Nursing & Calories!!

7lbs is not bad! That is great! You are close to your pre-pregnancy weight still... & you are right, it is so worth it. I keep telling myself that too. I had to cut the carbs ...the nasty carbs I was so addicted to while prego! I eat a lot of salad, when I can, and lunch meat. I stop when I am satisified. Things I forgot to do while prego- I ate like a pig and I was scared I "ruined" my pouch. Thankfully not. I think that your weight gain can be hormones also. For me, with my first two babies, I had just as much hormones breastfeeding as I did while pregnant. Hang in there! It will be okay! & congrats on the little one!!
