Although having a baby is a wonderful experience for any women, after enduring nine months of pregnancy symptoms, including 5-6 months of extra weight, it's quite natural to want to normalize your weight and regain your pre-pregnancy shape as soon as possible.

How to lose weight after pregnancy?

Here are some weight loss tips to help you lose post-pregnancy weight.

Drink lots of water and For quick weight loss,try to eat little to no junk food and sugar, choose healthy snacks instead,ie: fruits, vegetables, cheese, milk or juice (la weight loss recipes). Limit your food intake when you eat, take small to medium size servings and NEVER go back for seconds, skip dessert most of the time.

Try doing exercises to lose weight quick :Try doing exercises that target the area you need help with. If it isn't noticeable where you need help try just running and cardio and PLENTY of water and it should come off with time. Most important start a workout of some sort as soon as your doctor says its safe. Pick something you like to do running, speed walking, yoga, weight lifting, swimming, what ever you enjoy, or a combination of them. Just be sure that you do a warm up and cool down and get your heart rate up for at least 30 - 40 min. Try to work out at least 5 days out of the week, 7 if you have time, for at least an hour a day.

It can be hard to find the time with a new baby. I have found its easiest when daddy is home and can watch the baby for me while I work out and shower. I am breastfeeding which makes it even harder so I pump a bottle during the day and during work out time, I work out every night, its bottle time and daddy can feed the baby a bottle if he is hungry. You can even do some things like squats with your baby in your arms this just adds weight resistance making it more effective.

Remember it took 9 months to make a baby expect it to take 9-12 months to lose most the weight (rapid weight loss or burn fat ) and regain the muscle tone you had before you had the baby.
