I have flab that hangs over my incision. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1495762 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 09:47:58 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1495762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only gained 22lbs while pregnant, so I've lost my baby weight already. However, I was about 30lbs overweight when I got pregnant, and my belly is super jiggly/flabby still, so I want to make an effort to get back on track. </p> <p>Ideally, I would like to lose about 25-30lbs more. Right now I'm using MyFitnessPal to track food intake, and hopefully I'll get to the gym soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1495674 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 07:23:45 +0000 daniellemybelle 1495674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was about 40 lbs overweight when I got pregnant, and I gained another 30. I lost 20 right after she was born so I have 10 lbs to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight, and then I want to lose at least another 20, so 30 lbs total. Even though I am only 10 lbs heavier than I was, I went from a size 12/14 to an 18! My post C section belly makes me wanna hurl... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1494510 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 13:51:49 +0000 Charm54 1494510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was easy on myself and gave myself 9 months to lose it . </p> <p>6 months PP and I've lost it all (though my body is not shaped the same anymore!) Now I'm working on losing another 15 and I'll be happy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1494505 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 13:49:17 +0000 sunshineandsushi 1494505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained 70+ lbs with my twin pregnancy. I'm 14 mo pp and have been back at my pre-preg weight since about 9 to 10 months, but was very flabby. At 1 yr pp, I was able to get seriously back into the gym since the evening routine got easier with the boys, freeing up some of my time. My goal now is to lose the jiggle that is my belly pooch haha and tone up arms and legs. I do feel incredibly proud of how far I've come though. And more than just physical goals, I just want to feel healthy and fit so that I can keep up with these two rambunctious toddlers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1494344 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 12:35:28 +0000 preggomeggo82 1494344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm due in April and already thinking about this. I would like to lose the pregnancy weight by the time I go back to work, and then lose the 50+ I was working on before getting pregnant. I'll be rejoining Weight Watchers at some point, depending on how it works with nursing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1494282 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 12:23:31 +0000 catlady 1494282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My original goal was to lose all the baby weight plus an additional couple pounds that I had been carrying by the time I started work again. That didn't happen, but I am only 1-2 pounds from my goal weight now, at 5 months pp. The next goal is to actually start working out again so I can tone up my tummy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1494257 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 12:14:53 +0000 MrsH 1494257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: awesome, good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1494165 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 11:44:37 +0000 Boheme 1494165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: Its set up just like The Biggest Loser, except no one gets kicked off :) You can win prizes for the highest percentage of weight lost individually, and highest percentage lost per team. I'm nervous! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1492656 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 18:01:48 +0000 Running Elley 1492656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained 45 pounds with DS, lost 25, got pregnant again and gained (almost exactly) the 25 back. So I ended up 45 up from my pre-baby #1 weight when I gave birth to #2 last November.</p> <p>I'm currently down 35 pounds so 10 pounds from PP (pre-pregnancy #1 that is). I really just want to lose those 10 pounds. I'd love to lose 5 more on top of that but those last 5 aren't super important to me.</p> <p>Breastfeeding wasn't a magical weight loss solution for me unfortunately. After I left the hospital from having DD I was down 10 pounds and I stayed right there, despite EBF, until I changed my diet completely and started exercising at 6 weeks PP. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1492623 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 17:52:54 +0000 avivoca 1492623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just want to get back to my pre-preg weight. 13 pounds to go... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1492616 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 17:50:34 +0000 MrsMed 1492616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow! You ladies are impressing me with your weight loss skills. I gained almost 30 pounds, lost 15 after my daughter was born in early October and haven't been able to drop a pound since. This is despite serious exercise -- at least 3 times a week spinning class and cutting out bread, rice and most sugars. I'm very discouraged. And getting desperate because I was on the heavy (for me) side before BFP and would like to lose more than just my pregnancy weight.<br /> So Kudos to all of you that have been able to shed the weight. Tips appreciated! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1492551 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 17:26:40 +0000 MrsKoala 1492551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My goal is to tone the tummy. I'm lucky and am back to pre pregnancy weight at 5.5 weeks pp but it's distributed differently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1492478 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 16:44:26 +0000 JessKas 1492478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained 60 pounds with LO and at seven months pp have about 6 to lose to get to pp weight although I'd like to lose 10. My clothes pretty much fit but my midsection is wider and my boobs are still huge. Id really like to get back into shape in terms of endurance and muscle though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1492379 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 15:52:11 +0000 autumnlove 1492379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Same, mine might be 5-8!

However I would be pleased if I just tightened up my tummy and legs. </p> <p>Pre-preg weight: 161LBS<br /> Current weight: 155LBS<br /> Goal weight: 145lbs</p> <p>It needs to hurry up and warm up tho! I want to get outside and play with my babies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1492358 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 15:44:24 +0000 MrsH 1492358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: what's your boot camp challenge? That sounds fun!</p> <p>@Bookish: DH and I both were in grad school before we got our BFP - the last several years have not been kind to my body. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491926 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 13:27:33 +0000 Bookish 1491926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained 50+ lbs with LO, and have lost about 30 of that. I really just want to get back to my pp weight, so 20 to go. The scale hasn't moved in 6 months despite having made some changes to my activity level and eating habits, so it's discouraging. To be honest, I think once I'm done with my Master's next spring I will have more energy to focus on it, and will probably join a gym. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491921 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 13:26:28 +0000 blackbird 1491921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You know what, I gained 60 freaking pounds while pregnant. I did Crossfit, too, and wasn't regularly downing boxes of cookies and shit. </p> <p>It all came off, plus some, with a lot of hard work, though. And I'm below pre-pregnancy weight, honestly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491650 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 12:08:28 +0000 Chillybear 1491650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After college I had a few things happen that were not kind to my body and fitness regime and I gained 30+ lbs so going into my TTC i was on the high end. I gained 35lbs while pregnant and lost it all by 14 week pp. I have since lost 8lbs more and i'm hoping to lose another 25lb in total but i'd like to be lower than my wedding weight by memorial day (6lbs to go!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491636 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 12:04:35 +0000 Rockies11 1491636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am 8 months pp and haven't lost any weight since 6 weeks pp. I work out and diet and bf and nothing works at all! It's really frustrating. The goal is me pp weight - I am about 13 pounds away. I don't mind how I look, but we want to have 3 more kids, and I don't want to keep layering on extra pounds with each! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491622 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 12:02:33 +0000 artsyfartsy 1491622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm down 25 pounds since birth. That leaves 45 pounds to get me back to pre pregnancy weight...which wasn't my ideal but I was happy where I was. Right now I'm not concerned about working out...I'm pretty sure I'm not supposed to for a while. But we are cutting out the junk food already. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491605 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 12:00:35 +0000 Ash 1491605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: I agree! Your thread on Monday encouraged me to take the baby for a walk and it got me wanting warmer weather NOW!<br /> I think what happened is lo would fuss when I tried to make food so I just never ate and my body got used to it. And I think I could have an ulcer from stressing about going back to work. Totally not healthy.<br /> P.S. You still look great :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491596 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 11:59:03 +0000 Boheme 1491596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm down 45 lbs, 12 away from pre-preg, but want to lose 20 total. I start The Whole 30 and a bootcamp challenge on Monday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491591 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 11:58:19 +0000 matador84 1491591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained 70 with DS, was down to 130 then Prego again and gained around 35. I think I'm about 15 away from goal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491582 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 11:56:20 +0000 MrsH 1491582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: I wish my appetite wasn't there :( and that It would warm up so I could get outside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491577 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 11:55:09 +0000 cascademom 1491577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: All online. I guess I just motivated myself to do it and be accountable that way. I don't have time for meetings and like the privacy of the apps and online, minus that awful pic of Jessica Simpson with her gaping mouth on the front page. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491575 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 11:54:14 +0000 lavender 1491575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 6 weeks PP I'm at my prepreg weight, I'm gonna start working out (since I got cleared the other day) to get rid of the flab. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491569 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 11:53:46 +0000 Ash 1491569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: nothing! I lost a lot just having him (and being in the hospital for 10 days without a ton of food) and then I cut dairy and lost a bit but I think it's mainly because my appetite just isn't there and if it is, it's for something I can't eat (like cake and cookies). Sounds bad, but I just don't eat nearly enough. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pp-weightloss-goals#post-1491550 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 11:49:53 +0000 MrsH 1491550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: wow!
