So does breastfeeding really help you lose weight ? I mean REALLY really ? People keep saying you only lose weight if…

for some women. i lost 20 lbs right after my son was born and was right back to pre-baby weight, (which was considered underweight). because im breastfeeding i have lost over 24 pounds and you can barely touch my side and you can feel my ribs. i eat a ton but just dont gain any.

and eating right will obviously help but isnt necessary. like i said u will have less of a appetite anyways

yes absolutely. the baby may feed more but its enough, god didnt create these boobies for nothing lol, breastfeedibmng is hard at first but dont give up, its soooo beneficial@amyrrah22

I think it depends on your metabolism. I plan on seeing if it works just worried about getting my tight belly back

@summerbaby89, see I need to educate myself more on the breastfeeding process. Is the colostrum enough for the baby

@amyrrah22,

no, u only have colostrum which is a clear liquid but its loaded with vitamins and after three days of breastfeeding u will have milk

@summerbaby89, I think I will ! Does your milk flow pretty good in the hospital ?

@amyrrah22, yeah, i mean i left the hospital looking much better, granted im not a stick thin girl.but i am amazed at how quick my stomach has shrunk so far, its slightlt painful bc it causes contractions of the uterus for the first few days but ask for motrin, you will be shocked of the difference from fully pregnant to the time u leave the hospital, my SO was like wow u instantly lost your belly ha, i have a ways to go but it rly does help

She intimidates me and I saw her through her acne awkward stage AND taught her how to use tampons 😂😂 very proud of little sis 💪🏽

@yogabump, lol a model ???! Lol no wonder 😂😂😂 she probably intimidates even the most conceited of women without even trying lol

@summerbaby89, that's what my mom said , it shrinks your uterus. I was small before having my daughter but the birth control made me blow up (also not eating right but birth control gave it a kickstart) but i would like it to be flatter as well

@amyrrah22, she has the soul of an angel, but she's also a promo model and when she walks in the room not even trying you're like HOLD UP HOLD UP I need to go put some makeup and heels on real quick 😂😂💁🏻

@yogabump, she's so pretty her stomach looks non existent I wish I could snap back like that

i have been breastfeeding for only a week and my stomach shrunk alottt already, plus my appetite is barely there, it burns calories and helps shrink your uterus, i literally feel it shrinking and get some cramps due to it getting smaller

If you want to lose your belly, do it at a pace. Loosing weight too fast for anyone can sometimes leave sagginess.

@junesmommy_15, I want to lose most of my stomach and work the rest off

Not me it didn't .. I held my weight not all of it obviously but I'm hoping this time I wil 😏

I lost all my baby weight really fast. It left me with a loose belly though.

@yogabump, only a month !!! That's what I'm talking about but I would kill to be a 4 lol I weigh 221 and that's AFTER losing a few pounds smh

@mazeyy09, yeah I am on exclusively breastfeeding I hope I can stick to it. Hope my flow comes in ok

It MELTS off. I was eating like a tubbo bfing my son and couldn't keep the weight on. I walked out of the hospital a size 4 and was down to a zero in a month

I ate right but I lost all of the weight plus another 10 in the matter of a few months.

if you plan on exclusively breastfeeding it should be the same for you too I only partially breastfeed now

@chelz_renae, ugh I feel like that'll be me

@mazeyy09, lucky you !!!!

I've been breastfeeding for 2 months and haven't seen any weight fall off lol....I'm still waiting! Haha @amyrrah22

the weight fell off of me. I was eating semi okay.
