Did you diet and/or exercise while breastfeeding?

Question

I feel gross 4m pp. I’ve been so focused on my baby I’ve neglected my figure. Feeling very low these days.

Answer

I eat extremely healthy, meaning no preservatives, added sugars, shelf life foods, etc. I eat 3 meals a day (lots of greens) with a healthiest as possible desert once a week and I don’t snack. I drink lemon water 30 min to an hour before a meal. We walk the neighborhood 30 min to an hour as many days as possible during the week and do some work outs at home when I have time :) I’m not losing weight too quickly, milk supply is good and feeling great! (Look into Keto ;) )

Answer

😊 I'm on Keto Diet and just walking around neighborhood 🚶🏽‍♀️ Currently breastfeeding my 3 month old Baby 👶🏽

Answer

I have a pretty fragile supply, so I can't  do much about losing weight without running my supply. but clean eating, walking, and a little bit of lifting weights and crunches do alot.

Answer

I found that limiting calories had a big effect on my supply. If you want to change your diet, just make sure your eating healthy rather than eating less. Exercise should be fine, but again, make sure you're eating enough so your supply doesn't dip.

Answer

I was told to Not diet will I bf.  You can exercise

Answer

I didn’t necessarily diet but I ate healthy and worked out 4-5 days a week.  As long as you drink plenty of water-I drank a gallon/day and eat enough calories you should be fine! I ebf for over a year no problem!
