(If you don't want to answer these, what's your goal weight loss [or gain for you expectant moms]?)
What are you planning on doing this week to help reach your healthy weight?
And a GTKY question: What's your main motivation for your weight loss?

It all revolves around you.

What are you planning on doing this week to help reach your healthy weight? Nothing. I won't do anything special until after the baby is born.
And a GTKY question: What's your main motivation for your weight loss? I was once 140 lbs (not while pregnant) and hated it. I promised myself that I would never do that again. I'm 5'2, so I didn't like the way I looked with that extra weight.

What's your weight now?: 136
What's your goal weight?: 125
What are you planning on doing this week to help reach your healthy weight?: Not much I can do as far as diet goes since I'm BFing. I really should get out and walk more often though! I just can't seem to find enough hours in the day with LO around!
And a GTKY question: What's your main motivation for your weight loss?: I'd like to wear a bikini again someday! Although, with all my stretch marks, I may not wear one anyway. But at least I'd look hot in the bedroom, haha!
Lol, we'll if it makes you feel any better, when I was pregnant with A I went in for my appointment, I think 28 weeks. I had an appointment with a totally new midwife, and the first appointment that J couldn't make it too. The MW reamed me out for gaining too much weight, twenty two pounds, and told me I only had three more pounds to last 12 more weeks, but that clearly I wasn't taking care of myself at all. This was totally the opposite of my other MW who'd told me I could go as high as thirty or even thirty five. (Ended up gaining a total of 40ish)
Then I went to work, and then had a client decide to be awesome and guess my age, totally unsolicited, and put me at five years older than I was, which considering you always guess under what you think a woman's age is meant I looked like eight years older. I went into the bathroom and cried on the phone to J because I was old and fat.
Oh, and did I mention it was my birthday?

Bumping from mobile...
What's your weight now?: 136
What's your goal weight?: 125
What are you planning on doing this week to help reach your healthy weight?: I eat super healthy... just meat, fruit, veggies, and oatmeal. I need to start doing some weights again, I really think toning up is what I need the most.
And a GTKY question: What's your main motivation for your weight loss?: I keep saying I want to fit back into my pre-preg clothes. But in all honestly, if I got back down to that weight, I'd want to celebrate with new clothes anyway. So other than my health and vanity, my main motivation is getting a new wardrobe!

Prepregnancy: 125, goal weight with 7 weeks to go 155 to 160.
I'll get on the weight loss train after the baby comes. I'm not really told to slow my weight gain so I'd still be happy with a pound a week. Although I've been gaining slightly more than that lately now that I have an appetite.
Most of the weight is in the belly though. But I should walk and do yoga more. Right now I'm heavily relying on my chiropractor to give me relief!
ETA: My weight loss goal is to feel healthy. I would like to run again, I've ran a half marathon and would like to do a full marathon in my life time. So hopefully lots of jogging with baby next spring! Also DH like to go for walks and runs together. So it would be great to continue that as a family.
Right now I'm not quite back into the healthy eating habits...but with a newborn, I'm lucky if I get one good meal per day. I think I'm living on peanut butter toast. When I go back to work, I'll be packing my lunch salads and sandwiches, no fast food!
I lost 75lbs with weight watchers in 2010 and got myself healthy. I ran a half marathon and did a Tough Mudder. It was the first time I ever felt good about my body. I want to be there again. My daughter also has a body type like mine, so I want to encourage healthy eating and exercise do she doesn't go through life hating her body and feeling like the fat girl.
What's your goal weight? 135 to 140
What are you planning on doing this week to help reach your healthy weight? Eat less desserts, try to go for walks if I can get LO to cooperate, start my lifting routine again
And a GTKY question: What's your main motivation for your weight loss?
I want to fit in all my old clothes again!
Plus I want to be healthy, regain my strength and get stronger, feel better about myself...

What are you planning on doing this week to help reach your healthy weight?
Eat lots of fruits veggies and lean meats! Really limit my carbs but not too extreme since I'm bf'ing. And run at least 4 days. LO is sick so taking her to the gym daycare has been out of the question.
And a GTKY question: What's your main motivation for your weight loss? I NEED to fit into my summer clothes! I literally only have 2 pairs of shorts that fit and summer us already here. The summer before I got pregnant I was racing nonstop and weighed 138 at 5ft9 so I'm feeling down about this weight. Also we want to TTC this fall and I want to be rid of this weight first
Current Weight 131
Goal Weight 126
What I am doing this week
I will workout three times this week and hopefully sneak in a run as well. I have also been trying to cut down on the nighttime eating. DD is still up 12 x/night and I to often go for a midnight snack.
Motivation Pride/Vanity plus the promise to myself of a shopping trip once I get back to my pp weight.
