>Yet I have also known moms who drop weight like crazy without even

Me too and have heard this as another excuse to quit breastfeeding: "I was 
losing too much weight!" similar to the "nursing is too draining" idea 
discussed here a while ago.

Some moms have told me they couldn't lose weight while nursing but dropped 
10 lbs as soon as they weaned.

It didn't work for me, of course, because I am overweight and would have 
LOVED to have lost weight while nursing!
