daughter 'too heavy' - cutting out breastfeeds..?

Advice needed....!

My health visitor tells me that my daughter has been putting on weight a bit too quickly (she is now 19 pounds/9 kilos at 6 months), and says that it would be best to gradually cut out the breastfeeds after her main meals (b'fast/lunch/tea) (but continue the early morning/late evening feeds).
I'm confused though: isn't she supposed to drink approx. a pint's worth of milk a day..?

Has any of you had any experience with his?

No direct experience of this and can't remember off hand how I managed the process with ds but think that at that stage he only had b/feeds morning and night and one bottle in the middle of the day. I did do Gina by the letter (almost) though and followed whatever she recommended at that stage.
