They will give you an extra 10 points a week if you are breastfeeding. Keep up your fluid intake especilly because of the warm weather and you should be ok. Good luck!

Do you guys do WW online or go to meetings? I have 20 lbs of pure baby fat to lose and I am nursing too.

I was told not to do ww until i had been breastfeeding for 8 weeks to make sure my supply was established.

i joined ww after the pregnancy but didn't keep up with it. i need to go back SOOO bad!

I went to meetings before I was preggo and I plan on going to the meetings now as well.

ETA: What about starting a get back in shape thread?? Would anyone be interested?? Then the gals who can't go to WW meetings or those who are doing something other than WW can be a part of it too. We can all support each other, what are your thoughts?

I did it and used the extra points. You should be fine if you do that.

Just judge your body..if I did any dieting my milk supply totally tanked. But other women seem to be able to fill gallons with milk and eat barely anything. So see what works for you.
