I'm 5'11", a size 6, and weighed 137 before getting pregnant. I don't know what I weigh now, and I am scared to find out. I know it's not pretty. I hope to get back to my pre-pregnancy size, but I know it is going to take a lot of work.

@Mrsdaredevil: again - we're almost exactly the same!!
I am 5'8 and my goal is 140. I was up 20 lbs from that weight before I got pregnant, so now I have both the baby weight (an extra 20 lbs!) and pre-pregnancy weight to lose! But I'm working out a lot and I eat really healthy (not calorie restricting, just healthy foods).

I'm 5'6.5" and I'd like to be 140 although I would be happy just to reach 150 again.

I'm 5'0" and was 130some a few years ago, and fixed up some bad habits--goal weight was 104. Got to 108 and felt beautiful like I never have before. I was able to stay at 108 for about 10 months before I got pregnant.
I'm hoping to get back to 108--I just keep remembering how pretty I felt.
Currently between by two due dates... and 152 pounds. Hoping to get back to my new "normal."

All through high school I was barely 100 pounds, in college I went up to 150 and right now I'm sitting at 142. I did get down to 125 for our wedding but ate the week of so I weighed 130 at the wedding. I'm 5'4".
My goal is to be between 130-133 pounds. Do I look great at this weight? Nope, but I look normal and healthy.

I was 130 pre, and I"m already up to 151 at 25 weeks. My heart broke when I got weighed at last appointment and she had to slide the scale up another notch! Don't eat any more or worse than I did pre-preg...:-(

@lydg: That happened to me, too. So frustrating. Keep in touch and I'll let you know how my weight loss goes...

I'm super short - 5 feet even - and weighed just under 100 at our wedding in 2008...clothes fit great but I don't think that weight is sustainable for me bc I love food...at the time I lost my appetite from all the wedding planning stress.
I gained almost 50 pounds during my pregnancy but thanks to breastfeeding I am now back down to 109. I think my ideal weight would be 105 but I'm happy with being under 110.

I'm 5' 3" and currently about 113, and I'd love to stay this size forever. I've been up to about 133 before and it is not a good look for me. So, after my future hypothetical pregnancy, I'll definitely be looking to get back down to the size I am now.

@chopsuey119: weird! We are the exact same size! I am usually about 125 when not pregnant & try to keep it that way!! I am also 5'6

5'2", ideal weight of 128. I have a large frame and I'm fairly muscular - I'll never be skinny, but I can be fit and pretty darn strong.
