BREAST FEEDING AND DIETING?????
Is it ok to diet and has anyone succesfully done it???
I was told your body will store more fat if you cut down. Now i know this last week i have been good YET i dont seem to have dropped any weight. I am sick of been overweight and not feeling nice in my clothes. I dont want to upset my milk supply as at 22 weeks all is still going really well and she is still only getting my milk...no solids nothing!
I live abroad and no WW or Slimclub etc... any advice would be much apprecaited as would any diet sheets anyone could send for BF mums???

I eat loads of junk everyday, plus healthy food too! Since giving birth I take lo in the pram and walk to shops etc etc and have steadily lost the weight, just another half stone to get back to pre-preg size and lo is only 6 weeks old.
I get extra points for bf, so don't think my milk has suffered at all and i still get to eat quite a lot!
I am home to UK for whole of August so will walk everywhere then. Even in the rain...love it!!!!!! Dont get much here!!!!!!!!!
Will check out WW and well done. This is my 5th baby and its so hard this time. With first second and third the weight fell off but with 4 and now 5 it is a bit stubborn. Also, I am 39 so bit of middle aged spread creeping in!!

Maybe you could wrap yourself in clingfilm and sit outside in the heat!! That'll sweat a few pounds off (might kill you in the process mind!)
Let me know if you find anything that works - my lo is only 7 weeks old but I am so sick of being a lard now I'm thinking of doing something fairly soon!xx
karen.....ugh the thought of me wrapped in cling film sweating outside........not worth thinking about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On my baby born march 08 forum we have beed brave and admitted our weight and going to have weekly weigh ins!!!! anyone can join in
