I don't think pregnancy messes up metabolism that much. I have a 3 year old son and a 6 month old daughter, both born by c-section. I know your frustrated, but you are 10 pounds better off then where you would be without an LC eating plan. You might try looking at the other LC plans and see if any may suit your needs more.

You need to remember though that none of these are crash diets. They are ways of changing eating habits and additudes about food to reach a healthy weight and overall health.
