Breastfeeding and exercise

Options
I am trying to figure out how to successfully breastfeed and exercise at the same time!!! I shoveled today and burned 482 calories and I already breastfeed so I am also losing another 500 calories a day and now I am starving!!! I need food!!! This is a mess my body is like feed me more calories!!! I need to find something to satisfy my hunger, I don't know what more to eat!! Any ideas?? I guess maybe something with a lot of protein... Help!,

    yes by all means u should definitely eat!!!!. i was breastfeeding too and trying to loose weight and i did loose about 14lbs. before i became pregnant again, but u must listen to your body. eat, just try to stay away from the sugar and fatty foods you should do fine.

    Ok thanks not really used to feeling this hungry and having to make up so many calories i usually only have to make upthe calories lost feeding my baby but that exercise adds an extra almost 500 to make up. Gosh!!
