My Weight

.

I once posted about my Postpartum Changes. So the last time I checked my weight was two months ago. Recently I did check it again and owh I was so surprised! The scale read 43 kilograms which means I have lost 7 kilograms = 15.4 lbs from my pre-pregnancy figure. My BMI says I'm underweight.

Almost everyone tries to lose weight after giving birth. But as for me, I lose weight easily to the extent that I don't want it to keep going as I'm afraid I'd look like an anorexic. Is it a Yay or Nay? I credit my weight loss to breastfeeding because sometimes I eat like a construction worker, am constantly hungry, not under pressure and not dieting. And for sure I haven't been working out at ALL so that's the only reason I can think of for the weight loss: Breastfeeding.

I figure, as long as I'm eating well and getting all of the nutrients I need, and am feeling good THEN I should be fine. BUT I have to get myself EAT more. For the time being I want to enjoy the result regardless how a little frightened I am now.

hey we're in the same boat!!

pre-preggy i was 41kg.
1st trimester became 37kg coz bad bad morning sickness.
exactly after giving birth i was around 47kg.
habis pantang i became 43kg.
and now maintaining 41kg.

i'm blessed to have great metabolism & abundance milk production!!

still i got remarks like "uh she's anorexic" or "duh, she got malnutri probs".

its a cruel world..ur's slim ppl talks, ur solid still ppl talk.

but since we're the master of our body, as long as we r healthy & happy..who give a toot what other say, kan?

Ella:
hi~
I also suspect it's because of my gene to0 since I was a skinny girl before I entered uni.Now am back to my old shape. But as I said it's maybe now too early to say, we don't know what will happen to our body in the next few months.

Mama Miya:
Yay glad to know I got a company in this boat. lol. you're right. We just have to be grateful for what we are.
