B.A.B.(Body after baby), week 1 post delivery

I was talking to some girlfriends about how I was tracking my progress in my venture to get my body back post baby (pictures, weight, measurements, and body fat percentage) and they encouraged me to post it on my blog, SO, here we go... an online tracking of my progress to get my body back after this kiddo.

WEEK #1 Pictures:




Week #1 Measurements (this will be the starting point, however, I did take some measurements at week 38 just to compare to this week):

Week 38
Belly- 41.5 inches
Waist- 40 inches
Hips- 40 inches
Thigh- 21 inches
Boob- 36 inches
Biceps- 10 inches

Week 1 post baby
Belly- 33 inches (-8.5 lost)
Waist- 36 inches (-4 lost)
Hips- 39.5 inches (-.5 lost)
Thigh- 19.75 inches (-1.25 lost)
Boob - 37 inches (1 gain)
Bicep- 10 inches (0 change)

Weight, week 38- 151.5
Weight, week 1 post baby- 131.5 (-20 pounds lost)

I did not take body fat measurements for the first week but will do that for the second week and beyond. I have to say, it's pretty awesome to lose 20 pounds in a week... still have a ways to go but, hey, to not work out at all and feel mildly more like myself versus a huge tanker truck is pretty awesome. Plus, I was able to fit in to two pairs of my pre-pregnancy jeans... they are a little tight and I clearly still have a little bit of a gut/muffin top from the kiddo but to me that was a huge success. I am so ready to be done with maternity clothes!
