Answer 3

I had lost 30 lbs by the time I weaned my son. I was left with 7 pounds. those last few pounds are stubborn!

It really depends on the person though..

Answer 4

Depends on your metabolism. Breastfeeding helped me lose my weight, but It didn't do anything for a friend of mine, and my sister-in-law also gave up breastfeeding because of weight issues.

Answer 5

You should give this product a shot. It's called Acai Berry and it's new on the market, but already endorsed by people like Oprah! I just ordered a free 14-day trial from this site.. do it today! you won't regret it!

Answer 6

I lost almost all my baby weight until she weaned me at 5 months, then I packed it back on and then some. When no longer breastfeeding, you can't eat like you do when you are.

Answer 7

Breastfeeding made me lose weight, but I also lost weight quickly after my son was born, and I was unable to nurse him. I'd talk to your doctor. It's so rare that you're not losing weight that it could actually be a problem with your thyroid gland or other underlying health issue that has decided to show up when you're nursing.  It certainly wouldn't hurt to ask.  

Answer 8

it can make you lose weight if you do it correctly.. its a fact that b/f makes you burn an extra 500-600 calories a day..but if you eat like a horse, you obviously arent going to lose any weight.

its proposterous to say that you ARENT losing weight because of breastfeeding
