I haven't weighed myself in about a week, but last I did I had about 8 more pounds until I'm back to my pre pregnancy weight. I'm starting to fit into my old pants again...though the top button is screaming out for help!
I didn't look at the scale at the doctor's office, so I actually have no idea how much I gained. I checked over a week ago, and I was still about 20 lbs over my PP weigh, but I think I've lost more since then.
I have about ten lbs to go which for me is a significant amount cuz I have a small frame. but I am not in a rush to lose it. I feel like it should/could take 9 months to get back and I wanna just focus in bf before I actively try to lose. I do plan on working out as soon as I'm allowed but I will start slow and I'm doing it for my metal health as well as to regain strength. It was also my main hobby so I miss it. Hopefully it will come off as a byproduct of this
I gained 47lbs with this pregnancy. Eek! I don't own a scale so I don't know how much I've lost, but I still don't fit in my pre-pregnancy clothes. I was eating a very strict diet before getting pregnant. Zero starch, but with being pregnant I ate everything in sight and still do with BFing. I'm not surprised that I gained so much and that I haven't lost it yet. It'll happen eventually.
I have a few pounds to go, but I care less about the number than actually fitting into my pants without the elastic band on the button. It's about an inch or two left.
10 lbs from my pre pregnancy weight but I'm not stressing about it I'm sure I will hold onto the last 5-10 lbs while BF like I did after DS. I've started working with a trainer and I'm focusing on toning up instead.
I gained about 37-39 lbs and have lost 36 at 6 weeks pp. Probably because I rarely eat now. H and I got a sitter and went to dinner at Red Robin. I ate maybe 10 fries and was completely stuffed to the point of pretty intense nausea. What is happening to me?!
I've lost my baby weight and more, in my regular jeans/ clothes. And I don't say that in a bragging way I'm having a tough time eating which is weird because I'm a huge foodie. But I've lost a lot of my appetite, I think it's from stress (not parenting stress, life stress).

I gained 31, and I have about 8lbs left to go. But I want to get back down to where I was when I was married, which puts me at 28 left to go. Can't wait to start working out!
Way better then my 2nd pregnancy, where I gained over 60. By this point, I had over 30 to lose.

I gained 45 lbs, have lost 30. I'm not sure what I'm going to do about the last 15. I'm afraid to do strenuous exercise or limit calories too much due to ebf.
I just walk a lot. And, I think my hips have widened permanently as well.
Honestly though,I'm ok with it. I had a banging bod before pregnancy and now it's just average. I though I'd be more upset about it than I am. I still look good in clothes. I'm a healthy weight. DH is still VERY (sometimes annoyingly) attracted to me.
If I'm a couple sizes bigger this year, it's really NBD.
I don't know my exact pp weight (it was the holidays and I didn't step on the scale then didn't find out I was pg until 9 weeks in) but I'm less than 10 lbs over what I assume my pp weight was. I'd like to lose another 10lbs from there, but I'll work on that once I'm cleared to exercise again and can get back to running.
Lost the 25 lbs I gained + 2lbs. Nothing special but everyone tell me it's the breastfeeding... However 10 of it was gone by the time left the hospital...
Gained 33 lost 22, so 11 pounds left at 6 weeks pp. however, my body has changed and I look more swollen now, so I'm not sure what will happen, until that goes down.
I gained 50, and so far have lost 27. I'm so proud of myself for getting this far that quickly. With my first I gained 40, lost 10 then immediately gained 14. It took me over two years to be able to lose any of it. It was really difficult, but I had lost 30 before getting pregnant with DS2. I just hope I can get the rest of this off.
I gained over fifty pounds have five left to go but I would like to lose 15 more.

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.'
Gained 25 and have lost 30, but there is plenty more to go. I have 25 pounds to go to be back where I was when I first got pregnant with my first in 2009.
I gained 37 and have lost 17lbs. Some of my pre- pregnancy clothes fit very snug! Am 4 weeks pp and EBF and so very hungry all the time. I had an hourglass pre-pregnancy body before but on a plus note- I am loving my new hips and my hubby doesn't want me to loose them! How encouraging ...
I gained 20 and I know for sure I lost 6 lbs of it I haven't been on a scale since giving birth. My pre-pregnancy clothes fit quite well though so I think I must be close.

I only gained 17, and I'm down about 10 from my pre-pregnancy weight, but I had quite a bit to lose before anyway. I have noticed that pregnancy kind of... rearranged... my old tummy chub in a way that actually looks much better. It's flatter now. That was a nice surprise. I'm also in the no-appetite camp. I thought with no more heartburn and no more squished stomach, I'd be eating everything in sight, but I'm just not that into food right now.

I am the same with the belly....it looks so much flatter..
Re: Have you lost your baby weight yet?
Gained 50, lost 30 so far. Stuck at this weight for almost two weeks.
Probably b/c I'm eating my feelings.
