Hello, I'm Kirsty. 25 from South Wales, UK. I am mummy to Benjamin (2.5) and Rory (8months)
Currently breastfeeding Rory, so looking for other breastfeeding mummies.
I'm hoping to lose 3 stone by July, eek!

    Hi Kirsty, I'm Jen! I'm from Bristol. Just coming to the end of my breastfeeding journey with my now 14 month old daughter. I found it really hard to lose anything whilst fully breastfeeding but the weight dropped off once I started weaning. Now I only have a good Christmas to blame for my fat backside ;) I'd also like to lose about 3 stone although I don't have any deadlines to work to, just want to set a good, healthy example to the kiddo :)

    Not far from me, I'm just over the bridge. :)
    Yeah, hoping once I've finished breastfeeding that the weight will drop off - quite happy feeding at the moment you though.
    Chocolate is my downfall.

    Breastfeeding certainly made me crave chocolate more than ever before! But then, with the extra 500 calories per day your body is using, why not treat yourself ;)
