    Hi Hi
    I'm new to this app and I had a question. Is there a setting to type in that I am still nursing my baby? I was wondering how many calories I still need to be eating in order to not deminish my milk supply.

    I just logged it in as cardio. I estimated the calories between 375 and 250 depending on how much I was nursing. I think I've seen on here that there is a formula that you can use to estimate the number of calories burned based on ounces of milk produced. Of course ounces produced will just be estimated unless you are pumping.
    FYI, for all four of my children I was unable to lose my last 10 pounds until I quit nursing.
    GOOD LUCK!
