“Important: Don’t start dieting right away”

Your body needs time to recover from labor and delivery first, before going on your diet after pregnancy Give yourself 6 weeks before you start watching your calorie intake and trying to slim away the post-baby weight. If you are nursing, experts highly recommend that you wait until your baby is at least 2 months, before trying to lose.

Starting a diet too soon after giving birth, can delay your recovery and make you feel a lot more tired than normal. And you need all the energy you can to adjust your life with your new bundle of joy.

“Warning: Due to the influence of pregnancy hormones, she could either burst into tears or kill you in the next 5 minutes. So watch carefully on what you say or do…
Even if you have to pretend to love her.
And sleep with one eye open.”

My sister had her baby last week, and she was wanting me to ask you, Jessica or Brittany, if you might know some information about losing weight after pregnancy. She isn’t feeling confident at all right now.

“Embrace exercising”

Just to let you know, there is absolutely no magic pill that actually helps you lose weight as well as a combination of a healthy diet regular exercise after pregnancy. That is the most best way to lose the pounds, and keep them off. It is very important to workout while trying to lose weight to ensure you’re losing the fat instead of muscle. Whenever you are ready to lose weight, first start by eating a little bit less than normal, and become more active.. Even if you are just taking a quick walk around the block with your baby stroller.

“Exercising ideas”

Finding the time to fit exercises into your daily routine can be pretty tricky after pregnancy. But it’s not impossible, as long as you start making it a priority. You can start by doing some gentle exercises, such as walking, pelvic floor exercises, and stretching. However, you should really wait 6 weeks before doing more challenging workouts. You could also exercise with your baby, by taking him/her for walks in the stroller, or by trying exercise classes. Group classes are an amazing way to meet other new mothers, and the fresh air may also make your mood a lot better.

“But I’m a Radiologist…”

I don’t know much about this… But what I do know is that this post will be really helpful for many women who are struggling to lose some pounds after pregnancy, and will soon feel confident again. But keep in mind that some women may not be able to turn back to what they looked like before. But for some women, they may turn out even better after pregnancy, by getting a softer belly, slightly wider hips, and little bit of a bigger waistline. All of you women have to set and adjust your goals.

“Take your time losing the weight”

Do not go on a strict, restrictive diet after pregnancy. Mostly all women need a minimum of 1200 calories per day to keep themselves as healthy as possible. But some woman may need more than that, somewhere between 1500 and 2200 calories per day to prevent their mood swings and keep up their energy. If you are nursing, you might want to consider a minimum of 1800 calories per day, although most nursing mothers need more like 2000 to 2700 calories per day to nourish themselves and their newborn.


“Eat up! But take your time..”

It can be hard to find the time to do things while having a newborn and a new schedule, but it is important to know that skipping meals can make energy levels go down, and that will not help you lose any weight after pregnancy. Do not skip meals in attempt to lose weight, that won’t help – you will be more likely to eat more at other meals and you will probably start feeling a little tired and grumpy. Eating breakfast can help you from feeling hungry and tired and can give you more energy.

“I’m going on an eating disorder. I’m going to eat dis order of fries, then dis order of nuggets, followed by dis order of doughnuts.”

“Be picky about foods and drinks”

Consuming dairy products, whole grain products and low-fat milk can help you lose weight after pregnancy. Some other great choices include low-fat, and high fiber foods such as fruits and raw veggies for healthy snacks. Make fruit smoothies and veggie salsas over fish or chicken. Add shredded carrots to your sandwich, and try grilled veggies.

As a matter of fact, including some fat in each meal will keep you from overeating and help you stay full. You should also be drinking about 8 or 9 cups of fluids every day, but watch what you drink. Cut back on juice, coffee, and soda.
