Have you lost all the baby weight?

I'll start things off. I gained 55 lbs with DD and I've lost all but 7 lbs of it! I'm thrilled. I'm doing a combination of WW and exercising and I've lost a little over 30 lbs. How about you?

Re: Have you lost all the baby weight?
I gained 70.
I've lost all of it + another 15 lbs.
I blame the stress diet.
And you're on WW? You never talk about it.
What IS baby weight? I'm just a fatty at baseline.
BUT
your math doesn't add up. Don't want to nitpick. But if you gained 55, lost all but 7, then you have lost 48 lbs, not "a little over 30" .give yourself credit where credit is due.

I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
I lost it all very quickly. A lot of it was water weight due to pre-e. I had lost the majority of it within a week of DS being born. All was gone by 3 weeks pp.
BUT...I am now about 10 lbs heavier than I was when I found I was pregnant with DS. I'm lazy though. I also eat breakfast nachos. LOL
I gained 30 lbs.
Lost 25 within a month.
Lost another 10-12 over the next year (5-7 lbs below pp weight).
Put on 5-7 in "summer weight" this summer, so back at my pp weight.

beta @ 5w0d = 12,026! u/s 4/22/14 @ 8w1d it's twins!
I stopped looking at the scale the last month of pregnancy, but I believe I was up a total of 50lbs. It took me a year to get it off and I had to go back to Weight Watchers.
I'm 2lbs under my pp weight right now, and though it's not a number I'm thrilled with, it seems to be my body's homeostasis. Also, my stomach is kinda jacked.
I gained 25 pounds with DS and lost it all pretty quickly after he was born. The pumping exercise plan worked wonders for me.
I lost another 15 pounds with a lower calorie eating plan, but gained most of it back because I love food. Trying to lose it again by eating healthier and actually trying to exercise.
I hate when my weight yo yos. Oh well.
Yep, same. Gained only 21, lost more than that, still have a way to get back to my "normal" weight. Somewhere after T and before S, other stuff creeped on there.
Nope.
Gained 50lbs and lost 40lbs so far. BUT still had 15lbs from the previous baby. Breastfeeding isn't helping me drop any weight and neither is eating cake everyday.
Yes. I gained 31 but was about 20 pounds higher than I wanted to be since I hadn't lost all the baby weight from my son, but with a combination of WW type calorie counting and two kids who never sit still I lost the other 20 plus 2.
Just don't lift up my shirt and it all looks ok lol
I lost the baby weight, it's the rest that was the problem.
I was a thin, fit college athlete until I had to get surgery on both of my knees and was dropped from the team. I spent 3 months on the couch eating and put on weight fast. After that, I never got back into the habit of exercise, but was still eating the same way as I had been when I was burning the calories a college basketball player burned. In two years, I put on 65 lbs and then just sort of stayed there.
Throughout my other pregnancies, I only gained about 25 lbs. After my most recent loss, I lost 35 lbs, so yes I had lost the baby weight. I was doing weight watchers, an exercise DVD with a fitness ball, and walking. Then I got pregnant with twins. I've currently gained 30 lbs back. I'm hoping the last leg of the race doesn't add too much so that I can get back on track again. I'll never be that tiny college athlete again, but I desperately just want to feel comfortable in my own body.
This is my siggy. Love it.
That's awesome!
I'd like to donate some boob to the needy as well.
This is my siggy. Love it.
Thanks, but I think a lot of it comes from a certain paranoia about food now. Also, that would really be a charity that I could get behind! I would dearly love to donate some boob to someone who really needs them! My back would be thrilled!
See, this is where I was. I even ran and swam until 38 weeks with DS. I used to train between 20 to 23 hours per week. I struggle to fit in 2 to 3. I need to lose 40lbs to get back to this weight. I'm okay with it, to a point. I'm not okay with not being able to do half the physical activity I used to do. This all change when ds spent the majority of his time in hospital between 18m and 5 years, more so toward 5, when we actually had money for food (evil, huh). I should have done something then, in hindsight, but I am choosing now to do something about it. I don't want to model poor habits to my kids. I don't expect them to all be athletes, just healthy.
This.
Yea, after a deployment to Iraq (gained weight), came home, got KU, and 7 months PP after baby #1, got KU again, yea... haven't lost any weight, probably gained some, and will still be TTC#3 this month. I'll lose weight, eventually.
My BFP Chart
Yes, I lost all of it plus 10 lbs more.
And then I got pregnant again
