Is achieving body recomposition possible while breastfeeding? This was the topic I sat down to discuss with Dr. Shannon on her podcast ‘The Dr. Shannon Show’, and now I am bringing it to you. 

We discussed all things nutrition for breastfeeding and achieving body recomposition, including calories and macros to try to hit while you’re breastfeeding, the hormonal changes that happen while you’re breastfeeding that can affect your appetite, and what you should focus on during the postpartum stage. 

Tune in to learn how to navigate your postpartum nutrition while prioritizing recovery and bonding with your baby!

Topics covered on body recomposition while breastfeeding:

• How hormones like prolactin, ghrelin, and leptin significantly influence your hunger cues and fullness signals during breastfeeding
