    October 29: 58.1 - gain, but yesterday's dinner was pizza: usually it doesn't last and I re-lost the day after, so let's see on 31st :-)

    I had pizza as well...thankfully I weighed in the morning. Here's hoping any extra weight is gone before Nov. 1st! lol

    I'm happy, yet I'm not at the same time as I'm trying to do very small weekly weight loss as a nursing mother. I've lost a dash of supply over the month. I've accounted for nursing calories. I don't know what's going on.

    Congratulations on your little one! Hope its not amiss to offer a thought about supply. I'm a nursing mother, too, but my baby is sixteen months so its less critical. I think La Leche League recommends no less than 1800 calories a day for an exclusively nursed infant, so maybe that's why your supply took a hit. 🀷 But you can increase your supply with plenty good calories and fluids for a week or so and then resume. Looks like what you're doing for weight loss is working great!

    Thank you @Farmeress I'm at~2900-3000 cal average day for the last few weeks and still losing too quickly for my liking. It is saddening & frustrating to produce less milk than a month ago. I need to shed some lbs but would like to take the time to do so.

    Congratulations on your quick loss though!
