was anybody overweight before they got pregnant? [pics of me

Okay so i been a chunky girl pretty much my entire life. I've gone thru different stages where i was satisfied with my body, and i've gone thru stages where i cant put down the mcdonalds to save my life.... 2-3 years ago when i was 16/17 i was probably in the best shape of my life.. (still chunky but i liked how i looked) , About a year prior to getting pregnant i put on about 35 lbs and i disliked my body a lot... here are some pics.


in this pic i wore like a size 13, i would give just about anything to be this size again. I probably weighed around 185 lbs.

im on the left. Heres another one where i prolly weighed around 185 I would be happy to be that size again.


UGH i hate this pic, heres me just before i got pregnant. I couldnt put down the mcdonalds lol! I gained alot of weight, i probably was around 220 lbs. My stomach here makes me look like i was pregnant and i wasnt..


and this is me at 20 wks. HUGE.

My question is, since i was chunky before getting pregnant, how good are my chances that i can get my body somewhat back to what it used to be? (like the first two pics) Is it any different for someone who was skinny prepregnancy?
Also if anyone has any before, during and after pics that would be cool.

Any advice is appreciated!

Don't worry..you look great...I gained 63 lbs..now that's something to be pissed off about.

I was a size 16-18 before getting pregnant. I'm below my pre pregnancy weight now, but I'm not sure how much I weigh because I don't own a scale and I'm a nudist so I seldom wear clothes... but my pants when I put them on are looser so I know I've lost weight.

Breastfeeeding and running around after a toddler helps.

I gained 60!!! What a fatass, I had no self control while I was pregnant.

to the OP: You looked good, honestly I am struggling to take the weight off. I was in a 7 pre preggo and LOVED it cause I am 5'8" it suited me well. You just have to watch what you eat and work out a bit even if it is only walking...(this is coming from someone who just ate 4 slices of pizza.. ) lol

I think as long as u plan to breast feed and eat sensibly w/ moderate exercise ...u will lose the weight and then some more

and this is 17 wks

i wasnt tiny before i got preg. but i am pretty short and my wieght def. didnt match...but a lot of my fat turned into baby in the first months and by the endi was a lot of baby! im down to lower than my pre preg. wieght and i havent done anything but breastfeed.! hopefully it's not that hard for me to lose the rest of the weight that i wanna lose! good luck to you   you have a cute baby bump =)

Im just embarrassed because i'm only 25 weeks pregnant... and I look like im 42 weeks pregnant.
Yesterday i was in a clothing store with my friend and a lady asked me when i was due, after i told her i was due July 1st i felt so embarrassed because i look really big to just be 25 wks.

I'm afraid i'm never going to lose the weight that i put on during pregnant and right before. LOL i just want to wear a size 13 thats not so much to ask!

I was carrying so far out that everyone thought I was having triplets....no joke. It was embarrassing....when I was 4 months along, some lady asked how far I was and when I told her, she gave me the dirtiest look (bitch) becuase of how pregnant I looked....hey, she was Asian..and I don't have a single thing against them but we all know how skinny they all are!!!! And I was like you at 25 weeks....I felt like a lard-a$$ and like a whale......I hated it.
