Secrets to effective postpartum weight loss

Eat lots of green vegetables and fruits, drink protein-rich milk, and drink enough water to purify the body to help mothers regain their slim figure after giving birth.

According to specialist doctor 1 Tran Thi Minh Nguyet, losing weight after giving birth is a problem that many women are concerned about. Most mothers feel discouraged with plans to lose weight after giving birth because this is not simple. However, difficult does not mean impossible, in fact, some people have lost weight successfully.

Doctor Nguyet believes that if applied correctly, mothers can easily regain their pre-pregnancy shape and weight without worrying about negative effects on their child's health or their own.

The most effective weight loss method is still a reasonable diet and exercise regimen to improve health as well as maintain breast milk supply for breastfeeding. Specifically, Dr. Nguyet recommends:

Apply a scientific diet

To lose weight effectively, mothers should supplement adequate nutrients, eat lots of green vegetables and fruits. A scientific diet helps both mother and baby stay healthy. You should limit foods high in fat, starch and sweets.

Salmon, sardines, and tuna contain omega-3, which is good for both mother and baby. Fish is low in fat, so mothers can add it to their weight loss menu.

Protein-rich milk is a recommended food in a weight loss regimen. You should choose unsweetened milk. Drinking milk also helps your skin glow and reduces other cravings.

Note: You need to drink enough water to purify your body, eliminate toxins and excess fat. You should drink about 2 liters a day, including filtered water, fruit juice or soup during meals...

Reasonable exercise

One of the biggest obstacles in the postpartum weight loss journey is that mothers always feel tired and lethargic with everything around them. At that time, the body feels craving for sweets and starches to supplement energy but only causes more weight gain.

Doctor Nguyet advises mothers to take a nap or sleep with their baby when they sleep. Napping will help improve fatigue, increase energy for the body, and restore muscle strength.

Yoga is one of the effective methods to help lose weight after giving birth with gentle movements, bringing a feeling of relaxation. Practicing yoga with movements suitable for postpartum mothers not only helps lose weight but also prevents stress and forgetfulness that many women suffer from.

You can practice yoga at home without going to the gym. You can start practicing from about 6 months after giving birth, doing from gentle to advanced exercises./.
