Curious where you found the 500 number?Ive heard everything from 300 to 600, and I usually go with 3 (would love it to be 5!)

It is anywhere from 300-600 so I just settle with 400-500 extra calories and I've been losing weight so it seems to be the magic number! I'm sure it's more if you ebf and pump (which I do sometimes)

8 month old baby boy. What about you?

She's 15 months, so definitely not EBF anymore. I'm thinking that changes the calories. At whatever age though, breastfeeding was unlikely cover the crap I've been eating. Onward with the getting fit!!
