My AW don't hate me post about baby weight.

in May 2011 Moms

It took me 9 months to put on 25 pounds while pregnant.
It took me 14 days to lose that 25 pounds, plus 5 more!

*edited because I'm an asshat and can't spell lose*

I still have about 20 pounds to shed before I'll consider being happy with my weight...but I am proud of myself for not completely sabotaging my Weight Watchers progress from the year before our BFP.

Pretty sad state of affairs when 2 weeks post pardum I am looking better in my bathing suits than I did last summer.

    Congrats! I hope that my weight comes off like that.  I have gained a total of 40 lbs so far and I am not looking forward to how long it may take me to get back to normal.

    Amazing - congrats to you! I'm hoping the weight I've gained "falls off" like everyone keeps telling me it will... I gained a lot more than you did so I'm doubtful. First, I need to get this little one out.

    This weight has come off without even trying.  I guess I have been more conscious of what I am putting into my body, but not to any kind of extreme. 

    I can probably give all the credit to EBFing and practically flooding my body with water (I'm drinking almost 2 gallons a day right now without forcing myself) all day long. I haven't had anything other than water to drink for 2 weeks...and I don't miss it. You know what they say about not drinking your calories...what a waste! I'm eating small meals every 2-3 hours when I'm awake during the day...relatively healthy things - turkey sandwiches, apples with peanut butter, hard boiled eggs, cottage cheese with peaches - but I'm also eating a Klondike bar or mini key lime pie every evening, too. Oink!

    Congrats!!  This gives me hope!  I've gained, 40lbs.  I'd like to lose an extra 10 as well.  All the hormones I was on and the stress of getting pregnant put me at my heaviest when I got my BFP.

    Edited for spelling fail.


    His three plus my one; we are all excited to welcome a little one!

    I am hoping for the same. I only gained a total of 12 lbs so I too hope to lose it quick along with some extra that I gained doing ivf and not being able to be active!

    Congrats E, that's awesome!

    I've got to agree, I gained a good 15 lbs or so before even seeing the BFP. I'd love for 30 of it to just go away quickly Smile

    that's awesome! keep up the good work.

    the only thing keeping me pumping right now is the fact that I'm losing weight like crayz.

    Awesome! WTG!

     

    I can't wait to have this baby out so I can start feeling like myself again. An extra 5 lbs would just be a plus.

    I am in the same boat. I hope all this extra weight just falls off afterwards. But congrats! That is amazing. I hope you reach your goal soon enough :)

    you rock! yes that is what is making very, very nervous about not breastfeeding is that i won't lose a bunch of weight like I usually do. I remember with my first (csection) I was 6lbs under pre-preg weight at 1 week apt. I guess we will see! Haven't weighted myself yet to know where I am now.

    Awesome! I am hoping for similiar results.  I lost weight at the beginning of pregnancy from eating healthier and besides the insane amount of sweets that I have eaten in the last few weeks I really have been eating healthier this whole time and have only gained 16 pounds as of today so here is hoping that baby making/birthing is also an awesome diet for myself.

    That's great!  I lost all my baby weight with DS #1 within a month and a few more....then I went on the mini pill and started to gain back so I stopped and then it was so much harder to lose.  

    This pregnancy at almost 38 weeks  I have only gained a total of 14 pounds....mainly because of the GD diet I am now on.  I am hoping I will be back to my pre-preg weight leaving the hospital and then some. I have heard people who had GD sometimes lose more afterwards..... I am hoping that could be true for me.

    Again, CONGRATS!  Goood feeling!

    I'm wondering how much I'll weigh 10 days pp. I lost 25 lbs the first 5 1/2 months of my pregnancy. I just now am 1 lb over my pre-pregnancy weight at 39weeks. I'm curious as to how much of that is pregnancy.

    Congrates girl on your quick loss! And of course on your precious LO!

    Its funny how for some, pregnancy can be one of the best things to happen for their figure.

    I was a good 25 pounds heavier than I was comfortable with when I got prego,  mostly because I liked to drink lots of beer.  I have only gained 17 pounds during the pregnancy, and everywhere but my belly has gotten thinner - so I am hoping to be like you - but we will have to see :)
