I lost almost 60 pounds while breastfeeding my son (still am). Eat foods that aren't processed. Fruits, veggies, nuts, grains, and LOTS of protein (meat, fish, almonds, eggs).
An example of what I ate/eat in a day:
Spinach, mushroom, egg white omellette with two slices of turkey bacon and a banana for breakfast.
A handful of raw almonds as a snack.
A protein smoothie with berries, natural pb, and almond milk.
Salad.
A granola bar or yogurt with oats.
Chicken veggies ad brown rice for dinner.
And a treat at night (a square of dark chocolate)0 -
Just had a baby 3 months ago and she is strictly breastfed.
I too am trying to lose the baby weight. I pump at least 3x a day to stimulate my breasts in order to produce milk. I drink 8OZ of WHOLE milk each morning and oatmeal for breakfast most mornings, sometimes I make an egg white omelette on the weekends with plenty of vegetables, for lunch I eat a salad, salmon or tuna, for snacks I eat fruits( banana, peanut butter, apples etc). I try to eat 6 small meals a day and I go to curves 3/5x a week for 30mins each day. I also take a supplement called FENUGREEK(3 PILLS each 2x a day after meals)it increases milk supply by a few ounces and you can buy it at walmart. According to myfitness pal I want to lose 1 lb a week because I consider it healthy without compromising my milk supply and my ob/gyn said its fine. Oh and drink plenty of water at least 8 glasses a day.0
