Has anybody had a low carb diet and successfully breastfed?

Question

I don’t intend to cut carbs completely, I just want to lower my intake without struggling with my supply later. I spend 4-6 days/wk in the gym, if that info is needed.
Thanks!

Answer

it is not healthy in general to cut out a section of nutrition from your diet. that aside, your body needs to be functioning properly to be able to properly produce milk. your body is designed to take what it needs from you (even if you don't have enough to begin with) to produce milk to give to your baby. that being said in theory if you are not eating enough or enough nutrition it's not only unhealthy but also not possible to sustain your milk supply. 
I myself struggle with my body image in general, but especially after having my baby (I'm 7 weeks pp) but you need to balance being healthy- now is not the time for crash diets in my opinion. take care of yourself, mama.
