  How close are you to your normal weight? I know the closer I get the slower it comes off. Are you eating enough? Bfing takes a lot out of you and if you're not getting enough calories I think you body starts to cling to what's there. Either way it's only been 4 weeks and your body has been through a lot- give yourself some time!

  I dropped all my pregnancy weight (only 15 pounds, but still!) in 10 days and have been hovering around that mark for the last few weeks. A pound here or there is coming off, but it's slooooow going. So you're not alone!

  Mine plateaued at my pre-pregnancy weight. I am thinking it will stay here until I can start working out harder.

  Mine, too - I lost 30lbs in the last 30 days, 15 in the first week and the rest over the following 3 weeks, and now I'm stuck at 10lbs higher than my pre-pregnancy weight. I was secretly hoping it'd all come off from BFing but looks like I'll actually have to put in some effort.

  This is me, too (even the 10 lbs left to lose).  However, I have to admit that I mentally gave myself a free pass for the first 6 weeks.  I've been eating lots and lots of chocolate (I had to cut out sweets in the last 6 weeks of my pregnancy), so I know I am to blame for the plateau.
