410. Q&A: Can You Lose Weight While Breastfeeding Without Hurting Your Milk Supply?

from Hot, Healthy, Never Hungry · host Lauren Hubert MS, Registered Dietitian

Can you lose weight while breastfeeding without hurting your milk supply? On today's episode, I'm answering a question from a listener named Rachel about how to approach fat loss while breastfeeding without compromising her milk supply. One of the biggest concerns I hear from postpartum women is whether they have to choose between reaching their weight loss goals and continuing their breastfeeding journey. After going through this myself and coaching many women through this season of life, I've seen that the answer is often much more nuanced than people expect. In this episode, I'm sharing my own experience with nursing and postpartum fat loss, along with the story of a client who was able to lose 10 pounds while maintaining her milk supply. We'll also talk through the biggest things I want you to focus on, from calories and exercise to carbohydrates, timing, and what I want every new mom to consider before jumping into a fat loss phase.
