If you know my story you know I gain a LOT of weight in my pregnancies. 150 pounds between both.

I did not know it was going to happen, but I did know after the fact I would do everything in my power to lose it NOT for vanity points but for my HEALTH, especially after having preeclampsia.

Over time, I lost all of that weight. 80 pounds before getting pregnant with my second son, and 70 pounds after my second pregnancy.

So how long did it take? How did my body change over the course of that postpartum weight loss? And what is REALISTIC for moms out losing weight postpartum? That's what we're talking about today!
