Doudou - thank goodness I thought it was just me! My shape changed when I stopped BF with DD1, was quite amazing (thank goodness).

I also found it easier to control what I ate when I wasn't too tired and was motivated. To avoid temptation I just don't buy stuff like chocolate etc and I have to be really honest with myself about what I do eat. I found with DD1 I was snacking when she ate and then eating my dinner too - so that was a trap.

I now stick to a smaller plate and half full of vege, 1/4 carbs and 1/4 protein. Dessert (small) every 3rd night or so - if I go too full on I go completely off the rails. Also try to walk morning and night for 30mins or so.

Good luck - it is hard work but you will feel better for it.
