Default low carb and breastfeeding

hi

im new to this so apologies if im asking a question thats already been asked, or if im posting in the wrong area.

i need some advice please. im currently breastfeeding my 14 month old little girl, with a view to stopping in the next few weeks or so. i have managed to cut feeding down to one at bedtime over the past two weeks. I have started atkins induction on 25 of march this year and have stuck to the diet rigidly. during these two weeks i havent lost a single pound

im so confused and im at my wits end. i havent cheated once, im drinking plenty of water, and im feeling really good to be honest, apart from not losing weight im just wondering if its the breastfeeding hormones preventing weight loss?

i am four stone overweight so i have a significant amount to lose, i just dont know where im going wrong. im literally eating eggs, fish, chicken, salad veg and cooked veg. i have a coffee with cream in the morning and use organic butter on everything.

any advice or similar experiences would be very much appreciated.

Welcome

There is a parenting sub-forum here http://forum.lowcarber.org/forumdisplay.php?f=95
Not active but read back through the appropriate threads.


Also is great to start at the "introduce yourself" forum http://forum.lowcarber.org/forumdisplay.php?f=37

Which Atkins book are you following? Some of the things you listed have limits. This is a good induction plan: http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthread.php?t=236482

All the best,
