Phase II and Breastfeeding
2

I just had a baby 01-11-06 and am now stuck with the left over weight that I gained during pregnancy. I have always lost weight(prior to the baby) by doing the Atkins Diet. I am great at just completely eliminating carbs and dropping weight very quickly. I know it's not the healthy way to do it but I was never really concerned about the health aspect only the results. Now, I am breastfeeding my baby and the doctor said that I can't do Atkins but I can do Phase II of the South Beach Diet. I just need to make sure that I am getting plenty of good carbs so that I don't decrease my milk supply. I was just wondering if anyone else has done this while BFing or if anyone knows anything about this. I would appreciate any feed back. Thanks in advance.
