BF Moms--does the ravenous hunger/thirst go away?

Ok, I don't remember being this hungry/thirsty last time. I can eat/drink anyone under the table right now....DS is about a month old. Are you starving all the time? Crazy thirsty? Ugh!

 I've lost 20 lbs so far, but holding steady now and at this rate I'll never lose the last 10 lbs. Crapola.

    Ha ha. I am still this way at 10 weeks out. It's embarrassing when I have thirds and my husband has had one helping at dinner.

    As I read that I was holding a cookie dough frosty with fries and large drink on my desk and a double bacon cheeseburger wrapper in the garbage near my desk. 

    I hope it does go away sometime but not for me so far.  I lost all my preg weight and then some but I am creeping back up again now because I am eating a ton and the crappiest foods too.

    The thirst is out of control- I swear I drinka  gallon of water a day.  The eating is bad too, but I have been trying to fight it as much as I can.  :)  Some days are better than others.  I gained 17lbs when I was pg, but have lost 24 as of today- not a bad problem to have... just annoying.  I can't go anywhere without a huge thing of water.

    I am so glad there are others like me! My poor DH...had big plans to try to lose weight after the baby got here...Normally I'm a good example, but not now! Oh well, if I eat all the extra food he can't get seconds. :)

    I still have that. I feel okay with it because the milk takes the fat from the body. You are suppose to eat more calories than normal anyway

    I eat like crazy.  DH is always looking for something in the fridge and I have to admit I finished it already.  Today I actually made the decision to fight the hunger as much as possible and worked out too.  I am 4 lbs away from pp weight.

    my hunger was OUT OF CONTROL until about a week ago (and DD started eating less often at the same time). I am way hungrier than when pregnant. The thirst is still really bad, but I think that's normal.. I didn't know the hunger was normal? I thought it was just me.

    DS is almost 6 months old and I'm still hungry all the time.  I only have a few pounds to lose to be at my pp weight so I'm not too worried about it.
