I’m with you on needing to keep weight on, Mayo and Lindsey. I use protein powder in oatmeal or I eat eggs/greens with higher protein sprouted grain toast and avocado or olive oil after M/BODY workouts. I also limit my workout to 30-45 min most days. I try to do 60 min once a week max. I also use a variety of seeds - soaked in hot water or warm soy milk with oatmeal - chia, flax, hemp. I snack on nuts, seeds, dark chocolate, fruits between meals. Nut butters in smoothies or with fruit too. I do mostly plant based except for eggs and fish - I aim for 20-30 gm protein with each meal. I also try to eat three meals and 2 to 3 snacks every day. I’ve managed to maintain a strong, healthy body with these steps. And, like Lindsey said, lactation brings a whole other level of energy and fat needs. I’d recommend talking to a dietician if you are breastfeeding and losing weight. To be sure you are well nourished and able to make rich milk for your little one. Lots of love from Texas!
