Im 14 weeks pp and haven't lsot a lb since having my son!! I had this issue with my other 3 kids, I couldn't lose weight for a while after having them. I breastfed the first 6 weeks but that was 8 weeks ago now so what gives? Why cant I lose weight? I tried for almost the last 2 months and not one lb budged!! is it all hormone related from bfding?? by the way the last week I haven't been logging my foods but I was eating at a deficit and exercising 6 days a week, eating about 1600-1800 calories a day

    I wish I knew. I am working out 4-5 days a week for an hour with my 4-month-old. I stopped breastfeeding at 3 months because I was having supply issues that were stressing me out. I'm still +5 pounds from pre-pregnancy weight and need to lose at least 20 pounds on top of that to get back to my natural, healthy weight. I've read that once your period resumes, that can help, but goodness knows when that's going to happen. I'm so frustrated too.
