Last time I weighed myself at 39 weeks I had gained just over 50lbs. I went 12 days over my edd so I figure 60?
I'm now 4.5 months pp and have lost 40lbs just ebf'ing! 2 sizes to go before I fit back in my prepreg pants! I'm VERY protective of my supply so I'm apprehensive of starting to work out... I'm happy with the loss. =)

@mrsaudi: Yes it is awesome. I found running after a toddler I gained less the second time.

I gained about 55lbs (yikes)! At 9 weeks pp I have lost about 45 lbs EBF, however I was slightly overweight when I got pregnant so ideally I would like to lose another 25 lbs. I just started doing low intensity workouts this week, I don't want to risk it affecting my supply. I am hoping to reach my goal by December.

I gained 37 and I've lost 32 (7.5 months pp). I just tried on my pre-pregnancy jeans today and they fit, although they are a little snug.

Gained 30
Lost 15 lbs by 1 month
Lost 48 lbs by 1 year
I was around 183 when I got pregnant. I didn't weigh myself regularly though, but that's about where I hovered. I gained 30 pounds, topping at 213 a few days before I delivered DS. I lost about 20 pounds in the first 2 weeks (10lb9oz baby included). I hovered around 190 for about 9 months after DS was born. I was afraid to diet while nursing, and the weight just cling to me. I got serious when DS turned 9 months and I realized I was back up near 200lbs. (Right at the holidays). I got down to 170 lbs by the time DS turned 1 year and have maintained my weight staying around 165 to 170 since then (about 5 months). I'm 5'10" and a size 10 now, so I'm pretty happy with it, but want to get to 150 if I can and see if I can maintain it.

Baby 1: 50+ (probably close to 55). I lost it all, but gained 7 before I got pregnant again.
Baby 2: 18lbs so far. -.- Want to keep it at 25. Under 30 for sure. But we'll see!

I gained 43. My daughter is 3 weeks old and I have 11 more to lose to get back to me pre-pregnancy weight but I'd like to lose an additional 5-7 on top of that to get me down to 120. So far it's all come off thanks to breastfeeding and walking. I try to walk between 1 and 3 miles every day.

@Mrs. Sunglasses: I totally have to agree about not gaining as much weight when chasing after a toddler. I gained just under 30 lbs with my first and 20 with my second and my second was almost 8 lbs.
As for how much weight I've lost. With my first I lost it all but then gained 10 lbs after nursing. With my second, I lost it all plus 6 more lbs. I hope to lose another 15 and I'll be happy. I'm not so hopeful though...I'm 5 months pp already!

I gained 45lbs, the last time I weighed myself, 2 weeks pp I had lost about 20lbs, I havent weight myself since but I am happy I kept some of the weight because I was underweight before I got pregnant.

Gained 22 and lost all of it and then some by 2 weeks PP. I still have some loose tummy skin but am back in all of my PP pants and shorts. PP tops are another story though as I've gone up a couple of cup sizes and can't squeeze into most of them.
