My wife lost it all just by returning to her old eating habits, nothing more. She was mad that everyone made it out to sound like a big deal. I think media hypes that sort of thing.
Eating good while breast feeding seems to be important though, I'd listen to my body during that time and eat when hungry and not skimp, since ultimately you'll be feeding your baby a high-fat mega-shake all day long. I made sure to give my wife everything I ate and more, none of that eating cereal for dinner crap
Once that's over, at least in my experience, you'll be exhausted from then on to infinity, and it will be easy to eat less, cook less, and stay busy. Eating is always the key to weight loss, as long as you're not an over-eater (quanitity/calorie) in denial you'll probably laugh at how it wasn't an issue.
