Post pregnancy I started to gradually lose weight, but I'm still breast feeding so taking it easy. My fitness pal put me on a 1400 calories a day diet and i calculate 200 a day for breastfeeding, so I'm eating, tops, 1600 calories.
I started at 70kg (that's BMI 23 point something, on the overweight side of normal.) With an aim of 64kg. I got down to 68kg in a month, now I seem to have gone back up to 68.4kg, but I have been eating exactly 1600 calories a day the whole way through and have not eaten more.
Is 1600 a day enough to lose weight slowly?
And is the gain of 400g likely to be water? Or a plateu? I am exercising a little (yoga/swimming 3 times a week)
