[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just as an FYI you're not "eating for two." You only need about an extra 450 calories when nursing. If you eat a handful of nuts, and drink a glass of water each time you nurse, you'll get the calories.[/quote]

I don’t think this is accurate. If so, why am I starving all of the time? I’m eating like 3500-4000 calories a day. Double portions and frequent snacking. [/quote]

Go to the doctor and tell them this. Something is off.[/quote]

I don’t know how it turned into my eating habits but my doctor said that it’s completely fine and normal. I don’t know how much I’m eating but it feels like 3500+ calories.

What are you eating.

Your DH’s comment was insensitive and rude. [/quote]

Here is a breakdown of my day of eating. Times vary.

6:30am - First thing wake up I drink 16oz water and eat a protein bar.

8am: I eat 2 eggs, 1/2 avocado, and about 1 cup of fruit. I drink another 16oz of water in between this.

10:30am - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt with 1 cup berries and 1/3 cup granola.

1pm: I switch between a chicken cesear wrap or pb&j.  More fruit on the side.

3:30pm: Hummus and veggies and cheese.

6:30pm: A hefty serving of portion with veggies and carbs.

9pm: homemade trail mix

4am: Protein shake or another protein bar.

I drink water throughout the day and aim for a gallon.

I have a big supply and make 40-50oz a day. [/quote]

Yeah, I'd cut out the protein bars/shakes. Look at the times - you're eating at 4am and 6:30am. Then eating a meal two hours later. Then the yogurt meal two hours after that. I can't see how you can be losing weight on this meal plan, OP. [/quote]

Don’t listen. This is very normal eating 2 weeks postpartum and breastfeeding. You’re healing and need the nutrients.
