    I'm in the same boat as you! I gained about 50 pounds (before baby was born), then lost about 30 of it and I have about 20 to go to get to where I was before I was pregnant. I'm also breast feeding. I have read it's not a good idea to cut calories too much because your milk supply will decrease. I'm at 1600 calories and it seems to be ok so far, but I just started calorie counting again. Are you walking or doing any cardio?
