Tips to lose postpartum weight?

Question

I’m 4 weeks postpartum and I have 17 pounds more to lose. I haven’t been able to lose any. I can’t exercise yet until I’ve been cleared. I’m also breastfeeding so I can’t eat at a deficit. Any tips to lose this weight?? 😫

Answer

Let your body heal first. I get that you may be uncomfortable in your new body right now, and this isn’t what you want to hear.  But give yourself some time, you just had a baby, allow yourself to just be right now. With my second I didn’t start to really lose the weight until a couple of months pp, while with my first it was pretty much right away. You can eat healthy obviously, but don’t go crazy just yet.  Congrats on your little one.

Answer

It’s still very early! Let yourself heal and give yourself some grace!
In a few weeks when your doctor clears you, start slow with walks.

Answer

Its been a month since you had your baby give yourself more time before you try to lose the weight it took 9 months to gain.

Answer

It took 9m to put on those healthy pounds. It’ll take 9m or more to take it off. Just let your body heal. You shouldn’t even be dieting at all while breastfeeding. You need 2,000 calories and then some a day to keep up with the proper nutrition for your body while breastfeeding
