Anyone else still working on losing postpartum weight?

Question

I stepped the scales for the first time today at 2 weeks postpartum. I'm down 21lbs but still have another 20 to go 😔 Hopefully it doesnt stick around long! Anyone have any good postpartum weightloss tips?

Answer

Oh my, I don’t even have a scale at home. So I’ll find out where I sit at my postpartum check up. But girl, I would not be rushing anything right now. It’s so so early. By all means take care of yourself. But don’t let a number on a scale tell you how well you’re doing that ❤️

Answer

It takes time, mama. It comes off some women faster than others. For now just focus on recovering and resting

Answer

Your body just grew a human for 9 months and gave birth 2 weeks ago, don’t stress too much and go easy on yourself mama.

Answer

I’ve lost all my pregnancy weight. However I only gained 13.5lbs and little man was 8lbs 4ozs. 
I’ve lost a total of 24lbs so far (2 wks pp). I’m eating healthy and exclusively breastfeeding. I go for small walks and I mean small walks about 15-20 mins. 
The rest of my time is focused on little man and his sisters. The weight will eventually come off. 
My first pregnancy was really hard to lose the weight. It took me a good year.

Answer

It's so early! Dont put yourself down about this.

Answer

You're only two weeks out from giving birth! Your uterus hasn't even finished shedding and shrinking! You're still in recovery mode from birth, rest up and don't fret the scale.

Answer

It will happen in it own time you are only 2 wks postpartum I would focus on resting and your new baby.

Answer

Thank you ladies for the kind caring words. I'm most definitely resting when possible and enjoying every moment I can with my little guy while he's this little. I never meant anything negative by this post by any means, I've just had back to back pregnancies(I have a 13 month old & a 2 week old) so I guess I'm just very eager to get back to feeling normal too soon!

Answer

Haven't even gone near a scale. My ob said don't even think about losing weight right now.

Answer

Haha would it comfort you to know I gained 76 pounds and I’m down 30 at 3 weeks
