How much weight do you need to lose to be at goal weight? (heres my pics by the way)

[arj]

For me, its 13kg to be at my pre-pregnancy weight.

Im 5'5 and weigh currently 74.2 kg, and started at 61.3.

I would like to be 59kg, and wow do I have some work to do!!

I used to be a size 8-10 with small B-cup boobs and tons of muscle tone, now Im a full-on size 12 with rounded everything and zero muscle! I want to get me back!!

Here's me at 4 weeks post-partum. (scuse the undies) The second pic was me about 3 weeks pregnant with the twins (I hadnt found out yet). SO depressing!!! I'll do it tho. I've been heavier than this before and got it off, so Ill do it again. I just wanna be back to myself now tho!! All my clothes are size 8's and summer is just around the corner!

{Geez I hope no-one I know in real life finds this post, I'm embarrassed enough with clothes on! }

I think you look great as you are! I've lost 3 stone (19kg) since my LO was born, and I'm about 4 pounds off getting into my bmi but would still want to be slimmer.

Omg you so don't need to lose weight, you look great!

I want to get back to 133 lbs like I was last year (I'm only 5 ft). I was 160 lbs and I'm now 156.4 lbs. It's so hard as I'm breastfeeding and it makes me starving! I ended up putting on weight since giving birth just because I ate loads, so now I'm aiming to lose it!

You look great!
I was 180lbs before pregnancy, now I'm at 197. My goal is 135. I had lost about 30lbd before pregnancy and was truckin along on reaching that 135. Now I want to be there by LO's first birthday

OMG you look bloody fantastic, you have no stretchmarks, i cannot even wear a pair of full length togs let alone a bikini
I can post a pic of what i look like with my clothes on and i have another 20kg to lose as i gained 33kg in the end and 13 kilos have gone but the saggy stretchmarked belly is horrendous, how do you do it arj? howcome your stomach is not saggy???? lol i am really jealous, you are gorgeous xoxoox

this is me week two after birth when summer rose had to go into hospital
i had lost about five kilos but looked worse for wear and was covered up in baggy clothes

the other one is of me before getting pregnant in 2011 i had lost a lot of weight and was feeling good, oh how i miss it

I will get there again with exercise at the gym and taking summer out for walks more often, i cannot go to the gym until october :/ but by Christmas i will be slimmer oxox

Arisa thanks for the pics! And I do have stretch marks but not red ones, just little grooves that are small and a lot of them, I know when I lose the fat and baby belly theyll go wrinkley :/

Omg arj you look amazing! I wish my stomach looked like yours after having my twins!! I'm really struggling to get back to pre twin weight!! They are 18mnts old now and I still have about 18lb to loose to get back there.

Thanks, Mea I actually look reeeally terrible in real life, my tummy pokes out the front the same as when I was about 18 weeks pregnant with the twins! (measured it and compared)!
Ive just started the protien diet and am losing weight on that, so its just a case of chipping away at it. I know it wont happen over night, but it will happen. Well, it better, cos I cant afford a whole new size larger wardrobe! lol
