PP Weight

DD will be 2 weeks old tomorrow , & I only have 5 more pounds to lose before I'm at my PP weight ! I gained 36 pounds throughout my pregnancy. My starting weight was 156lbs , & the morning of my c-section , I tipped the scale at 192lbs. I weighed myself this morning , & I'm 161lbs !  

Well , I've got a lot of weight to lose still. My goal weight is 130lbs - 125lbs. & I need to reach that weight by March 31st , as I was just informed this week that , my grandpa has planned a trip to Jamaica for my entire family ! So , I want that bikini body ! Wish me luck !

How long did it take you to get back to your PP weight ?

2 years later.... still working on it.

I was back at prepreg weight by my 6 week appointment. But I'm also very thin and a freak of nature. It took my belly a bit longer to flatten back up but it was all good by bikini season. I gained over 50 pounds  

I'm 3 yrs out and below my PPweight I'm down 83lbs and 22lbs to go.
but seems like you're doing just great! Good job!

That's awesome   and yay Jamaica!! After my first baby it took me about 3 seconds, literally. I had my body back by the time they put the bed back together, it was oddly rediculous. Of course everything was still a little flabby despite being at the same weight. By 3 weeks pp I was fitting my old jeans quite nicely, I may have been able to get into them sooner but the episiotomy wouldn't let me find out, lol. After my second baby it took me about 3 weeks to loose the weight and I was back into all my old clothes fitting them well by 6 or 7 weeks pp. With my third I kept the weight on until about 16 mos pp. I tried so hard to loose it and it just wouldn't budge. I gained a lot more than what I had with my previous two, my first two I gained 29 lbs each and with the last one it was 39 lbs. It wasn't until I hemmorhaged really badly (nearly died) from a post-surgical complications and was terrified to eat afterward (it was butt surgery and I didn't want anything going through there) that I finally lost the 10 lbs I was holding on to and then another 10 lbs on top of it. Of course because it was essentially the equivilant of a starvation diet, I did gain back 10 of those lbs, but I'm now finally back to my pp weight.

2 months.
I wasnt lucky and my body didnt bounce back the week I gave birth. Or should I say, dropped the pounds like crazy.
I had to work my tookus off.

I was 154 prepregnancy- 162 at 40 weeks 3 days, then nine days later I was 144.

I was down 30lbs at 2wks pp (I gained 45lbs ) I'm 3wks pp now and haven't weighed myself, but I was able to put on my pre pregnancy jeans for the first time this morning  

If I stand naked in front of a mirror, I *almost* look like myself again, except my boobs are ginormis, and my tummy is a little "softer" than it used to be   Oh, and of course there are the stretch marks lol

ALL worth it though!!

I was 170 when I found out I was pregnant. 185 when I delivered & now I'm stuck at 155. Unfortunetly I'm carrying all my weight in my midsection. I guess I need 2 start doing more toning. I'm doing the 30 day shred but not consistantly
