Im a short little girl and being pregnant messed my stomach up bad!!! IM beyond covered in stretch marks! So I wasnt really worried about losing weight especially 1 week PP. But DH practically picked me up to put me on the scale and im kinda happy he did. Im down 35 pounds!! Its kind of a little pick me up for the night. How are you ladies doing?

    A lot of women are afraid to get on the scale right after having a baby.  I was glad I did it too, in my first week I had lost 22 lbs. It was such an ego boost.... especially when you feel like no clothes fit, you have spit up in your hair and you haven't showered all day.

    I gained 60lbs and I am down 54. I lost most of it by 3 weeks but I am kind of at a stand still now.

    I was down twenty pounds in the first week or so - and I've only lost about five since (I gained a LOT of weight). 

    :(

    I was like you, I lost about 35 pounds in the first 9 days. At 5 weeks I was down 41. I am stuck at a stand still. I have about 30 more to go haha.

    I gained 34 total, lost 20 the first week, then regained 5 by overeating (I had low milk supply and tried to convince myself that stuffing myself would help - HA!) Now I have about 7 lbs to get back to pre-PG weight. I'm doing Weight Watchers.

    I was 140 pre-preg and am 147 right now. I'm convinced the extra weight is all in my ginormous boobs ;)

    I used to weigh myself every morning but I made DH hide the scale and I havent weighed myself since having DS.  I promised myself I would wait until 2 weeks PP so that some of the swelling would be gone.  I gained 45 lbs and am hoping to be down at least 15 when I weigh myself Monday and 35 down by the time I start working again in March...I have no idea if either of these are feasible.

    I gained 35 and am down 22 so far at 11 days PP. You're right--it's definitely an ego boost to see the scale drop that quickly!

    The loss has definitely slowed (thank you, holiday cookies, cakes, and goodies!), but it's nice to be relatively close to my pre-preg weight this soon after delivery. The last 13 will surely take awhile, but it seems so much more manageable than 35.

    I weighed myself yesterday at 5 days PP and I have lost 17lbs!  I gained 27 all together. Maybe all this breast feeding will make me lose the extra 10 quickly!! Smile
