I am 7 mons post partum and I still have 6 pounds to go....slowly but surly, I'm gettin there!!!

I never have. After my first I kept 11 pounds. Just never came off but exercised and ate right and everything.......I still looked good though. I was 115 before and 126 after up until getting pregnant again. After having that baby I didn't even have time to lose the weight and horrible stuff happened and I actually started gaining more weight then got pregnant again. I'm hoping I can lose the weight from two pregnancies all at once. It all depends on your body type and everything. I have a friend who gets back to her regular size in a matter of two or three months but she doesn't eat much at all. Everytime I eat wtih her she takes two or three bites and says she's full. She actually will not eat when trying to lose weight and her advice to people trying to lose weight is to not eat. That's not healthy and I dont even know how she can do it. But that's the ONLY person I know of who loses the weight fast.

After my first (I gained 80 lbs) I was smaller than my pre- pregnancy size in 8 months. I am currently trying to lose weight from my second (I gained 25 lbs) and he is 3 months.

With my first I gained about 50 pounds and I lost 40 within the first 7 months I lost that last 10 by the time my son was 1.  
I was breastfeeding so I wasn't starving myself to loose weight, I had to make sure I was getting enough calories to keep up my milk supply.

I only put on 15lbs my first time around. This time I was 7lbs below prepreg weight. I lost weight simply because of stress, and literally forgetting to eat sometimes due to that stress!

I was back by 6 mos for sure.  By 9 mos I was about 10/15 lbs below my pre-preg weight. my son is 11 mos now and i'm still breastfeeding.  I have a horrible sweet tooth and enduldge b/c I know my metabolism is higher b/c of nursing.
