I run 2 miles in the morning and evening 5 times a week and I cant even lose freakn pound. It makes me so frustrated and depressed that

I cant stop eating because Im breastfeeding. I used to be able to drop 10 lbs a week just by cutting down to salads and tuna, now I resent everything that goes into my mouth because I know its just gonna stick to my ever growing and disgusting butt.

I went through something similar a few years ago, I was actually gaining weight when I should have been losing - turns out I had an inactive thyroid - get your thyroid levels checked if you haven't recently. Between running that much and nursing, which is a calorie furnace in itself, I would think that you would be seeing some results, maybe you are losing inches and it just isn't registering on the scale yet?? It's hard to say because our hormones and bodies are so out of wack after we have a baby, I am sure that everything is still trying to get back to "normal." I would definitely mention it to your doctor though as I am sure they have more insight. Good luck!!
