  • It is really dependent on how many times a day you are nursing and how much milk you produce. Those moms who solely nurse when the baby is less than 6 months (so not getting any food yet) burn about 500 calories more a day. However, once the baby is eating food, they are getting less milk. I think I read somewhere it is…

  • I COMPLETELY understand where you are. I too abused my body with bulemia years ago. I last purged on Dec 31, 2003. I have tried a few different things to loose weight after my 2 kids and I found myself becoming obsessive again. MFP has really helped with that. Zumba has too. :) Congrats to you for loosing the first 4…
