Hi everyone, im new to my fitness pal and have set up my profile however i cant see any allowance for breast feeding or any mention anywhere. Is anyone breast feeding following the guidelines given or adding on 500 cals on top.

Many Thanks

    You add breast feeding as food and it gives you an extra 500 cals if u are doing it exclusively. Think there are other options for when u are weening. Hope this helps :)

    There is also a breastfeeding group which has a lot of interesting threads in it.

    I eat my BMR ( you can calculate it under tools) and add the 500 ( I search Breastfeeding and add it to my snacks), I also eat back my exercise cals if Im hungry , or want to indulge a bit.
