New mom! Need fitness buddy!

soumya_arch

Hello people!
I am a new mom, my baby is 2 months old and i need to get back into my pre pregnancy weight, i work out and do jillian michaels and fitness blender workouts and love the endorphins! I use MFP to stay below 1800 cals, can't go too low on cals as I'm breastfeeding. I eat very clean. Would love to make friends here with like minded ppl.
cheers!
Make good choices

Just an FYI, working out can impact your supply

While it is true working out can impact your supply, it would take A LOT of training for this to happen. The bigger concern is that you are trying to eat less than 1800 calories a day while breastfeeding. That is WAY too low for a breastfeeding mother and could send your metabolism screeching to a halt. You actually need MORE calories while breastfeeding than you even needed while pregnant. You should consult with your doctor, please.

Thank you for the advice ladies, but i have taken these steps after consulting my doc, I'm not supposed to go lower than 1600 cals and according to my doc i can workout real hard, provided i drink plenty of water
