breastfeeding does help in losing weight but you should not actively try to lose weight as you need to consume an extra 500 calories a day just to keep a good milk supply. they say 9 months to put it, 9 months to lose it. losing weight too quickly after birth can be very bad for you and could be bad for your milk supply. healthy weight loss is 1-2lbs a week
