Breast feeding mom, looking for other BFMs.

I've been breast feeding for 11 months...i delivered at 214...made it down to 185 by the end of month 1. By the time my daughter was four months though she was super underweight and the doctor had me put her on solids..the weight started coming back and I got up to 223. I am watching what I eat and exercising about four times a week. I am still nursing but only a morning and evening feeding. I usually only pump once throughout the day also because of work and school. Is it possible I'm having a harder time trying to lose because I am not nursing enough? I read it is the process of making milk which causes you to burn the calories...but since I infrequently empty is this a contributing factor?
