Postpartum mom, what are the prime times to lose weight?
After the baby is born, most new mothers will worry about losing excess fat, but they should not be too hasty in slimming. It usually takes about 6 weeks for postpartum organs to recover to the pre-pregnancy state, and rest should be the main way, especially for women with anemia, caesarean section or natural delivery. Six weeks to six months after delivery is the golden period of slimming. It is not suitable for bed rest and special tonic. You can follow the principle of "calorie intake is lower than calorie consumption" and refer to the following suggestions, which may get twice the result with half the effort.

3 months after delivery, increase aerobic exercise. Jogging, brisk walking or walking for 30~40 minutes three times a week can effectively consume fat. Any physical exercise should preferably include cardiovascular exercise, because it will help to enhance heart function and burn fat. Walking will be the simplest and most effective way to exercise. You can do it anytime, anywhere. Its requirements are not high, except for a pair of comfortable shoes. Walking for an hour can help burn about 500 calories. We know that if you eat 3500 calories, you can lose a pound, so we can expect that you can lose a pound by walking for about 7 hours-if you don't do anything else. Strengthen the training of core muscles.

Although some people have regained their weight, their figure is not good-looking, which shows that their core muscles are very fragile, which is also the reason for many women's postpartum low back pain. Can be improved by the following two measures:

1。 Lie in bed, raise your head and exhale, arch your back like a cat, and inhale at the same time, with your whole spine propped up as much as possible and your head drooping.

2。 Lie on your back, bend one knee, and hold your hands as close to your chest as possible for 15~20 seconds. Do it 3~5 times and then repeat it on the other side.
