in Motivation and Support
I'm 9 months pp, but am pretty much the same weight as I came home from the hospital. I feel hungry all the time and don't have much time if any for exercising. I need other mamas to help with support. I want to at least get back to pre-pregnancy weight which is about 50 lbs. YES I gained a lot :( Anyone want to be my support/friend?

    I'd love to! My LO is eight months old and I'm struggling too. The hunger makes losing weight rough but we can do it

    I pump and supplement due to supply issues. But I'm there, too. :) I'm pretty sure they say breastfeeding helps you lose weight to have another reason to get onboard, lol.

    Add me. :)

    Not anymore but I nursed my 4 kids - my last one was 14 months when he weaned. Add me if you ever get stuck. I am known to help people with nursing issues.

    Add me- I am 9 months pp also. VERY little weight loss. As soon as I try limiting my calories my supply drops. Need to lose about 30 lbs. Breastfeeding is not helping me loose weight- it is sticking.

    I´m also 9 months pp, still working on my "baby" weight. I gained most of it after birth. I've started limiting my calorie intake last month and, thankfully, haven't noticed a drop in the milk supply. But I'm still worried I might not be eating enough. How many calories are you ladies consuming? Is anyone going under 1800?

    My youngest are 18 months and still nursing. I actually gained weight while nursing 3 kids! How does that work? ! Now that the twins are older, I don't worry about losing my milk supply as much. Over the last couple of months I've been losing by focusing on eating more whole foods, especially veggies. Before it was a lot of convenience foods. Add me :)
