Nope, so far from it and I really need to get commited to getting back down there.

Nope! 26lbs til ideal weight. One day I'll get there. -.-

Nope. I have an ideal weight range and I'm not too far from it, though it feels like I've been trying forever to get there. 13-lbs to go. I've been back at my pre-pregnancy weight for a while but the scale wouldn't budge--ideal weight is 13-18lbs. away, hopefully I reach it soon.

I am right now! I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that I was close to my ideal weight before pregnancy, and was really fit. I'm also running with S in the BOB, so that certainly doesn't hurt.
I'd like to get back into running more consistently though. I feel like that's when I feel the best as it keeps my stress level down too.

Heck no! Goal one is to lose 25 lbs, goal two is to lose 10 more after that.

I am about 10 pounds from where I want to be, 15 pounds to where I COULD get, but probably couldn't stay for long.
I've been working on my weight actively for about 2.5 months and I am getting there. I had to hit a low point first though.

About 10lbs from my goal. I don't know how or if I'll ever get there. I don't think I can put in much more effort, lol
coconut / 8854 posts
No way! I'm about 50 lbs over my ideal weight, and 60-65 lbs over my dream weight.
pear / 1837 posts
Nope. 25 lbs to go before I'm back at my ideal weight (although it's been a LONG time since I've been there). I'm very close to my pp weight but it's just distributed so differently that I feel like it looks like more.
grapefruit / 4311 posts
No... I'm about 6lbs from my "I don't hate myself" weight, and 15lbs from ideal weight.

Nope. Back to pre-pregnancy weight, but would still like to lose 15 lbs to be at my happy place. Would need to lose 20 to be close to my honeymoon/H.S. weight - but that's probably a pipe dream.

Yes it took me 2 years to get here, but I'm so pleased with the results.
GOLD / squash / 13464 posts
Nope... 9lbs to go. But I don't think they are going anywhere until I wean.
pomelo / 5509 posts
Yes. Sort of. I fluctuate within 3 pounds of it weekly, but I know that's normal. BUT I did/do have to work to keep it here AND I don't have any kids yet, so I am sure I have it easier than most.
grapefruit / 4085 posts
Just about. I did gain about 45 lbs. when pregnant. I'd like to lose another few pounds, but if I tell people that, they think I'm insane. I'm just a few shy from pre-preg so I just want to be at that number again if possible.
pomelo / 5257 posts
No I'd be happy to lose at least 5 pounds; I'd be thrilled to lose 10! I've been exercising way more over the past few months, though, and the scale just isn't budging
I am definitely more toned, so I try to just keep telling myself muscle weighs more than fat, haha.
GOLD / squash / 13464 posts
@chopsuey119: Um. If you lost 26 pounds you might be able to share clothes with M.
honeydew / 7488 posts
I recently got to my ideal weight, but I didn't do it by exercise so I want to get stronger and excercise now!

Pshhh, I wish! I'm 25 lbs away from pre-pregnancy and and 35 lbs away from my ideal weight. It's hard to lose the rest because I'm within standards for the military, so knowing that makes me lazy.
apricot / 469 posts
Almost, still a few pounds to go, maybe 5 or 6, but it's more the 'redistribution' of weight after having a baby that is a pita for me.
coconut / 8681 posts
@MamaMoose: Lol!!! Seriously!
Nope. I was still up from PP weight when I got pregnant with baby #2. My weight gain has been going really well this time though and I'm on track to end up lower than I ended with E. So after this baby is born it's on!
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21616 posts
No - ideal weight is about 30 lbs less! But I would be happy about 20-25 lbs down, as long as I was toner.
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
I have 7 pounds to go before pre pregnancy weight. I'm not unhappy with my current weight though.
squash / 13764 posts
I think? I haven't weighed myself since 4 months pp, and I'm at 9 months pp now...so I imagine I'm at my pre preg weight, which was my happy weight. BUT things look much different! @MamaMoose: I also think (hope?) things will get firmer when I wean.
GOLD / pineapple / 12662 posts
@MamaMoose: @Running Elley: @chopsuey119: She may be able to already!
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
Nope. I've got about 13 to go or the equivalent of a pant size. I hope i can get it down there by 6 months pp, though!
GOLD / pomelo / 5737 posts
Absolutely not.. And I can't even blame baby weight because I was below my prepreg weight before.
hostess / wonderful honeydew / 32460 posts
@MsLipGloss: @Running Elley: @MamaMoose: HA! you gals are loca. I'm seriously carrying an extra 20 in my boobs, arms, belly, back and face. haha
watermelon / 14206 posts
nope...I'm below my prepreg weight, but still have a ways to go. Is it weird that I'm hoping that another pregnancy will help me lose more weight again? That's how I got to this weight...
coconut / 8681 posts
@chopsuey119: You carry weight really well then lady I'm jealous!
nectarine / 2667 posts
I guess so? I don't weigh myself very often (now that my cousin moved out and took her scale ), but last time I did it was just about my typical weigh pre-pregnancy and I was happy at that weight. I feel good when I look in the mirror and my clothes fit - BUT I know I could definitely be healthier!!
cantaloupe / 6885 posts
Heck no!! I'm 7 months pregnant and every time I step on the scale my eyes bulge out of my head.
I'm hoping I can get down to my ideal weight after the baby comes, but I started this pregnancy about 15 lbs over my ideal weight.
honeydew / 7917 posts
Yes. I have only gained 3 lbs, and I'm 23 weeks pregnant with my second. I weigh 115 lbs at 5'3. This is ridiculous! Stupid GD. I shouldn't complain, but sometimes I just want to indulge in a milkshake after dinner.
