I am 10 weeks post C-section and I have lost roughly 25 of the 45 pounds I gained while pregnant but I seem to have slowed down in my weight loss. I am also breastfeeding so my normal go to with weight loss would be to go very low carb but I'm unable to do that while breastfeeding, also my son doesn't do well with dairy so I am on a dairy free diet as well right now. It's so hard because I get so hungry while breastfeeding and I'm so limited on what I can eat. I guess I'm just looking for some people going through the same thing or that has been through the same thing with encouraging words or tips. I've still got about 40 pounds I would like to lose. I'm trying to do at least 8 thousand steps today and 30 minutes of cardio

    Hi I'm 4 weeks after having a c-section and am also breastfeeding. I've lost 33lbs since birth but I guess half of that was baby haha. This week I've just started walking 20 mins a day with the pushchair. Just thought I'd say "hi" and maybe make friends who are in a similar situation. X
