How long it takes you to return to your pre-pregnancy weight and shape largely depends on how much weight you gained while pregnant. The average gain in weight during pregnancy is 25-35 pounds. During the birth, mothers typically lose 12-14 pounds, leaving a remainder of about 12-21 pounds of weight to be lost afterwards, which - allowing for a 3-month recovery period after giving birth - should easily be lost within 6-8 months. If you gained more than 35 pounds while pregnant, allow an extra month of dieting for each additional 6-pounds gained. Thus, for example, if you gained about 47 pounds, it will take you about 10 months to regain your pre-pregnancy weight. Don't take these weight loss figures too literally. If you have stopped breast feeding and wanted to get your figure back fast then you can have the option of taking natural supplements like Lipovarin - that can support your weight reducing programs effectively.

I started losing weight right away because I was breastfeeding. Before I left the hospital, I was back to weighing exactly what I did when I got pregnant. Over the next year, I lost about 30 more lbs. without even trying. I am pretty sure it was because I was breastfeeding. That burns up a ton of calories.
