Losing Weight with Breastfeeding
For my first pregnancy, I gained about 17 kg in total, and managed to lose up to 14 kg by the time Justin was 6 months old. Then, for 2nd pregnancy, I gained 18kg, and lost 11 kg 6 months after delivery. I consider myself lucky as I only “use” breastfeeding to lose weight, and still EAT as much as I want!
I have always been a big eater, and I don’t like to go on diet. I can’t make it. The most drastic diet I had was when I was in uni and was trying to put on a black dress to a ball! Other than that, I don’t diet, and I enjoy food.
If it’s not because of breastfeeding, I doubt I would lose weight that fast! But it’s really not encouraged for breastfeeding mothers to go on diet, however, if you really want to know more, you get check out some sites like www.lalecheleague.org for more info. I prefer to enjoy my motherhood, embrace my new body shape and lose weight slowly and safely while I can still eat and breastfeed my baby.
