Maintenance Calories vs Current Weight

Formule

## Postpartum Calorie Needs This uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation (female version) plus nursing calories. ### Formula **BMR = 10 x Weight(kg) + 6.25 x Height(cm) - 5 x Age - 161** **Maintenance = BMR x Activity Factor + Nursing Calories** A gentle deficit of 250 calories/day supports gradual weight loss of about 0.5 lbs per week. Never go below 1,800 kcal while breastfeeding.

Exemple Résolu

A 30-year-old, 155 lb, 65-inch tall postpartum woman, lightly active, exclusively breastfeeding.

  1. 01Weight = 70.3 kg, Height = 165.1 cm
  2. 02BMR = 10(70.3) + 6.25(165.1) - 5(30) - 161 = 1,384
  3. 03Maintenance = 1,384 x 1.3 + 500 = 2,299 kcal
  4. 04Gentle loss = 2,299 - 250 = 2,049 kcal

Questions Fréquentes

When can I start losing weight after pregnancy?

Most healthcare providers recommend waiting at least 6 weeks postpartum before actively trying to lose weight. Focus on nutrition and recovery first.

How fast should I lose weight postpartum?

A safe rate is 1-2 lbs per week for non-nursing mothers, and 0.5-1 lb per week while breastfeeding to maintain milk supply.

Why is the minimum 1,800 calories while breastfeeding?

Eating below 1,800 calories while nursing can reduce milk supply and may not provide adequate nutrition for recovery and milk production.
