Losing weight while breastfeeding

Anything I need to watch out for? Is there a minimum calorie need?
Baby is seven months, so eating some real food too.
I have a wedding to go to in mid May and would like to have shed a bit for that.
Any advice gratefully received.
Oh exercise is a bit of a funny one as my pelvis is still a bit wobbly or not strong or something. Scares the life out of me.

Walk literally everywhere with the pram as support helps too.

Oh lovelyivy I’m sorry, I had a quick look for similar threads & couldn’t see one.
I worked out my tdee for breastfeeding the other day, which was quite high, so I think I could cut down calories a good bit without a problem.

You’re both right though, I think I need to just bite the bullet & start doing some exercise.
