My stats do look a little freaky don't they? Actually when I started a couple years ago, my metabolism was damaged and I had been doing low cal/low fat dieting and did gain. Then I got pregnant at a still fatter weight and that is the first number. I did have a really bizarre weight gain (15 to 20lbs) right after my baby was born. I had lots of other bad symptoms too. My hormones always tank after a baby and it gets worse with each successive one. I don't think it would have mattered what kind of program I was following, I would have gained weight. I have a bigger gain problem post partum than I do during pregnancy. Anyways, after I quit gaining, I didn't lose no matter what I did until I weaned the baby. Now the weight is slowly coming off (about 2 lbs a month). So I'm actually 10 lbs lighter than the stats show. Maybe I should figure out how to change those so I don't have to feel quite so humbled every time I see one of my own posts .
