Wow

I went in for my 2 week postpartum appointment, and I've lost 40 pounds since I was 41 weeks pregnant! I'm actually almost considered underweight now, though, even though I've totally been eating enough. I've been nursing my daughter like crazy, and I'm sure that's accounted for some of the weight loss, but still...40 pounds seems like a lot. I certainly wasn't overweight at all prior to becoming pregnant, either. I was sitting somewhere around the lower part of "average" weight for my height. Has this happened to anyone else?

I haven't had my baby yet, but just wanted to say your story gives me hope! hehe. Right now I'm at 191 and was 154 pre pregnancy. but i want to drop down to 145 after the baby.  .

What's your secret?  

That's great!  

For me to be considered normal weight for my height, I would have to weigh whatI did when I was 41+ weeks pregnant. I'm not considered underweight but juuuust on the normal side.

That's awsome!! Breastfeeding really does help!

Haha, dang! How much do you weigh!

Quoting [Jenn]:“ What's your secret?  ”

I was really careful about what and how I ate during and before pregnancy. I don't eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner, either. I eat something small every 3 hours or so. I also was sure to get some form of exercise every day that I could.

I weigh 140. I'm almost 6 feet tall, though.

I'm almost 5'10" and I weigh about 135. BMI is 19.4 which is in the normal range by about 1.

I know  

Oh geez, you guys are tall! I'm barely 5'3" so my healthy weight is lower.

i normally weigh about 115 before i got pregnant. at 32 weeks (when i had my son) i was 142. I dropped all of it plus somein about 4 days. i guess its just good genes.

I totally need a BMI calculator chart to see where I fall. I'm curious to see.
