I am still 20 lbs above PP weight. I am ready to fit into my PP clothes already! Anyways I have considered starting to calorie count. Does anyone else? What level did you start at?

Re: Breastfeeding and Diet

  • I joined WW 1.5 weeks ago and so far I am down 6.2 lbs.  They have a plan for BF moms which basically is a few extra points added to your daily total.  I haven't noticed a drop in supply but I should mention that I have always had issues with a low supply.  HTH and GL!!

  • I'm just exercising to help lose the extra 15lb's. Once I'm done EBFing I might "diet", but we eat healthy anyway, ground turkey instead of beef, lots of fresh fruit and veggies, and try to limit sweets.

  • If you're BFing you need to add something like 200 extra calories to the regular amount. I've also done WW in the past, before I was PG and it's an excellent way of keeping things in check.
