My friend actually did not lose weight while breastfeeding. She gained. 
Hey! Im a nursing mom (my girl is 19 months). Had my gallbladder removed when she was almost 3 months old. Also still havent lost all the weight, nursing makes me wanna eat more than when i was pregnant🙈

It’s most likely because of your gallbladder. My stomach puffed up alot.
Cut your portions & eat more times daily. Instead of 3 full meals a day eat 6 smaller meals & small snacks with water in between. It FEELS like you are eating more, but you aren’t. You are training your metabolism to speed up & helping your stomach shrink.
& gets lots of water, fiber, & protein, & up your activity levels.

Sometimes your body hangs on to fat while breastfeeding especially if you aren’t meeting calorie requirements to sustain milk production.

No, it’s not because you’re breastfeeding, not unless you have any other underlying issues. Breastfeeding usually makes you lose weight faster because it makes your uterus contract and you burn calories as you nurse. Perhaps mention this to your doctor, they can see if you have anything specific that’s preventing you from losing weight.
I expected to, because that’s what you hear, but I didn’t and I really didn’t worry about it after a time. I tried to cut back and I felt like crap, so I just tried to eat a balanced diet with lots of healthy stuff, but followed my body on how much to eat.
My appetite leveled off some time after a year, even though I was still breastfeeding.
My first 2 kids i lost weight my third i gained weight
I lost alot i was 210 when i was pregnant and im now 148:blush: ( 8 months in breast feeding 
)
I have really had to put in effort to lose weight after this pregnancy. The doctor explained that your body is actually suppose to hold onto the fat for milk production. People that lose weight while breastfeeding are just lucky I guess…
Try counting your calories. If you don’t take enough calories in your body may think its starving and hold onto fat instead of burning it. Try an app like myfitnesspal. And put in your weight loss goals, add 500 calories to whatever it tells you for your body size etc because you burn about 500 calories by exclusively breastfeeding. Most people should never go below 1700 calories a day while breastfeeding.
I thought gallbladder issues caused weight issues anyways? That possibly could have more to do w it than the breastfeeding. Really to lose any weight youve got to sweat

Best thing you can do is focus on your health. Eat healthy food ie only fruit, veggies and lean meats, whole grains. Cut anything but water, coffee, tea to drink. And get lots of exercise.
And you are not fat, you have a postpartum body and it is completely normal for it to take a long time to get to where you are comfortable in your body again.
If anyone has anything negative to say about your body give me their number, I got your back girl.

2 months and you’re barely getting all your organs back in place. Honestly your best bet is working out, core workouts because you need the nutrients for you and baby still and you can’t take supplements. Focus on healthy eating if you aren’t already

Breastfeeding in and of itself is very good for getting you “back in shape” after childbirth. Whatever you do, don’t restrict calories right now as you need calories to produce milk and keep yourself and your baby properly nourished. If you absolutely must, ask your OB/GYN about what type of exercise you can work on.

Girl you just had a baby. Do you know how beautiful that is in itself? Don’t worry about what anyone says. You housed a baby for 9 months. Not everyone bounces back quick. You will in time. Do some simple exercises and take the baby for walks if it really bothers you. But you’re beautiful the way you are and your body did the most amazing thing ever. Be easy on yourself.

My first, it just spilled off while nursing. Now 9.5 mo pp with my second, and I can’t change my diet without it affecting my supply.
For me, my priority is to feed my baby. Once that becomes less dependent on my breasts, then I will risk my supply with a diet change.
Give yourself some grace and try a few options!

Breastfeeding doesn’t make everyone lose weight. That’s an old wives tale. I gained more weight while breastfeeding than while pregnant. As soon as I stopped breastfeeding my 2 year old, I dropped the weight quickly. I’m now still nursing my 17 month old and the weight is piling back on.

breast feeding will help with losing weight… don’t eat for two but all healthy stuf that makes you make good milk. pls don’t put stress on yourself. your body will settle out first hormones and stuff… focus on being healthy.

Breastfeeding actually helps you lose weight if you eat right. Eat enough calories a day to support your supply. Every ounce you make is 20 calories burned, so PUMP A TON. and eat healthy foods. Try rawr naturals milk drunk protein shakes. It helps your supply, allergen free, and GOOD for you!

I’ve been nursing for 6 years now. Keto is doing one hell of a job for me when trying to eat good wasn’t cutting it.
First of all whomever is calling you fat is someone you don’t need in your life. Second I would contact your dr in the proper diet to eat while breastfeeding. You need to eat enough to not loose your supply. Eat healthy fats, lean meats lots of veggies. Drink lots of water. Take walks and make sure you are getting plenty of exercise!

Psh, I wanna know, too, because I’ve been doing it for over 2 years and in fact I’ve gained weight. Maybe it’s cause I’m enjoying eating way too much and I dont have any restrictions in what I eat. I’ll start the diet/exercising next year. Also, I think it’s dependent on your genes.

As a loved one told me not too long ago: it took your body nine months to make a baby. Nine months of body changes. Cut yourself some slack.
Seriously, mama. Cut yourself some slack. Your body just went through one of the biggest changes that it will ever go through. I am 9 months postpartum and haven’t lost like any baby weight. Breastfeeding has really stunted my ability to lose it. Everyone told me the weight would just fall off since I was going to breastfeed but nope. That was the biggest lie I heard throughout my pregnancy. I don’t like it but again, it took me 9 months to create my little girl. I would do it all over again, too. You are breastfeeding. Your baby is healthy. I’m sure your baby is perfect. Your body is doing amazing things!! cut yourself some slack. You will get back to it. Rome was not built in a day

I Nigeria when we give birth the first few weeks we message our belly with very hot water using a towel, it helps in making the uterus to heal faster and shrink back to it size in no time, it also help in burning the pregnancy fat, it is done twice a day. After the bath we use a wrapper or shape wear to hold and tie the tummy, we also drink hot water or drinks and no cold drinks till after 40days PP, it a little uncomfortable for the fist few days but became easier as time goes on. Very worth it. Am about 120kg but after having my first daughter my tummy was back to it normal size in 5days. So in most cases here if you see a woman with belly fat after one or two kids she has CS as there is no way to massage or hold the tummy after an incision or the woman didn’t take that bath but we don’t fat shame a mother

I started doing lazy keto when my daughter was about a year old, never had any problems with supply dropping or anything like that. I never counted my macros and cheated when I felt like it. Lost 50 pounds. Watch out though because apparently it makes you extra fertile, as soon as I got my cycle back I got pregnant again and am now eating whatever I want, lol. Planning on going back on as soon as I get through the first 6-8 weeks with this one.

Breastfeeding helps you loose weight but before you eat maybe try salads so you can fill yourself better and drink lots of water! Also a girdle or something to tighten your waste and stomach will male you feel better! It helps you recover from being bloated for nine months! Remember that your body had to accommodate a child in your body and that open your ribs and everything up more! So now you have to put your trainer on so your body can return to normal!

I use protein shakes and take 2 hour walks at least twice a week. Any type of exercise that you can possibly do will help. Try to eat as much protein as you can because when u exercise after all that becomes muscle. Even though periods are shitty there is pluses to it like you loose calories just bleeding. Personally I try not to eat, fasting is the fastest way to loose weight. Yeah I eat 2 meals a day and chew gum the rest of the day and drink water but doing that might affect you breastfeeding wise so consulting with your doctor should be on ur list. Another thing that u should talk to your doctor about is being able to go to a sauna. You can loose water weight in a sauna pretty quickly! I hope this helps
I had my baby July of last year, I’m just now losing baby fat really well, that’s with eating healthy, keeping up with the kid’s and working at a distribution center (which is a lot of heavy lifting and walking) and working out

Honestly any nutritional changes should be discussed with your doctor lactation consultant. Restricting calories can lower your milk quality or even begin to pull nutrients from your own bodies stores to help baby survive. Make sure you are eating enough calories. Too few and your body will go into starvation/survival mode and hold on to weight. A nutritionist or dietician trained for BF moms would also be a great resource.
