and my big 7!

I have to brag a little: I lost 7 lbs at Blair's 7 mo. mark! I stepped on the scale on Saturday and almost fell off --I'm at my wedding weight, nearly 12 lbs less than pre-PG weight. One of my BFing friends said she dropped a huge amount of weight when her baby hit the 7 mo. mark, and I didn't see how that was possible unless she was dieting (Which she isn't) But lo and behold -it is!

I may never stop breastfeeding! jk...

Re: and my big 7!

  • Congrats!  Keep up the good work!

  • LOL. Way to go!!!

    and I love your new sig pic. :-)

  • Oh yeah...I dropped a ton of weight BFing too...and then when Gavin hit the one year mark and I stopped pumping...it slowly started coming back.  That's the tough part...you get so used to eating almost anything you want because you are keeping up with all the BFing and pumping.
  • Mindy - you're so right.  I dropped below pre-PG weight within 6 months of having Nat.  At Nat's pedi appt last Friday, I stepped on the scale and it was a sad moment.  I have lots of work to do...I think I'm at my heaviest ever.  (going off and crying now)
  • Go you!!!! 

    Yup, I'm with Mindy. Bfeeding was amazing. I remember sitting back feeding Ella, loving life, eating like a lard-o, losing weight like an active toddler. 

    UNTIL....I stopped....dum dum....and continued to eat like a lard-o...and gained it all back! :(....

     

  • So true!  I lost a lot of weight while BF.  When I stopped, it all came back.  I have to remember to change my eating this time around.
  • i never breastfead and i'm like 20lbs below pg weight!!

    woohoo! but i had gd when i was pregnant which made me go on a diet and after that i just never gained it back THEN i started going to the gym, even when we fall off the wagon, i jump right back on!

  • Congrats! That is great! Do you think the 70 lbs I gained with my pregnancy will just fall off? Only 2 more months until is 7 months. (A girl can dream can't she?).lol
