I am close to the skinniest I've ever been...and seem to just be losing more. A few days this past week I was incredibly emotional and ate entire sleeve of oreos each day on top of three good sized, but healthy meals and STILL feel smaller this weekend. I hope I don't get flamed for this...but I'm just wondering if anyone else is having this issue?
My LO doesn't seem to going through a growth spurt, but if he is and eating more this would warrant the extra calories on my part, correct?

i ate a sleeve of oreos tonight lol!!
i am at pre-pg weight already, and i credit EBFing and a daily walk with the babies. i have the appetite of a football team! you're right...your body needs the extra calories and you are burning them! no flame here, we're in the same boat!
I'm not losing weight that fast, but I am steadily losing. I gained a ton, so I have a long way to go. Though my stomach looked more normal early on compared to some other postpartum moms due to BFing.
And I tried to be extra healthy and start funning but it has fallen through. It is hard to find the time at this point.
I think BFing is supposed to burn 300 extra cal? I'm not trying to replace those, but I am just eating most whatever I want.
I lost all 25lbs in the first 2 weeks.... now if i can lose about 5 more id be happy.

I was at first...now its lagged off. At times I have no appetite though and feel nauceus(sp?) about twice a day. I started getting out more to see if that would jump start either my appetite or weight loss (figure working out/ walking can only help...)
It seems like I am, but I'm not sure - I don't own a scale in my home :-P But I am curious! Maybe I should pay a visit to Bed Bath and Beyond and find out haha
I'll be 3 weeks pp on Monday and as of 5 days ago, I had lost 33 of the 35lbs I had gained. So I'm sure the other 2lbs are gone by now.
I actually have very little appetite since being home with LO. I've got a bit of the baby blues and just being so busy and occupied with learning how to be a mom, I've kind of just forgotten to eat several times.

Losing it...Without Losing it
I had to start running to the weigt off, ebf doesnt do it for me either
For some reason,EPing causes my metabolism to go into hyperdrive. I had the same thing happen when I EPed for DD. I eat as much as possible to try and keep the weight on, but nothing works and I'm starving constantly.
I am actually not happy about loosing the weight so quickly. It makes me look unhealthy and I wanted to keep some of my pregnancy weight on.
