Did your starting weight when you got pregnant affect how hard it was to lose weight after you had your baby?

Answer 1

Yes if you are overweight it is very hard to lose weight after even if are very slim it still is hard to lose thhe babyfat but much easier then when you are bigger

Answer 2

No. Your starting weight doesn't affect your ability to lose weight after your baby is born. What determines that is your eating habits and your excersize habits during your pregnancy that help you lose weight faster. And also breastfeeding burns like 500 calories PER FEEDING, so you lose a lot of weight that way.

Answer 3

If you're heavy before the pregnancy, it will take longer to get back down to a non-heavy, or ideal, size. However, your question seems to be strictly about the baby weight. Losing the weigh will vary in difficulty for everyone, and it depends on your metabolism, the amount you exercise, and your eating habits.
