My weightloss as time goes by (with pics)

So It has been 2 weeks since I had Lilliana. I know I can not work out yet but I do walk and i want to keep track of my weight loss.

But anyways I tried on jeans today and I fit in a size 7!! Which means I am about 1/2 sizes away from my pre pregnancy size (I was about a 3/5).

So here are my statistics I was 125 when I got pregnant I gained a total of 39lbs my whole pregnancy. So I was about 163or so when I gave birth. I have no idea how much I weigh right now but I will weigh myself soon and post it. But my goal weight is 120 It is a healthy weight for my size. I need to tone more, I can start working out in 4 weeks YAY!!

But I will post updates on my goal and pictures when i can work out and all that

But Here are some pictures (excuse the stretch marks)

Me Pre Pregnancy (Sorry if pictures are large)



And here is me now

Get some coco butter! Helped my skin SOOOOO much with stretch marks. Nothing actually takes them away (minus surgery) but it helps your skim bounce back. I "try" and use it everyday, but I get lazy a lot LOL

Actually my dermatologist told me to buy Vitamin E pills in gel form. Split them open and rub it right onto the stretch marks. She says it helps lol

Yes if you can get the Vitamin E pills do that! I hear it works better than cocoa butter. Cocoa butter is better when you use it from the beginning!

The first picture you posted isn't working but you look GREAT!

(Never mind the picture popped up right as I submitted this lol!)

I heard about the pills and My sister gave me the mederma stretch mark cream stuff she spent $40 on it so i will try that stuff first since it was $$ But i will keep the Vitamin E pills in mind

Stupid stretchmarks
All I want to do is wear a two piece again LOL

Ya...I wear a two-piece anyway...hell with it.

Who's gonna say something...I gave BIRTH.

Mine faded pretty good after about 6 months. They looked just like yours. They're lighter now. My suggestion while you're still healing is to wear a girdle (or shaper) to help support your stomach. My stomach actually hurt from being pulled. I lived in my maternity jeans with the bellyband!

yeah I am a fan of shapers LOL

I wear the bella band on my tummy all the time to keep it in place. I need to find a shaper though...hmm where do i get one? And I will not wear a two piece yet I have horrible strech marks on my thighs But I will wear a tankini with the boy short type bottoms.

That is what I wear.
I got my shaper at Kohls.
I got it in nude so you can wear it under anything.

Hmm I will have to find a Kohls near me I think there is one in Wilmington. I just wanna have my tummy back lol or somewhat back now if i can get my hips/thighs back to my normal size I will be happy! lol

Do you have that on demand cable?!
We have Time Warner Cable (not sure what you have down there) but they have an on demand exercise Chanel with a section for pre and post natal exercises.

Hmm you think target would have a shaper?
And we used to have Time warner way to expensive so we have Directv now

I'm sure Target would have shapers!
Wouldn't hurt to check.

Ill have to check there we need to go because my chunky monkey needs some 0-3 month clothes since some of her newborn clothes are getting tight lol

Target has em! Walmart does too but Target has better quality!

I get the onces with thigh-control and they go up to just under the bra. They look real nice under jeans! Everything gets sucked in.

hmm maybe i will look into that to lol

Ya, I like the tops but my hips are so wide that the top rolls up and doesn't do what I need it to. So...I just wear the one that's kind of like a little suit...minus covering the chest.

I also wore my maternity pants forever. I felt secure in them.

I still wear maternity pants..i don't really want to buy new clothes yet.....i wanna try to get down another pant size but who knows i think i will buy one or two pairs of pants. I know my MIL is sending me and hubby on a date when she comes down so I guess I will buy an outfit for that because we are gonna go out for a few drinks (Lord knows i will need to with my mil here lol) And i think we are gonna take advantage and see 2 movies i wanna see while she is here Ecplise, and Grown ups lol

woops i meant Eclipse

HA your DH will see Eclipse with you?

yep lol he actually liked twilight, we both didn't like new moon that much so I hope eclipse is better I read all the books but the movies don't really compare to the books but I will still see them lol

Ya I would need a drink too. My inlaws are...a story.

The pants that seemed to work best for me were Levis. They don't sit too high, but they're high enough to help cover the lower stomach. I bought boot one cuts, surprisingly enough...from WALMART! It seems like in the 9 months I was pregnant, Kohls drastically shrunk their jeans so I'm on strike.

I had to get my DH drunk to see New Moon with me . . . and then he through the entire thing lol

I bought Levis too for the first couple pairs I wore until my old ones fit!
I agree, they were the best.
