I'm a dirty AW

And I don't care.

I'm down three pounds from my pre-pregnancy weight. I've lost 26 pounds in six days.

Apparently having a baby plus breastfeeding is the best diet ever. I'd like to lose at least twenty more, since I was heavy before getting pregnant so hopefully this is a step in the right direction!

    One of my friends lost 15 in the first week (9 pound baby) and 8 the next.  I'm hoping I get that lucky too!

    nice!!

    I agree that BF is like the best diet ever.  I ate a ton and lost weight.  Now if only I could kick the bad habits I developed :)

    Congrats!! Awesome isn't it? I lost the ~20ish I gained in <2 weeks. I have no idea how long it took because I didn't weigh myself until 2wks. I've continued to lose more weight since then (so that should give you some hope if you're wanting to lose moreBig Smile). I now weigh less than I did when I go pregnant and am at the same weight I was at the beginning of HS. yay for BFing! I really don't care to lose anymore though. I want to start firming everything up....if I ever get time!

    I have the worst diet ever too, although I've never had a good diet.
    I'm hoping it doesn't turn around and bite me when I stop BFing. Habits are hard to change!

    Wow, good job momma! 

    I held onto 5 pounds for months, but those finally disappeared two months ago...and I was breastfeeding.  Now that Claire will be 9 months tomorrow, I'm done one pound from my pre pregnancy weight.  I didn't lose a lot right after birth, but I blame that on being hooked up to an IV for 21.5 hours!

    I hate you.  Not really, but I am jealousE.  I am one of the ones that BFing/EPing didn't make the weight fall off.  I never lost the last 20 lbs of the 60 that I gained.  Boooooo.  I'm hoping for a better result this time!

    Same here....It is taking me forever to take off anything.  I am at the gym now every chance I can get.  I have been breastfeeding for over 7 months and it just makes me hungrier.  Have to eat because my sugar drops so all I can really do is eat right and work out.  I was so hoping BF would be the trick to take it all off.

    Same here.  I lost a bunch of weight in the beginning, but I am still battling my last 10 pounds and I'm 14.5m pp.  Sad

    That's awesome for you though Jac!  You have a right to AW!

    That is awesome, Jac! I was the same way and lost all the weight after a week. You can AW all you want. Especially pics of that handsome little boy you have!
