But why does it seem like white women, don't gain a significant amount of weight after they have a baby?

    the hell? i know plenty of white chicks who got that forever gut after having a baby. i also know more black chicks who look great after having a baby. it depends on the chick, how she takes care of herself, her genetics, etc.

    That wasn't ignorant to me lol. If you see the trend more in white women where u are- then I can see you asking the question like that. I can dig it.

    I just cant figure out for the life of me why it seems some women just pop right back into shape immediatly and others stay talkin bout some "baby weight" when their kid is like 6yrs old.

    I'm really just evaluating the women that work for the same company as I do. I almost forget they were pregnant, after they come back from their maternity leave.

    I think it's mostly diet and exercise.
    I see a lot of those women still going to the gym, jogging, walking dogs, and just staying active while pregnant.

    I think it's genetics and how active/how much weight was gained during pregnancy.

    Some women are plain old lazy after they have a baby and then get pregnant right after gaining 80 pounds with the 1st one.

    It is hard to keep up with a new born but you just have to make time to exercise. Also, breastfeeding supposedly helps but how many women do you know that long term?

    They're more body conscious in general and it's easier for them to maintain or lose because their diet is less heavy in fried, greasy foods.

    I can't agree to this because a friend of mine's white wife gave birth to their child last year and she has only put on more pounds.
