I'm going to sound mega wacko, but I need to put this out. I am cutting calories, but I know I need to stay around 1800/day to continue nursing. The problem is...I have not been eating enough calories, I am only averaging around 1300 give or take. I'm not hungry, and I am eating good food, so it doesn't seem to be a problem. So far my milk supply has been good, so that's not an issue. And I am exercising six days a week and dropping weight.

So what's the issue? I am in a mess because I am looking at eating 1564 calories today if I eat what I am planning for dinner. Still below 1800 where I should be, but I am a mess over the thought of it. I keep thinking about what I should cut off of my dinner.

I really need someone to whack me in the head and tell me to calm down. I feel like I am starting to get neurotic, and I don't want to go down a bad path.

calm down!!

You just had a baby, and that should be your priority! that baby needs the nutrition you're eating, not just you. So you really do need to eat those calories.

You may also be having a lot of hormonal fluctuations, which might make you feel a little loopy!!
