Default Did Anyone Lose Weight While Pregnant?

Just curious here?

Of those of you who lost weight during pregnancy, has your weight loss with Cohen's been better than average?
I lost at least 10kg's while pregnant with both my kids ( found it all & then some very quickly afterwards! )
There's got to be something hormonal ( apart from the obvious HGH etc ) Maybe it's replicating the same hormones while pregnant? I don't pretend to know about these things, just thinking out loud?

I've been deviating at least once a week & still am losing? I don't get it? ( feeling guilty too! )
Just seeing if fellow losers have anything in common with me? Thought MAYBE it had something to do with losing weight while pregnant?
I dunno, probably being a spazmo anyway!

Love to hear from you all !

Yep I did with #1, lost about 9kgs from memory and then lost 13 kgs after he was born. I think my (overweight) body was working very efficiently to nurture the baby and thus the weight just dropped off without me trying. I found I loved being pregnant, though I think it was justification for being overweight as in oh yes I'm fat but I'm pregnant. Oh and like you Shar, I found all mine again too. .

With my first I lost weight during the pregnancy and just after giving birth was the same weight as when I conceived - lost a bit for a few months and then slowly put it on BUT with my second pregnancy didn't do anything different but gained during it and after was about 10 kilos more 117kg in Jan 2007, lost weight up until Nov through breastfeeding and got down to 95kg (less than when I got pregnant with the second) and then started on Cohens 12 weeks ago and what can I say...weightloss accelerated into 5th gear!

I stayed the same weight from when i conceived to when I gave birth - so I'm sure there was a bit of weight loss there esp as my baby weighed 3 kilos... I didnt weigh myself after i had her as I didnt have scales at home.

I suffer from PCOS and I was told that during pregnancy my hormones pretty much even themselves out and it is probably the reason I didnt gain anything...also since having my baby, I have found that I'm not suffering the same symptoms of the PCOS and that maybe its gotten better....

Does anyone else have PCOS? Have they found the same thing?
