I needed to check in. The last time I weighed myself was mid-May. Since then I&#8217;ve lost 3 pounds. That was nice to see. I haven&#8217;t really been doing anything differently other than trying to be &#8220;better&#8221; about the snacking and eating junk food.<\/p>\n<p>I am counting my calories and staying within my range. I only create a deficit in calories a few times a week but at least I am not going\u00a0<em>over<\/em> my calories. I changed the setting in MyFitnessPal to 1800 calories as a base last month and then this week I&#8217;ve changed it to 1700 as a base. I often eat back the calories I burn in the gym but not always. It depends on the day, my hunger level, the activity I did in the gym, and Logan. Like I&#8217;ve said in the past, breastfeeding makes me starving. I generally have a handle on it but when Logan goes through a growth spurt and wants to eat hourly&#8211;you bet my hunger increases!<\/p>\n<p>Anyways, so I am making progress. Slowly, but surely. I am going to stay at the 1700 calorie base for awhile and see how that goes. I am weary of going too low while breastfeeding so my goal is to not go below 1600 while I nurse. I kind of came to terms with the fact that I may not lose the baby weight until I stop nursing, so any loss is kind of a nice treat!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-50408\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/IMG_2282-e1468257942183-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_2282\" width=\"695\" height=\"927\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/IMG_2282-e1468257942183-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/IMG_2282-e1468257942183-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So that&#8217;s what is going on here!
