Diaper Swappers

Thought some of us might want to start thinking about dropping the baby pounds we've gained.. I am not going to do anything too much yet as she's just 11 days old.. Right now I plan to just increase my water intake and avoid junk food. Here's my stats:

I am 5'5"
Pre-pg ~167 (had just lost 30# and had 29# more to go!!!)
Max at end of pg ~ 202 (total gain 35#)
Loss since delivery ~ (16# 1wk past delivery) 186
Short term goal ~ 19lbs - Get to pre-pg weight of 167
Long term goal ~ 48lbs- Get down to 138

I am 5'9"
Pre-pregnancy- 160 lbs
Weight at end of Pregnancy- 202 lbs
Loss since Delivery- 11 lbs
Short term goal- 160 lbs
Long term goal- 145 lbs

I'll update after baby gets here...
I was 138 lbs after my weight loss after having DD, but I didn't drop anything until she was 6 months old. I gained 20 lbs back when I got H. Pylori twice in 6 months

I don't think I need to hit 138 again, that was a bit small, but I would be really happy to get back to 145 and a size 8-10.

I agree 138 would be too thin for your height! Not sure what shape you are, but I am an 'apple' and was in a size 10 when I was 167. At 138/140 I am in a 5/6! If I let myself go lower than 130s, I look very sick so upper 130s is the lowest I will go...

Looks like your baby should be arriving any day! Good luck mama for all to go smoothly!

Thanks

I've got close to an hourglass figure, especially when nursing. Big hips, medium bust and defined waist. It's my hips that throw me into that 8-10! I tend to have 36-38 inches there, even when I was 138.

Lisa, are you BFing? I am and I also have cravings for junk! If it's in the house, I WILL eat it.. lol so I don't buy it unless it's a single treat while out or something.

*Alabamamom* · 02-20-2012, 08:14 AM

Do we want to set a day of the week to weigh in? If you all do, I vote we do it on Friday mornings, because I tend to eat more junk on the weekends so weighing on Monday would likely be depressing! :P
