proud, regardless of the numbers on the scale.

    That is awesome! Not too far to go before you reach your first goal!
