Are you needing to lose weight after baby's birth but just can't get motivated to get those last pounds off? With everything a Mother has going on it can be very hard to find time to get some exercise and stay on a healthy diet. Here are few tips to help you get the motivation you need to lose the after baby weight.
1) Utilize the power of positive thinking. Approach the idea to lose weight after baby with optimism and joy. As you begin to lose the after baby weight you will be not only improving your body image but also your health and self-esteem. You have nothing to lose (except some unwanted pounds) and all to gain. Optimism will help you reach your goals.
2) Begin visualizing where you want to be. Spend some time during your days thinking about what you want to look like. Keep your expectations realistic (i.e. don't add 5 inches to your height!) but picture the best possible you. It is fair to add a little youth and a little taller stature since your skin tone will improve as will your posture. Look at yourself in the mirror with optimism while visualizing a new you. Get detailed. For example, visualize flabby arms disappearing and being replaced with the soft curve of lean muscle; visualize the stomach pooch melting away into flat toned muscle, etc. These positive visualizations will help keep your motivation strong as you start dieting and exercising to reach your goals.
3) Set a realistic time-frame to lose the baby weight. Consider where you are and where you want to be and the time constraints you are working with then be realistic about how soon you can reach your visualized goal.
Losing weight after the baby is really difficult because you are so busy now with feedings, diapers, playtime, night-time care, etc. Babies/children are a lot of work. You will need to be creative in achieving your weight loss.
Create ways to squeeze exercise in throughout the day. Even if you can't work out for 30 minutes at one time, do some squats while you're watching your baby finish a cracker. Take your baby for a walk or keep a set of weights out of the baby's reach and do some curls first thing in the morning if you wake before your baby. There are tons of different ways to exercise. Do what works for you in your situation to start down your path to lose the after baby weight.
Look for a healthy and easy diet to follow. Finding one that requires very little planning and prep time will make it easier to fit it into your busy schedule. The easier it is, the more likely you are to stick with it.
Keep your optimism and visualizations strong. You will almost certainly make mistakes as we all do but just jump back on track and stay positive. Good Luck - you CAN lose weight after baby!
