Calories while breastfeeding

[GirlyNYmama]

Hello everyone, I had a baby 2 months ago (my third). I've been following LBC/MMT for several months. I'm having a hard time figuring out how much I should be eating while breastfeeding. I weigh around 150 and have been eating 1800-2000 calories a day & have lost all my baby weight & am getting quite toned :-). I'm finding, however, that come evening time I am ravenous with hunger. It's not norma "oh I'm slightly hungry" kind of hunger...it's more like "don't get your hand near my mouth because I might eat it" type of hunger. Should I be eating some more calories? Or am I on track? When I tell people I eat 2000 a day, they just about fall over because it sounds like so much.

Thank you in advance for your help!

you;re breastfeeding, you should be eating at maintenance. There is plenty of time for deficits when done.
