I have a member of 180 pounds before pregnancy, the whole pregnancy is 10 pounds longer, after giving birth she quickly lost this 10 pounds back, coupled with the correct exercise and diet after childbirth, she lost 130 pounds in the year after giving birth, and maintained at 130 pounds all year round.
Have you found that in fact, it is very possible to return to the pre-pregnancy state after childbirth, or even better than the pre-pregnancy state, but it also varies from person to person. In fact, postpartum recovery is mainly related to weight gain during pregnancy.
You can first look at your own BMI before pregnancy, if it is a relatively thin mother, it is more reasonable to grow 30 pounds during pregnancy, normal weight (BMI in 18.5-24) is generally recommended to be about 25 pounds long, if the slightly fatter mother (BMI in 24-28) can grow 20 pounds, if the weight belongs to the obese category of mothers (BMI≥28), pregnancy weight gain should be 10-15 pounds. Gaining weight during pregnancy is reasonable, and postpartum recovery will be relatively fast.
Postpartum recovery is not good, in fact, mainly with some postpartum diet, exercise, and breastfeeding situation related, if pregnancy is a reasonable weight gain, most of the time after childbirth will be instantly reduced by about 10 pounds, because the newborn plus amniotic fluid plus placenta, plus when giving birth, some of the lost blood and body fluids are almost 10 to 12 pounds, and the increased blood volume and tissue fluid during pregnancy will be quickly discharged within two weeks through sweat, bowel and urine, and breathing after childbirth.
That's why there are spawns after giving birth, plus if you breastfeed every day, you will consume about 500 calories, but it depends on whether the mother is exclusively breastfeeding, some mothers are mixed feeding, and it is related to the calories you consume.
Some mothers may usually consume more calories, such as eating more carbs, or drinking some soup to milk, in fact, the soup contains a certain amount of fat, if excessive intake, the effect of weight loss will be slower. However, if the nutritional intake is more reasonable, coupled with some exercise to promote blood circulation, so that more blood comes to the breast, so that more energy into the milk, to nourish the child, so as to consume more of their own energy, weight loss will be easier.
If reasonable exercise plus diet, almost most mothers in the postpartum half year will return to pre-pregnancy weight, but in the postpartum diet is not recommended diet weight loss, because diet to lose weight, the first impact is breastfeeding, the second diet when the body will enter a state of famine, at this time the body will stop consuming, although the intake is less, but will find that the initial weight loss effect is obvious, but the weight loss effect is not good, and the mother will excrete a large amount of excess body fluids after childbirth, if dieting, The process of draining body fluids is not effective, which will lead to a state of edema.
Therefore, postpartum weight loss must not be dieted, not only easy to rebound, but also easy to lead to malnutrition, as well as some postpartum hair loss serious phenomenon.
