breakfast) bowl of oatmeal with 1/2 banana, cup of coffee with coconut based creamer (am breastfeeding and on non dairy, non soy).

lunch) turkey ,tomato, and avocado sandwich on 1 large slice bread.

snack) 3 squares dark chocolate (from a larger bar)

dinner) glass of wine, bowl of arugula salad with 1/2 apple and a handful of walnuts, olive oil/balsamic dressing. 1/2 c. mango sorbet. 3 bites of my son's pasta that he did not finish.

I am currently about 10 lbs overweight. I gained 22 lbs during pregnancy and have 12 lbs to lose still, 3 months PP. since delivery my weight will not budge. Meanwhile my other breastfeeding friends are nearly skeletal.

Are you hungry all the time? I'm a pretty small woman and I would pass out and/or kill someone if I ate this little-and I'm not breastfeeding.[/quote]

If I eat enough protein I am not hungry all the time although I do get hungry eating like this if I am also working out and breastfeeding--- though I try not to get hangry (hungry angry).   Some days I eat more. Today I had a turkey burger with avocado at lunch and a piece of salmon and lots of sautéed spinach for dinner, so lots of protein and healthy fat--I also worked out. But I can't indulge like some people--and never have been able to. I was diagnosed with a thyroid condition 15 years ago and am medicated for it, but have never had a fast metabolism, but the corollary is that I don't need as much food as someone with a super fast metabolism either.
