It is said that obesity is the natural enemy of women, but when becoming a mother, one can spend most of their time and energy on raising babies. It is said that babies who are breastfed can grow smarter and healthier, but it can also make many women overweight. One of their concerns is whether breastfeeding can lead to weight loss until prenatal?
From a common sense and theoretical perspective, breastfeeding is beneficial for weight loss because it consumes a lot of energy and calories. Maintaining a balanced diet after childbirth, avoiding overeating, and regularly exercising and practicing yoga can also help burn a lot of calories and achieve weight loss goals.
However, many women do not successfully lose weight after giving birth and instead continue to gain weight. This may also be due to not controlling their food intake. Most women are afraid of insufficient milk and not being able to feed their babies, so they try their best to eat and drink more during lactation, which may result in not being able to lose weight.
So what should I do to lose weight after giving birth?
1. Do not choose intense sports, it is better to do some gentle and slow exercises, such as yoga, gymnastics, etc.
2. Keep walking every day, starting with slow walking to lose weight, gradually increasing the speed and turning it into brisk walking. However, the most important thing is to persist every day in order to see results.
3. Women who exercise less should control their diet, resist the temptation of delicious food, and not indulge in small snacks. Even without exercise, it can be ensured that weight will not continue to increase.
