how to reduce weight while breast feeding without taking any pills or excersise?

Answer 1

go on a diet

Answer 2

actually, i don't think you're doing yourself any favours by trying to lose weight while breastfeeding. your body is putting a lot of of energy and nutrients into producing milk, so by dieting you'd really risk doing it damage, or at least feel like **** until either the diet or the breastfeeding gives. eat light and healthy, a balanced diet with lots of fruit, veg, complex carbs and high value proteins like you find in red meat, soy products or fish. aim not to put on weight, don't aim to lose any. the likelyhood is that between a healthy diet and the effort your body is putting in right now, the weight will tumble off anyway. congrats on the little one, btw! and - and then i'll shut my big mouth - why try to be back to model looks just a few weeks or months after giving birth? personally i don't think the celebrities who allegedly manage that are good role models. there is nothing wrong with looking like a young mother if you think about it, why not be proud of your achievement and flaunt it?

Answer 3

Your still breast feeding so you have time to lose weight. Go for walks and do some light yoga just to keep everything pliable. See your doctor before you really get into an exercise regime. Congratulations.

Answer 4

I don't understand it but I always lost weight while breast feeding. Good luck to you and for your baby's sake, DO NOT RESORT TO TAKING ANY DIET PILLS.

Answer 5

Breast feeding actually helps you lose weight. I don't know why, but my wife's doctor told her that. It worked. Just keep breastfeeding.

Answer 6

I have lost around 60 lbs in 6 months and I will tell you what not to eat. The first myth we have been told is that fat is bad. Sugar and carbohydrate are the big nasties. In fact, reduced fat food that has had some of the fat removed is actually more fattening than the regular food because the removed fat in most cases has been replaced with carbs! This is the main reason why you must absolutely stay away from ALL processed food with no exception. Eat fresh and natural. You must have 3 meals a day and get into a routine so your body knows when to expect food. Your body is capable of doing exquisite things to avoid weight loss if it thinks it’s going to get starved, so you must feed it and regularly.

The other thing you must do is keep your insulin as low as possible by getting sugar and carbs in your diet as close to zero as you can and not having ANYTHING between meals except water. Also having at least 5 hours between one meal and another. The last meal of the day must be no later than 9pm. Insulin is a hormone that will absolutely block fat and protein burning in your body and force it to burn sugar, that's how it works. You will NOT lose weight with your blood stream flooded with insulin, even with exercise. It’s impossible. You must have at least 8 glasses of water a day in order for your liver and kidneys to excrete the fat from your body this is crucial.

Now, what you must stay away from and I mean, non at all. Bread, pasta, rice, pastry, flour of any kind, sugar, potato, onion, parsnip, sweet potato, pumpkin, beetroot, carrots, peas, beans, beer, sweet wine, spirits, spreads like butter and margarine and be very careful of sauces and condiments. Fruit and milk should be taken very, very sparingly because they are fattening. Fruit is full of sugar too, only a very small amount. Avoid all processed food including diet soda it will stimulate insulin. 3 cups of black tea or coffee WITH meals a day is OK. Use Stevia for a sweetener.

OK, if you are still with me, what can you eat? In a nutshell you replace the carbs you have removed with protein and green leafy vegetables. Do not mix protein only 1 per meal. This is what you can eat. Lean meat, poultry, fish, cheese, yoghurt and eggs are your permitted proteins. Cauliflower, cabbage, sprouts, broccoli, capsicum, mushroom, celery, zucchini and a small amount of tomato. You can have unlimited amounts of lettuce and cucumber but ONLY at meal times. You can use balsamic vinegar as a dressing; mustard is ok too but only made from the powder. Shop bought is full of sugar! Curry powder in cooking can be used as well. One tablespoon of olive oil is ok per day, in cooking and as a dressing. Garlic is OK but not shop bought; you guessed it, full of sugar. Use fresh.

I will GUARANTEE if you stick to this you will loose heaps of weight, fast. I know it's not easy and you need the support of your family too.

Just another couple of things I forgot. NO breakfast cereal and avoid really heavy exercise you will just burn glycogen in your muscles, not fat and it will just make you sore and tired. You need prolonged gentle exercise to burn fat like walking. You don't need to exercise at all on this diet as long as you're moving about. Last but not least read food labels and look at the ingredients. Avoid foods like the plague with more than 5 grams of carbohydrate per 100 grams. If you like a drink, Semillon Sauvignon Blanc (very dry and low in carbs) with a little soda water is OK with meals.

Good Luck. Jules, lecturer. Australia.
