DIET and NUTRITION
One half of the focus of Body After Baby is on the nutrition while the other half is on physical activity. To lose that pregnancy weight, you have to focus on proper nutrition and what you’re putting into your body. Some of the top nutrition points to remember in this book are:
Eat a balance of favorable fats, complex carbohydrates and protein
Whole grains provide critical fiber and energy to keep your body functioning properly
Vegetables and fruits are nutrient rich complex carbohydrates that are abundant in fiber and water
Fish contains healthy omega-3 fats that your body needs, so eat it two to three times per week; shark, mackerel, swordfish and tilefish should be avoided because of their high mercury count
Opt for monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats and avoid saturated and trans fats when possible
When nursing you need to drink water frequently; one cup of water per hour or more is best; when not nursing drink water and eat foods that contain a high water percentage to keep yourself hydrated
EXERCISE
Body After Baby asks that you exercise every day. That doesn’t mean that as a new mom you have to try to find hours each day for your workout. This program simply asks that you spend some time each day on the Movement Focus. You will have moments and stretches that help build up the muscles you haven’t used during your pregnancy. Keller promises that the daily exercise won’t take time away from your newborn or the rest of your family. Everyday Keller asks that you do Kegel exercises to tighten up your pelvic floor. The exercises in Body After Baby are gentle yet effective, so as soon as your doctor allows it, you can proceed carefully. Warm up for five minutes prior to doing your movements and listen to your body. You will find that exercising will help you regain your strength, your energy and help you sleep better. All movements are to be done in a slow and steady manner. Taking a walk with your baby is a one form of exercise that is highly recommended.
CONCLUSION
One thing new moms can relate to is the need for a plan to get them back to their pre-pregnancy weight that doesn’t take a lot of time. Body After Baby is a great resource and guarantees results no matter how long ago you gave birth. Jackie Keller has broken this plan down so that moms don’t have to stress about their weight loss, and can easily achieve it without having to spend time away from their family. Body After Baby has worked for several celebrity clients and it can work for any mom that wants to shed weight quickly and in a healthy way.
