Weight loss

3xmommy · #1 (**permalink**) 05-30-2008, 07:57 AM

Not trying to lose weight, as I am bfing. I am talking baby weight loss. I weighed 178 last dr appt, so imagine my surprise when coming home from the hospital & stepping in the scale, seeing 170. I thought with baby & all the water & placenta I would have lost more. Yesterday I was at 165, so at least it is still going down. I remember losing alot more outta hospital with my boys. How much did you loss right after delivery, vs now? Just wondering...

I haven't weighed myself yet. I try to avoid the scale

I may today just to see where I'm at. Though the BF has been very impressive and losing my belly!

I was 155 at delivery (Monday) and by Dylan's 1st pedi appt (Friday) I was down 15lbs. That was a week ago. I don't own a scale but I am very curious to see where I am at now. My hips are still wide so I don't fit into my pre-preg clothes quite yet.

This week I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight. It took 3-4 weeks for me to do it--lost the 30 lbs. I gained.

I'm down 15lbs since birth...lost about 10-12 of it after coming home. I've been at a stand-still now for about 2 weeks. I'm in no rush...as long as I lose it by the end of september for dh's cousin's wedding. I know too, that I was underweight pre-pg, so if I lose another 10lbs, I'll be happy with that.

When I first got home I had not lost anything. I guess from all the fluid they pumped into me. But now im down 23 lbs. I gained 42 though so I still have 19 lbs to go.

I gained 24 pounds with the pregnancy and have 2 more pounds to lose until I am at my pre-pregnancy weight. (I'm 3 weeks post-partum)

Ok - so I just weighed myself. I'm only up 1/2 lb from my pre-pg weight! I'm shocked, yet very happy!!!

Wow, I am jealous of everyone. I gained 20 lbs and havn't weighed myself yet but my clothes are not fitting any better

. I think that 3 weeks of living out of a hotel stunted my weightloss

I have not weighted yet. I put on 36lbs with this pregnancy. After I replace my batteries in my scale I will do an official weigh in and post an update. My belly has gone down quite a bit, but my PP clothes still do not fit. Congrats to all of you who have lost a good portion of your pregnancy weight. That is awesome!!!

I weighed myself the day after I got out of hospiral, 4 weeks ago from today, and was down 11lbs. I lost 6 more over the next wk but have been at a standstill since the. Need to lose another 18 before I'm back at pre preg weight. My belly has gone down a lot more, but if I put on any of my jeans I have complete muffin top its horrible looking!! I guess ill have to start exercising!

I was 142 before delivery, and after was 124. Now that it's been a month, I've lost 6 more, but I wanted to keep all my extra baby weight. So I guess I've lost 24 lbs total, and 18 of it was on delivery.

I haven't weighed myself since 2 weeks PP. I was 170 then. The first time I weighed myself, 3 days PP, I hadn't even lost how much Aspen weighed, I know a lot of it was fluids, but still that was discouraging. I have probably lost a few lbs the past couple weeks, I just don't feel like weighing myself until I feel a significant change, yk? I gained a little over 25 lbs, I've lost over half of that and would like to loose the rest of it and then 10 more lbs. Hopefully I'll be able to exercise more after my 6 weeks are up. I do have to say that the weight seems to be coming off faster this time than it did with Max, so hopefully it will continue to do so!

Okay, I just got on the scales and I'm 4 days PP and I'm down 15lbs. So, looks like I got 21 more lbs to go to get back to my pp weight. Not too bad I suppose:-)

I think I gained about40 lbs. w/ this pregnancy. I got weighed today & I'm 12 lbs. over my usual weight. or 18 lbs. over pre preg. weight (which was a low)

I gained 20 pounds with this pg and had lost 12 when I left the hospital. I lost another 4 pounds over the next 2 weeks, but didn't lose the remaining 4 pounds until a week ago.
