Breastfeeding while trying to loose weight

Hey guys!! I am new here!
Here is my story, short and sweet...
I had my first daughter in 2013...I nursed for the first couple weeks but stopped due to her having a cow protein issue...I didn’t gain much with her so going back to my weight prior to getting pregnant was easy...
I just had my second daughter (almost) 3 months ago. I gained 75lbs with this baby and have only lost 25 so far and I’m still nursing. I want to start counting macros but I’m scared that if I begin “dieting”, then I’ll loose my milk supply. I’m open to any tips/tricks/advice...

And this thread doesn't have anything to do with BFing, but is generally helpful when trying to figure out how to lose weight
