2.  I've lost 37 lbs and she's 5 1/2 weeks old.  I am overweight though - about a size 16 and I would really love to lose about 40 more.

I gained about 45 lbs during pg and I had lost it all by about 11 weeks PP.  I suspect I've lost a bit more since the move since my clothes keep getting looser.

I gained close to 60. 

I had lost all but 10lbs by 6 months, but thanks to my thyroid situation, I have gained 15 of it back.

Crazycrustacean

1. 26lbs

2. I lost 19 of it by 2 weeks pp. Now it's all gone. I don't know if I've lost more than that though. I'd really like to lose more.

I gained 40 (10 in the last 3 weeks).

I lost 20 immediately but gained 5 back.  My m/w says that sometimes bf moms don't lose until they stop bf.  If my body can justify hanging onto it, it will.

rachelxx05

I gained 23 pounds and I have lost all of it already.

But........... I still have to lose 24 from Gabe's pregnancy and I would like to lose an additional 15 on top of that. 

Katebug421

i gained about 28 (10-15 in the last month, thank you swelling).  As of right now, I've lost all but 1lb, but I stopped BF, so I'm hoping I keep losing, not go the other way, since I was overweight to begin with, and would love to lose another 40 - 50.

FredsNey

1. I gained 30 lbs.

2. I lost 20lbs by 1 week PP.  I can't get rid of the last 10lbs of Kate weight and I still have the 20 to lose that I gained after the first pregnancy.  Hopefully it will come off once I stop pumping.

brisell23

1.  How much did you gain during your pg?  33 lbs

2.  How much did you lose?  How quickly?  I lost 26 lbs in the first week, now I can't lose the rest!  I also need to lose about 35 lbs on top of that last 7 lbs.  I can't wait until I can work out again!

abj22

1. I gained 27lbs total

2. I lost 20lbs in the first 2 weeks. I was so excited but then it just stopped and I actually gained a few back. I've started WW now and have lost another 6.5 lbs. I need to lose another 13lbs to get back to my wedding weight.

Paigeo

1. Gained 35lbs

2. Have lost all but 3.  The 1st 25 came off within 4 wks pp but the last 10 are taking forever!!  Probably doesn't help that I still haven't managed to fit exercise (other then carrying my 17 lb DD around) into my daily routine.

mrs_ross07

I gained 22 pounds.

I've lost 21 in 18 days.

Lovelifeinthesouth

I gained 28 lbs.  I lost 20 by two weeks pp, and a little since then, but I'm struggling with the last five.  I have another ten lbs to lose on top of that to get to my preferred weight. 

stargirlkate

1. i gained about 33lbs

2. i lost 20+ in the first couple weeks, now i have an annoying 3lbs to go to be back to prepg weight (not that my clothes fit still).  i might be doing better if i didnt comfort eat and love junk food so much!

ncsubride

I gained about 50 pounds during my pregnancy.

I have lost all the weight and I am down to pre-pregnancy weight; gotta love breastfeeding.

I gained 9 lbs. I lost 17 lbs. by 1 week PP. However, I started out overweight and would like to lose an additional 40 lbs. or so.

847Christine

I have a complicated answer, sorry.

I gained 7 lbs. w/the 1st pg. & didn't lose it after the m/c, but w/the m/s from the 2nd pg, I lost 12 lbs before I started to gain again.  So, from the lowest weight, I gained 34 lbs.  I lost 21 lbs. in the first 2 weeks pp & have slowly been losing the rest.  I'd like to drop 5 to 7 more pounds & tighten back up.

cherryblossom25

I gained 26 pounds, and lost all of it by 11 days PP. I am now 4 pounds under my pre-pg weight and back into my jeans again, woohoo :-)

ourlittlebean

i gained 30 with ethan's pregnancy.  i had gained 15 with my twin pg before his that i miscarried.  i only lost about 6 of that before i got pg again - plus i'm a bit overweight to begin with.

i lost 27 pounds at my 2w pp appt. and was still that same weight at my 6w pp appt.  i have not weighed myself since then!!

i know i would like to lose about 30 more.  and noway am i wearing my pre-pg stuff.  my body is a whole new shape now

mrsk2005

1.  I gained 43 lbs.

2.  I've lost 28 lbs so far but they have stopped coming off so easily.  I never got the opportunity to BF so that isn't helping the pounds come off either.  I was a bit over weight when I got pregnant so I've got a lot more to lose too.  : (
