this will make your milk lower quality and less nutritious for you body. try making protein shakes or eating avacados (high fat/cal)

anne, my appet_te has been low too. I'm very thirsty though. Maybe just pick up some snacks, like nuts, raisins - quick stuff. maybe dried fruit too (non sulfured)

I got my appet_te back after a month. I lost so much weight the first 2 weeks it was crazy. I'm reading a book called "Eat Well, Lose Weight, While Breastfeeding" and she says that if you don't eat enough nutrients it'll take it from your stored supply. It's okay here and there but if you do it for a long time you can get sick. Also, you'll lose your energy. If you can't follow a nutritious diet, at least remember to take your prenatal vitamin. That'll at least help a little. If you go too low, I think your milk will eventually dry up or you'll produce less, but I'm not sure about that. Thought I heard that somewhere.
