I've heard that "one year" thing before, as well, but I think it's meant as a guideline and average for most women.
I have five sisters, four of us have had babies, and two have got back in shape within a year and the other two took much longer. Then there's ME. My youngest is five and I'm still a long way from where I was BEFORE I got pregnant with him.
But, I wasn't in great shape when I got pregnant with him, anyway, and ate out of control during the pregnancy, etc. I think the way to look at it is: If you work hard, watch what you eat, etc, you can hope/expect to be able to realistically rget back to where you were before the pregnancy.
Good luck!
