[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have three kids and was never overweight. In my humble experience, the weight has to be lost within the first year or it “sticks”. The easiest way to do this is breastfeeding and eating moderately healthy. The most painful way to lose baby weight is 1. to get accustomed to the amount you get to eat while breastfeeding and 3. get depressed about the 20 extra pounds that won’t disappear until you 3. eat less and lose the weight.[/quote] The easiest way for some women to lose the weight postpartum is to breastfeed. For me, and many other women I know, it was to stop breastfeeding. Once I weaned, the weight fell off within two weeks. Bodies respond differently to the hormones of pregnancy and breastfeeding.
