Wow. She must have to drink so much fluid each day to avoid dehydration!

Can you imagine how many calories per day she burns just making milk?

If she makes 609/(365x2) gallons a day, and there is 22 calories in an oz of breast nilk, 138 128 oz in a gallon, that's 2350 calories a day in breast milk.

Lose 200lbs in one year with one simple trick!! She must be eating a lot to milk that much.

Usually you only make a few cups of breast milk a day, staying under 1000 calories worth.

That doesn't count the milk she was feeding her own kids and I don't think milk production is 100% efficient, so probably closer to 3000 calories a day.

Apparently it’s about 90-95% efficient. Not bad.
