Weight-loss after birth

Lyndsey

How did you lose the weight that you gained after having baby? How much did you lose? How long did it take? When did your Dr say it was okay to start exercising?

I was 142 pounds before I got married. And when I got pregnant I was up to 170. Now at 36 weeks I’m 188. So my weight gain throughout my pregnancy has not been bad, but I desperately want to lose all that weight after baby is born. But I’m so scared I won’t be able to do it.

My husband is skinny and weighs 142 pounds himself. I feel huge compared to him and I’m worried that after everything, he’s just not going to find me attractive.
