You may be wondering if your postpartum belly will ever go away, and it's taking a toll on your self-esteem.
There is no definitive answer to when you'll regain your pre-pregnancy body, as every woman's pregnancy experience and body is unique. However, we're confident you can bounce back to your former self with the right mindset, some hard work, and the right food.
In this book, we'll uncover why it's common to end up with stubborn belly fat and what you can do to get your pre-pregnancy body back sooner.
One of the most common complaints after pregnancy we hear from new moms is the dreaded "jelly belly" or "mommy pooch" that just doesn't seem to go away.
Here are some of the main reasons why your belly is looking a little bigger than you'd like after pregnancy.
There are several factors that come into play for the stubborn belly fat that accumulates as a result of pregnancy.
Humans generally put on weight around the belly when they consume more calories than they're burning. When you're pregnant, your hormone changes make it difficult to exercise. Therefore, you're also burning fewer calories per day, while eating for two.
Most women will find the significant portion of their weight gain happens in the third trimester. Those same hormones also causes you to hold on to calories and store it as fat to nourish and protect the growing baby. The extra fat is also used for nutrients for when it's time to breastfeed.
The better you eat, the better you'll feel.
There's a lot of information going around about post-pregnancy diets. Whatever you chose to do, remember but this is not the the time to restrict your calories, as you need the nutrition to keep your energy levels high and nourish your baby.
For a detailed meal plan, consult with an expert to make sure you're getting the right nutrients you need to nourish your baby and keep your energy levels high without over-consuming calories.
As a general rule, do your best to avoid processed foods, excess sugar, stimulating drinks, and of course, alcohol.
For an extra nutritional boost — that happens to be a collagen powerhouse— add homemade bone broth to your meals. Healthy fats and proteins will help you feel full for longer, so you can avoid snacking between meals.
