Why does mother have "postpartum obesity"
Because excess fat cells are produced during pregnancy, leptin and adiponectin in the body will slow down our metabolism and fat burning. Even after delivery, the pregnant mother's body will still be in a state of accumulating fat, forcing the body to hold on to fat. Therefore, if you want to lose weight easily after delivery, you must ensure a reasonable weight gain during pregnancy, because with the delivery of the baby, we will send almost half of the increased weight out, and the other half of the fat will be used as the energy source of breast milk. Breastfeeding itself will also help pregnant mothers get rid of fat faster.
Is it difficult to lose weight after childbirth? The truth is here.
Don't miss the golden period of slimming-within six months after delivery.
According to foreign statistical reports, two or three months to six months is the best time for postpartum mothers to repair their bodies, because during this time, the body fat of new mothers is still in a free state, and it is difficult to lose fat without forming a package. And during this period of weight loss, the repair of skin elasticity will be less difficult.
Medical research also found that menstruation will return to normal two or three months after delivery, that is, endocrine and metabolism will gradually return to normal. At this time, choosing the right weight loss method will not only affect breastfeeding, but also make the milk more smooth.
However, new mothers who fail to lose weight for half a year after delivery don't have to worry. As long as you master eating skills and exercise moderately, you can still get back to your original figure.
Maintain a healthy weight loss rate.
Losing 4-8 kg a month is the speed that the body can bear, which is conducive to continuous weight loss and maintaining weight loss results.
Losing weight quickly (-2 kg per week) is easy to cause physical injury, muscle loss and slow metabolism (fat decomposition is not so fast).
For people who need to continue to lose weight, it is easy to enter the platform period if they exceed 2 kg per week; It is also difficult to maintain an ideal weight for a long time.
For people with a large weight base, it can be more than 8 kg, depending on personal circumstances.
It takes six months to 1 year to develop good living habits. Pay attention to a reasonable diet, exercise properly and control fat accumulation.
Moderate exercise
If you give birth naturally, you can get out of bed the next day after delivery. Mothers with excessive blood loss, low blood pressure and cesarean section will get out of bed on the third day after delivery.
You can do simple aerobic exercise one week after delivery, and control the time and intensity.
Do gymnastics and aerobic exercise every day after delivery 1 month to strengthen the muscles of chest, abdomen and back and reduce the accumulation of subcutaneous fat.
Choose nutrients that are beneficial to reducing fat.
B vitamins are essential nutrients for human body, which have the special function of burning fat and converting it into energy, and can promote metabolism. It can not only protect the energy and nutrition of the new mother after delivery, but also prevent the accumulation of fat, and kill two birds with one stone. It widely exists in animal liver, meat, eggs, milk, beans, vegetables, fruits and whole grains.
