losing baby weight

How much did you gain & if you were BF-ing how long did it take you to lose it?

I gained exactly 50lbs. I haven't weighed myself since I gave birth on 11.19.12 but I know after all of the swelling, water weight & everything is gone by my 6 week checkup that I'll have a better reading of my weight so I can see how much I want to lose.

For weight goals, did you set a small amount first or did you go with the entire amount if it was a large amount?

I gained 37 pounds with my daughter. I dropped 25 pounds in a week and lost the rest within a month. It was mostly fluid weight.

I gained 20. I don't weigh myself unless I'm at the doctors but it took till 7 months pp to fit into the pants I wanted to. That was my goal to wear my pants by my wedding and I did. I did noth

Oh wow. I'm jealous lol but its great that the weight wasn't hard to get rid of

i gained 15 and lost 35 in two weeks. It was all fluid buildup

I gained 39 and lost 50 by 12 days pp

I actually lost 20 pounds during my pregnancy but you'd be surprised just how much of your weight gain is all fluids. My doctor gave me water pills to take after Valin was born because I was so swollen and it took off an extra 20 pounds!
So that's 40 pounds lost for me and I have been down that much since like 2wksPP if I remember correctly

Lucky! I'm afraid to step on a scale because the last time I was weighed(3 days before my induction)I was 216. If I dropped even 20lbs i'd be greatful lol I know some was fluid though because of how swollen my ankles & legs were

I gained 68 pounds with my first child. Honestly alot of it fell off by itself. but I lost the rest by running daily and doing p90x 15 min abs. I got in better shape then I was before pregnancy after that!
