Fasting while breastfeeding

[Highlove]

Just wondered if anyone had done this, how they'd got on and if they'd tweaked their diet accordingly? And how has it worked out, in terms of how tough it's been and weight loss?

If it's relevant, DC2 is approaching six months, so supply well established. We've not started weaning yet so she's fully BF still. I'm about two stone over what I'd like to be, a good stone or so over having a BMI of 25.

Interested to hear others' experiences.

Doing 5:2 and breastfeeding at moment. Having 600 cals instead of 500, but my baby is 11 months now and therefore supply is well established and is less essential. Planning on stopping breastfeeding in a couple of months but just can't bear being this weight any longer (and 5:2 always worked in past).
