Tasha G asked:

I am a stay at home mom with 2 boys. My youngest is 5 months old and I’ve gained a lot of weight after having them close together. I would like to start to lose weight but I am afraid that exercising would cause my milk supply to go down since I am breastfeeding. Is this true and what types of exercises can I do since I can’t make it to a gym.

DoveyBuzzy asked:

I had my baby 6 months ago and I have lost all my pregnancy weight plus 10 additional pounds. Before I was pregnant, I tried everythign to lose weight and couldnt lose a pound. Now I have lost all this weight and am at the ideal weight. Is this normal while breastfeeding or is this too much? My family says I’m withering away but I love it and feel great. I eat very well and always have an appetite yet I keep losing weight.

Baby #2 Due 8/9/9 asked:

I am exercising and eating better (water, salads etc..) but I am actually gaining weight now! (like a pound every 2 weeks!) I am 7 lbs over my pre-pregnancy weight and used to always be petite. Did anyone do something special to lose weight? (other than breastfeeding) Is this normal because it has only been 2 months since I had my son? Any similiar experiences?

camryangel33 asked:

My son is 18 months almost and I’ve yet to lose any weight since leaving the hospital after a c-section. Can you please give me some plans/ideas that I can do to lose around 40 pounds. Most of this weight is still in my belly, so also, i know losing weight alone isn’t going to make it smaller again. HOw much time should i spend working out in a gym and in what ways?

Do you think there is a correlation between postpartum hair loss and weight loss?

Momma Mia! asked:

I had a baby 4.5 months ago and am exclusively breastfeeding. Just recently my hair began to fall out big time and my weight has also been coming off more easily. I realize that the hair loss is normal, but I’m wondering if there is a correlation between the two. Perhaps the hair loss signals that the pregnancy hormones are out of our system which in turn lets our bodies know that we don’t need the weight anymore. What do you think?
