What safe effectfive and costless diet will help me lose the extra baby weight?

Answer 1

That weight will drop off easily. Try to stay away from a really strict diet, just eat as healthy as you realistically can and normal cardio. Give yourself at least 6 mos to 2 years to get back to normal.

Answer 2

Winter's almost here, Oatmeal, is filling, and excellent. Drink lots of water, Buy apples, eat two or more a day. They're filling and satisfying. Careful what you eat, as in the amount . Eat nomal, but don't drink anything but water for 1 month and you should lose 20 lbs. I did it a while back , for two weeks, and lost 10, I have to try it for a month next time and see If I can do it. Also, does baby have a nice buggy ? Even one not so nice ? Take the baby, walk as far and as long as you can. You won't have to feel guilty, it's soooo good for both of you. Good Luck, you can do it. :)

Answer 3

I can give you a list of things I did to lose weight! I lost 54 lbs! You can see my before and after pic here http://www.healthandstrength.net

This is what I did:

1. NEVER EVER ate sugar. It's a poison that makes us older, sicker, fatter and tired...all things we dont want. Seriously, sugar is the one who does the dirty work in weight gain. Stop eating it all together. You can see my list of ingredients to avoid when shopping here http://www.healthandstrength.net/qofweeka.htm...
2. Drink ALOT of water. 2-3 liters a day. The more the merrier! We need about half our body weight in ounces JUST for regular body functions! When you feel thirsty, that means you are already dehydrated and lose brain function. Water flushes toxins from your fat cells and keeps you younger.
3. Exercise!!! So very important. Here http://www.healthandstrength.net/abexe.htm... are my favorite ab exercises. I also do cardio 4-5 days a week for about 30 minutes a time.
4. Eat less. How many calories do you think is in that burger or that plate of fries or in that handful of chips. What about overfilling our plates? If you go here http://www.healthandstrength.net/qofweek.htm... I wrote something about saving on calories and losing weight.
5. Go to sleep before 10pm. Your body starts repairing and rebuilding and speeding up weight loss while you sleep only if you sleep at about 10pm. If you are awake and go to bed at 12, you miss out on that very important time. I have a good article on my site here http://www.healthandstrength.net/qofweekb.htm that talks about the importance of sleep and how STRESS can make actually make you fatter.
6. BE POSITIVE. Be thankful every day and love yourself
7. BE CONSISTANT! That I think is the KEY to losing weight. So what if you went a week and only lost a pound...or didnt lose any...KEEP going. DON'T stop. This is a lifelong commitment, so stick to it and one day you will open your eyes and need a new wardrobe!
8. Eat more veggies and skinny friendly foods. I have my list of my top ten foods that I ate to lost weight here http://www.healthandstrength.net/tenfoods.htm...
80% veggies at every meal including breakfast will keep you young and help you lose weight.
9. Do the little things that count! Check out 10 cool ideas that you can do to help boost your calorie burn throught the day here: http://www.healthandstrength.net/tips.htm
Good luck and don't forget that YOU are the only one who decides what foods enter your body and how long you sit around. Make the change, take the chance and give yourself time! You can do it. I know you can!

Answer 4

Breastfeeding, drinking lots of water when you feel like snacking, and take a walk every chance you get. Don't forget the fruits and veggies in your regular meals.

Remember, it took 9 months to put on the weight, give yourself 9 months to fit back in your jeans! Congrats, and good luck!

Answer 5

Eliminate processed food and sugared drinks. I did this after my daughter and lost 20 lbs very quickly. No margarine, use real butter. Don't eat fast food unless it is Subway and you choose one of the subs under 7 grams of fat. Eliminating soda from my diet was a big one for me. Also, fruit juices have a lot of carbs. Eat real fruit instead. It fills you up and is better for you.

Answer 6

Drink plenty of water. watch your calorie intake. Exercise at least once a day for at least 1 hour. get your heart rate to your target heart rate for at least 45 minutes strait. get at least 8 hours of sleep( i know new baby I'm crazy for saying that) and if you can break your meals into 5 small meals a day( that boosts your metabolism) good luck and if your Brest feeding remember that you need more calories than normal.

Good luck and congrats on the baby:)

Answer 7

Bottom line: eat healthy and exercise. If your total caloric intake is less than your caloric expenditure you will lose weight. Your body has the capability to store the extra calories as fat REGARDLESS of where they come from. Protein, carbohydrates or fats......if you eat more calories than you burn in a 24 hour period, it will be stored as fat.
