[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 33 5’3” and at 135lb. This is where I ended up after three kids in 4.5 years. No I’m not setting! Started getting serious about losing the baby weight in March since baby was 9 months and I’m not as worried about maintaining my milk supply. Guess what? I’ve lost 13lbs in 10 weeks. Don’t despair and start paying attention. You could be halfway to your goal weight by Labor Day and back at it my Christmas. I figured I better get my weight back down now because I’m never going to be this young again. If you are done having babies there is no excuse. [/quote]

Keep in mind that not everyone is done having babies in their early 30s, as you were.  I had my third in 4.5 years shortly before turning 40, and plenty of women have kids into their early/mid-40s.  Yes, that matters, at least for the amount of work we're willing to put in to lose weight, which may or may not matter for our health.

At my thinnest adult weight, I was depressed and on Wellbutrin, which suppressed my appetite.  I'm not going to take an appetite suppressant solely to stay the thinnest I ever was, especially not when there's no health reason for me to (I exercise daily, sleep well, can fit into my clothes, etc.).  My goals are to age as healthily as possible and keep up with my life demands as long as I can without significant modifications.[/quote]
