  • Well, the second baby weight is often the hardest to loose. Usually if you are breast feeding you should loose weight faster because most of the calories you are taking in, are going to the production of milk. It may very well be that your body has entered starvation mode. This mean that your system thinks that it is a time of starvation and has dropped your motabolism so that you won't die. This is from when we were nomads and had times of the year that we could not get enough food.

    If you are breast feeding, you should not go on any diets. You should watch your carb intake and spend plenty of time walking with baby. (I know that is silly, how do you walk with a baby that refuses to stay put and won't or can't walk with you!) Just qouting the ole Doc Spock! Gnarf

    Good luck and you will be back to your hotmamma mode before you know it.
