A little personal question..
Hi ladies, I don't mean to offend anyone with this question so please don't answer if you don't want to, I'm currently only at the ttc stage but my wedding is booked for June 2012. I already have about 1.5-2 stone that I would like to shift before the wedding and I know after having a baby it could be quite alot more, so my question... How much weight did having a baby put on you? and how long did it take you to lose it?
I know this may sound really selfish in a way and it's really not the way I mean, I just don't want to be putting added pressure on myself straight after the birth (if I'm lucky enough to fall preg!!) so if I'm setting unrealistic goals I'd rather know now and move the wedding abit further down the line.
Thanks for reading my rambles! xx

I am now 9lb under my pre-preg weight (I'm a big girl anyway!) and LO will be 7 months old next week.
My weight loss is down to breastfeeding and weight watchers (started loosely in Jan and properly into it now)
Everyone is different though, do you find it easy to lose weight usually? Like I said, I'm a big girl so it comes off quite easily - I lost 4st in a year on WW, before hubby came along and ruined everything lol.
Good luck ttc

I'm 11st at the minute, which is about half a stone overweight for my height, I did manage to shift 2st on my own a few years ago but it was with a very strict diet and exercise plan so not sure if I would have the will to do it again!!
So hopefully then with my wedding as motivation I'll be able to shift the pounds I pile on...either that or I'll just get married in my trackie bottoms
Thanks again, really great to get some info on what to expect! xx
Best of luck ttc. )
