Re: Did lose or gain weight when you stopped bfing?
Gained. But it was only like 5lbs and I was happy to put weight back on. I was way too skinny. But I also worked out a lot while bf so that's probably part of the reason I lost so much.

Lost! You have limit your activity and protein while BF so for me I finally lost those last few pounds and actually started to put muscle back on.
me too. I lost a good bit right after dd but then my body held onto a reserve until I weaned.

The more I cut back on BFing, the more I lost. I was one of those people who held on to the last 10lbs while BFing.
Same for me. I am weaning and finally losing more weight. I am not as hungry and overall it is easier to diet!

Neither. I weaned pretty slowly and haven't really had any change in weight since stopping. I would love to lose a few more pounds and tighten my stomach but I guess I actually have to put some effort in to do that!

Re: Did lose or gain weight when you stopped bfing?
Right now I am bfing and am 20 pounds overweight. However, I fit into clothes as if I was only 10 lbs overweight. I bet I need to lose 10 and the other 10 will come off when I wean. My Obgyn nurse said you hold onto 10 pounds. It seems obvious, though, that everyone is different.

Re: Did lose or gain weight when you stopped bfing?
I lost the last couple of baby weight pounds soon after I stopped, but then suddenly started gaining a couple of months later. I had to be really careful about what I ate after.

I've lost most of my pregnancy weight bf'ing, but I'd guesstimate that I have about another 10 lbs to go.
Makes me super nervous to hear about all those that have gained once they stop.
me too! I lost all the pregnancy weight within a week of giving birth & definitely credit bf-ing with helping with that. I think once I stop, I'm really going to have to hit the gym & watch my diet to prevent weight gain.

Re: Did lose or gain weight when you stopped bfing?
Lost very quickly the last few pounds.
I had morning sickness during both my entire pregnancies so I did not gain much (~20 lbs). When I gave birth, I immediately lost about 10 lbs. I did not lose the last 5-10 lbs until after I stopped BFing. I had a ravenous appetite while BFing. I ate multiple meals a day (half healthy and half junk), ate tons of snacks and drank a million calories. I was constantly hungry and thirsty.
I am sure if I was drinking water only and ate healthy the entire time I was BF, I would have lost weight a lot quicker. I definitely think my face gained weight AFTER I gave birth.
