Postpartum slimming: a compulsory course for new mothers
It is the wish of every new mother to lose the weight gained during pregnancy and rebuild her beautiful figure. But postpartum weight loss needs to be cautious. Follow these suggestions to make you lose weight healthily and without burden.

When does it start?

Postpartum weight loss should be carried out after the doctor allows it. It is recommended that lactating mothers try slimming exercise 6-8 weeks after delivery, giving the body enough recovery time to ensure the supply of milk.

Weight loss progress

According to the recommendation of American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, it is safe to lose 1 pound every week during breastfeeding and will not affect the baby's growth. Non-lactating mothers can lose 1-2 kg per week.

Postpartum diet

Choose a wide range of healthy foods to ensure that there are enough vitamins and minerals in breast milk. Breast-feeding women need to consume an extra 500 calories and increase the intake of protein (equivalent to three foods rich in protein) to maintain a good milk supply. Take multivitamins to help you lose weight.

♀? Postpartum weight loss exercise

You need to get the doctor's approval before you start regular exercise. High-intensity and moderate-intensity exercise not only helps to lose weight, but also maintains the results. Expert guidance is essential for new mothers to lose weight healthily.
