HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT AFTER A C-SECTION






Hello beautiful moms! I'm so happy to male this post after doing so much research on pregnancy and trying to understand what mothers go through after delivery of their baby, especially when it was a C-section. It can really be daunting for a mother who after going through a 9-month pregnancy period and you still can not bounce back almost immediately. Trust me moms, you need to take your eyes off the T.V so you don't get distracted by what you see the celebrities do and pose. It's not magic but a gradual process that you must take one step at a time so you don't hurt yourself or cause permanent damage. So what do you do then to bounce back fast? read further below.....

1. Work-out but do very simple ones


For a woman who just had a c-section, you might want to take it easy with the exercise. Yes! you should. You could engage your body by taking morning walks because walks have been proven to reduce blood clot which is really great for you but you might want to consult your doctor first. Consulting your doctor will really help you know when you hit the road or just sit home and take care of yourself a bit. Aside walking, you could also have a bit of bonding time with your baby by doing Pilates. This is really good fro your muscles and back but its nothing serious. 

2. Eat healthy...as in really eat healthy

Okay...you might say yes yes yes you heard a million and one times but trust me, you never can hear a enough of this. You really have to eat healthy!. Let me ask you this...did you really eat your food during your pregnancy or you were really craving junk foods? Its been reported many times that as much as pregnant women crave junk food during pregnancy, they really need to avoid it because it becomes really difficult to shed the weight after the delivery of the baby. Now for a woman who had c-section, what do you expect? So I ask again, were you really eating your food when you were pregnant?  When I said you should really eat your food, I meant you need to consume every nutrient. Now for someone in your condition, the best way to lose weight without anymore damage to your body is to start juicing your meals. Juicing helps you get every nutrient out of your food. 

To start juicing, i suggest you start using greens with a mild taste like spinach or spring greens. The fruits you use will easily mask their flavor, making for a tasty, refreshing drink. Experiment with water quantities to find your consistency. The more water you use, the thinner your juice, and vice versa. For this juice, use whole unprocessed foods to get the best results.  Let me share you some recipes I've tried myself that are very delicious and effective (PS. I'm not a mom but I love healthy life). Try this cleansing recipes that are tried and tested. 

Toxin cleansing blast:
1-2 handfuls of rinsed spinach
1 cored pear
1 banana
1 cored apple
1 cup of pineapple
Water
Direction: Dice all ingredients into a blender and blend for 30 seconds, voila! your juice is ready.  I highly recommend the NutriBullet Blender for this purpose. This blender really blends your food completely and your body get to absorb it completely in the best way possible without stressing your digestive system. 

3. Breastfeed your baby regularly
 Another best way to lose weight just after your c-section is by regularly breastfeeding your baby. By doing this, you won't only be bonding with your child but you will definitely shed the weight in the process. Breastfeeding has been proven to help women burn calories. So while you're thinking of bouncing to the gym almost immediately after delivery, you might to just take it so slow and do it the natural but fast way as well. Mothers, please completely avoid pills. They have bad effects on you.
