[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the only reason you’re quitting is to lose these pounds magically, I would not quit. Have you actually tried to lose the weight? As in began eating less and moving more? I would start there.[/quote] Please. For many women, breastfeeding prevents them from losing weight. It’s hormonal. Go on any parenting board / Reddit and you’ll find countless stories of women who lost weight once they weaned. I lost 10 pounds in 2 weeks when I weaned. No changes at all to eating habits. Breastfeeding keeps the weight on for me. I’m naturally thin and it’s likely fat to support milk production. While I was breastfeeding I could have eaten very very little and ran 10 miles a day and wouldn’t have lost a single pound. The lack of weight loss was comical. I stopped breastfeeding and overnight started to lose the weight. [/quote]
