I was the same as you - breastfeeding and just couldn't seem to lose anything!!!
It was stagnant for a long time, but the breastfeeding did start to drop off the kgs.
Before I fell pg I was 56kgs, the day I gave borth I was 98kgs (yes, I know!!! A lot of it was fluid, but still... I ate really well, and even lost weight in my 1st trimester from all of the throwing up from m/s!)
When I left the hospital, I was 73, and then was 71kgs for about 3 months after.
I did find that drinking 2Lt water a day helped me drop a lot, and I ate big bowls of steamed vegetables for lunch - except for potato & pumpkin, you can eat as much vegies as you like!!!
Having the bigger meal at lunch allowed me to serve myself a smaller meal at dinner, because I wasn't as hungry.
I also went to weight watchers when Luke was about 7 months old just to get rid of the rest.
I only got back down to 60kgs (originally I was 56), but I figured 4kgs after having a baby... I could live with that!!
If you crave something sweet at night time try some of the weight watchers frozen puddings. I've been doing weight watchers since March and have lost 10kilos just by changing the way i eat.
