Induction and Breastfeeding

[arodri04]

Hi everyone, i am sahm with a toddler and a baby and i'm breastfeeding both. Last week in a desperate attempt to shed off some pounds i started Atkins, the induction phase. I didn't realize that i cannot do that b/c it will jeoperdize the quality of breastmilk. Honestly i dont own a book, i lost my old one, so this maintenance phase, how many carbs does it allow. I have been on induction for 6 days and lost 9lbs, but today i did more research and saw that it is not best to do this. How can i figure a safe carb count so that i keep losing weight slowly.

Re: Induction and Breastfeeding

since by breast feeding you are giving the babies cals every time you should be able to do say a maintnenace Atkins and shed weight too. ifthat rate of loss is too slow for you then you can do premaintnenave levels too.
Congrats on the neew baby.
