I am breast feeding my 5 months old. I plan to stop when she is 6 months. They say you lose weight when you breast feed, but I have not lost a single pound. Will I lose it after I stop feeding her?

    its true you burn more calories when you breastfeed. If you arent losing you are probably still consuming enough calories to 'eat back' whatever youve burned breastfeeding. I believe the calorie usage goes back to normal once your milk is dry.
