if you keep b___stfeeding, you will lose 500 calories a day, thus helping you lose the weight. also, b___stfeeding or pumping your milk helps tone the tummy and uterus - it causes painless/dull pain in the abdomen.

That is true. Breastfeeding burns 500 calories a day and sometimes up to 750 if your baby eats quite a bit. My dr. says if I want to lose weight, I should cut down on fat, not calories since I am b___stfeeding. Breastmilk needs an ample amount of fat in it to give to your baby, and if you are not eating a lot of fat your body will use what fat you have stored to give to your baby instead. That is why we store fat when we are pregnant (and to protect the baby during pregnancy).
