Delivered 3 months back and still struggling with the extra weight, kuch bhi fit nahi ho raha. Im breastfeeding so cant do crash diet. How did u all lose it after baby? pls share.
Lose weight? Meri toh abhi se himmat toot rahi hai, haan! I just finished a full plate of biryani! 😂 Jokes apart, I hear it's a slow and steady process. Just eating healthy and light exercises after delivery seems to be the way. Also, sleeping whenever baby sleeps, that burns calories from all the stress I think!
Honestly, as a working mom, time is a luxury. I focused on eating home-cooked, healthy food and getting in whatever small walks I could, like during my lunch breaks. Breastfeeding helped too. Don't expect dramatic results overnight; consistency with small, sustainable changes is what works in the long run.
The most important thing is to give your body time to heal. Start with short walks once your doctor gives the go-ahead, maybe after 6 weeks for normal delivery or later for C-section. Focus on nutrient-dense foods, stay hydrated, and try to get as much rest as possible. It's a marathon, not a sprint, for your body to return to its state.
Oh, this is such an important question! I'm still pregnant but already thinking about this. Everyone says breastfeeding helps, but what else works without feeling too exhausted? I really want to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight, but not sure how practical it will be.
Losing pregnancy weight takes time, don't rush it. The key is a balanced diet, lots of hydration, and gentle walks once your doctor clears you. Breastfeeding does help a lot, and remember, your body just did an amazing thing. Be patient and kind to yourself.
