Hi there, this is my story:
My baby girl was born last July and I have been breastfeeding her since then. Many people tell me that breastfeeding would make me lose weight but it is just not happening... Baby is almost 3 months old and I didn't lose a single gram. The reason for that is my craves for very calorific unhealthy food. I am now stopping eating without thinking and I already feel better!
I found information about dieting while breastfeeding in Kellymom.com. Apparentely, it is fine as long as your baby is more than 2 months old and you keep your daily intake above 1500 calories.
Please, feel free to add me as your buddy!
update: Last week I didn't count the calories, I just removed as much trash as possible from my diet and I already lost 1.3 kg. My goal is to lose another 11 kg without stop breastfeeding! I know how it is important...
