Question
Losing Weight While breastfeeding!
Allright, I seriously need to lose some weight and I have always heard that breastfeeding helps... but it hasn't for me! I gained 60 pounds while I was pregnant (WOW) and I have only lost about 25. The doctor said no extreme dieting since I am breastfeeding, and I am a pretty picky eater and she told me to make sure to eat 3 meals a day. I still can't shed the pounds. My daughter is 12 weeks old and I am using the treadmill with no avail. HELP!

i thought the same thing. I put on 80 pounds (WOWZER) during my pregnancy. I dropped like 30 pounds in the fiirst 3 weeks. I thought wow here we go i am going to be my oldself in just 5 more weeks... hahahh. the weight loss came to a stand still. I spoke to my doctor and he said that you dont lose weight quicker than other women but you lose more in the end result. Well my baby is 6 months and i still have 20 to go. But good for you hitting the treadmill! I am still too tired to think of the treadmill. Don't diet but eat greens and cutting out some carbs will help you. Eat good things like when you were pregnant and then you will burn them off.

I weighed 145 pounds when I got pregnant and gained 40 pounds during pregnancy. I breastfed for 15 months and was down to 132 pounds when I stopped and I ate like a pig! 3 weeks after I stopped breastfeeding,(but didn't change my eating habits) I gained 15 pounds back!!
