Default Met weight loss before babies vs. weight loss after

When I started met I began to lose weight and in a little over a years time I lost app. 70 lbs. I was also on clomid and ttc and last march got pregnant with twins. In this time I gained about 60 lbs back. After having the kids, I had a hard time getting back on the met due to the side effects again. I am now back up to my normal dose of 2550 and on yaz and I am wondering if I will have the same weight loss results I did when I first started?? Has anyone had this happen or have advice? TIA

PS-I have all my "skinny" clothes that I bought right before becoming pregnant that are just waiting for me to start wearing again!

I lost weight so easily on Met before I got PG. since I started it again after DD was born (13 months ago) I have not lost much weight at all. It's much harder.

I am having the same problem. Can't loose any weight on metformin now after baby. I lost only 10 lbs prior to getting pregnant but it was somethin' & I didn't have to do anything to loose it, didn't even work out much really or even watch my intake. NOw after baby I'm watching what I eat & workin' out like crazy can't loose it. I lost 4 lbs. the first 2 wks when I started it again, now last 3 wks can't loose anything. My clothes aren't looser either so not loosing @ all. I have so much fat in my belly I need it to go away. I am going to get on Yaz or Yasmin Aug. 9th when I see my OB/GYN. I hope that helps now I've been on nothing since Baby. My baby was born 3/13/0. I am so greatful for her she's adorable, born c-sec. 39 wks 7.14 lbs. I am so thankful for her the metformin helped me conceive. Now I just want to try to get myself back on track though, my hair is still falling out too. I would be happy to just loose 10 lbs even though I am 40 lbs overweight. Also I am on the Fortamet version of Metformin (Extended version) I was also thinking of trying the true Metformin (Not Extened or Time Release version) to see if that might help also.
