Hey! I am EBF too. My son is 5 weeks old today. Feel free to add me as a friend and we can help support each other in a positive way. I continued to use MFP during the pregnancy to stay in the habit of tracking food and exercise, so that is good. I wonder how I will be able to work out with a newborn. Seems like the days fly by and I don't really know what I have done! I have about 20 lbs that I want to loose. I too, find myself to be really hungry, and also having some weird blood sugar things. I am especially hungry during the middle of night feeding. What do you eat during your middle of the night feedings? Hope all is well and that you are able to get some sleep. :-)

Hi everybody! I am in the same boat, I have a 4 year old, 2 year old, and a month old. I am bfing and trying to lose weight, I'm doing fine but I'm also starving ALL the time! Anyone is free to add me

Hey everyone, i just joined this group today. Pre-pregnancy I was 151 (about 10 lbs above where i wanted to be). When i went into labor at the hospital i weighed 202. As of today I am 1 month post partum and weigh 167. I am breast feeding/pumping and just can't seem to get hungry enough to eat all the calories i need to eat in order to be where i want to be with milk supply. My LO isn't suffering from it by any means, but i would like to have enough to sort of stockpile for when i need to go back to work in a few weeks.

I just wanted to introduce myself My name is Erin and i'm always looking for friends so add me if you would like. i don't bite

I'm a little on the back end of this, but I have a two year old (as of Tuesday! GAH!) and we're still nursing. Only a couple times a day but I've noticed its made it harder for me to drop weight, until I actually started weaning her from EBF I didn't loose anything which was devastating to me, but some women need that extra padding to make sure their milk is full of all the goodness that baby needs!

Since we started weaning I did drop quite a bit of weigh but I think more of that was limiting what I ate instead of just eating everything! I think you're all doing wonderful and if you feel like adding me as a friend on here I'd love to make some new mommy friends!

Hi Ladies,

My baby is now 10 weeks old. I've just started regularly exercising and eating sensibly to try and lose the baby weight. I still have about 28lbs to go. I'm BFing 100%.

Please add me as a friend, we can help support and motivate each other.

Thanks

Heya! I'm breastfeeding my 7 month old and losing weight. It's great to see lots of mammas who are on the same journey! Feel free to add me if you want

Hi All,

I just found this group and am so happy to discover that I'm not the only one who GAINED weight post partum while breastfeeding. If another person walks up to me to tell me that the weight will "just fall off" I think I might explode. Literally.

Here's my background: I have a 7 yr old and a 3 month old, and since I aged 7 years between the two pregnancies nothing is really the same. I seem to remember that I slowly, but surely lost the 32lbs I packed on with my first child, whereas I struggle to make the scale move down at all after having gained 40lbs during pregnancy number 2. And I was lighter to begin with this time around...my goal is to at least get back to my pre-pregnancy weight of 150lbs. I'm currently weighing 176lbs, and today I decreased my calorie goal from 2,090 to 1,850. Beyond power walks with the stroller I'm doing the 30 day shred about 5x per week, and I will eventually go back to vinyasa yoga, but it's too far from home right now. I'm trying to stay motivated, and will definitely offer support!

Hey everyone...I am in the same boat as well and this was the post I was looking for.I have 3 kids...4 yr old, 3 yr old & 6 wk old :-)

I lost 89 lbs last year using MFP (242 lbs to 153 lbs) hit my goal weight and got pregnant again. I gained a bunch of weight from the pregnancy- 67lbs. I am currently 6 wks post pregnancy and I am down 32 lbs, 35 more lbs to hit pre-pregnancy weight and 38 more lbs until I hit my NEW goal weight of 150lbs. I'm exclusively breastfeeding as well...pumping. Feel free to send me a friend request.

Hi, I had my 4th baby almost 4 weeks ago. I started out overweight and gained a ton on this pregnancy ( 60ish). I am breast feeding and pumping, but have struggled with a low supply the entire time, but hopeful I can build it up still. I have a bunch of weight to lose as Ive only lost 21 lbs so far. Looking for a bigger support group so please add me if you would like.
Hopeful that I can feed my baby and lose weight and get healthy!
I was in great shape, although overweight, before this pregnancy. I want to feel good again. I have about 100 lbs to lose to get to my ultimate goal

Hi Everyone~
I have a 8 month old and started using MFP about 2 months ago. I'm exclusively breastfeeding also. I was overweight when I got pregnant and ended up weighing 133, having gained 35 lbs. Right now I'm down to 178 with the help from the breastfeeding, working out (when I have time and energy) and using MFP. It's hard because I'd like to be down around 165 lbs and I'd like to try and get pregnant in the next few months. I'm afraid that my weight will skyrocket with the second baby. I had gestational diabetes with the first baby and I'm nervous about getting it again. I'm happy to be in this group and get some ideas and support!
