I started losing weight about 4 years ago. I started at about 180 and finally got to a weight I was happy at (120-130, even went as low as 110 at one point) in '06. After reaching that weight I'd gain a little, then lose it, gain a little and lose it. That's why I was back in January.
Shortly after I came back in January I met a man. We got married not too long after we met. I got pregnant 3 weeks after we married. Well, I just had my little boy a month ago. I gained 50 lbs while I was pregnant!!!!
Unfortunately, with the pregnancy-induced increased appetite, I reverted to my old habit of overeating. I ate like a pig while pregnant. Hence the 50 lb weight gain. That's not happening with future pregnancies.I think I was approximately 180 when I had him. By two weeks postpartum I was 155. I'm four weeks postpartum and I'm still 155. I'm eating well and not overeating, so I don't know why my weight loss is stalled - it's really driving me nuts! I'm sure it will come off more easily when I start exercising again.
So, that's my story! I'm back and ready to lose this weight!
