hi! I'm new, been trying to loose the baby weight (my baby is 6 months old) that I gained... I was already 15 pounds overweight when I got pregnant and gained over 35 pounds during pregnancy. Now, I'm 40 pounds away from my ideal body...
here is my question: They say breasfeeding burns around 350 calories a day... I am still currently nursing so how can I compute this calory-burning "activity" into my daily intake/activity reports since it is not in the choices
any advise is welcomed
thanks y'all!

on your goals page you go to change goals and you pick custom then on the right colum it has a spot for calories to burn every day. just add 200 to 400 to whats already there.0
