Advised not to opt for weight loss supplements/ med during lactation period.
Take home cooked meals comprising all nutrients macros and micros. Take good fats, carbs n protein. Limit all processed preserved packaged and outside food completely. Stop hard drinks and smoking if any. Take good water intake of atleast 3-4 lit a day.
Alongwith the dietary changes, lifestyle modifications must be done like Physical activity for atleast 1 hour, time discipline should be fixed for all meals and other activities. Try getting sleep for 6-8 hrs min.

As you are breastfeeding mother weightloss medicine can't be added to you
We can just plan your diet in portion and add little workout to start your weight loss
In intial stage it will be slow after that it can increase
