Gaining weight AFTER baby is 1?!

Question

I’ve never struggled with weight until now. I am nearly 30 and our Oct. baby was our first. I only gained 30lbs while pregnant- lost all of it when breastfeeding. But I’ve gained back 25. I think it’s because we either inhale our food at dinner or eat later at night. Anyone else struggling since having their baby?

Answer

Gained 50 lbs (from 130 to 180) during pregnancy. Lost 30 of it in a week after birth BUT couldn’t lose the remaining 20 pounds until 12 months PP due to breastfeeding. It made me crave for food all the time. And even if I held my self and exercised, I couldn’t lose much. I think it was because of hormones. Breastfeeding threw everything off. I was dieting all the time between 3 Months PP to 12 Months PP but somehow I couldn’t lose it. And all that sugar craving was not helping. But magically my body responded to  all of my dieting at about 12 M PP. I am am back to 128 lbs but my core is still very weak and I feel weaker in general. My new years resolution is gaining the strength of my body back👊🏼🤞🏼HOPEFULLY 🙏🏼

Answer

I gained weight breastfeeding, but then now that my son doesn’t eat all his food I eat it because I hate wasting food
