At my highest weight, I was about 35 lbs up from my pre-pregnancy weight. While pregnant, I gained 45 lbs, and was only able to lose 10 lbs (8 of it was the baby).

Today I stepped on the scale, only 2.5 weeks out of surgery, and saw my (highest) pre-pregnancy weight! Another 10-20 lbs and I'll be in my "normal" pre-pregnancy weight range. This is amazing! I tried and tried to lose on my own, and never even got close. I thought I'd never see that number again.

I am just beyond thrilled and had to crow about it! Wheeeeeeeee!

That's awesome! I know how you feel. I'm 7 weeks post op and I'm 13 lbs BELOW my pre pregnancy weight 11.5 years ago. Had 3 kids. Gained a lot after my 3rd. Congrats!

I gained 65 pounds during my first (and only because of extreme complications) pregnancy and had a 4 1/2 pound baby. And he was born two months early. If I didn't gain so much weight he would have been smaller and may not have made it.

That was 10 years ago. My goal weight (150) is my pre-pregnancy weight. I've got a long way to go. It is doable, I just have to be patient. I do fit into clothes from three years ago, so I guess that's something to be happy about.
