 Pregnancy is a beautiful, magical, and life altering experience, and our children are our most precious gifts, but trying to lose the post-pregnancy belly is always frustrating and heartbreaking. Often our metabolism is damaged from 9 months of over-eating and our energy drained from months without real sleep, that nothing seems to work as we try to get back into our pre-baby jeans.
All we want is just to regain control of our lives, look good, and feel good again – is that so much to ask? Not all of us can bounce back like Katie Holmes or Heidi Klum and other svelte celebrity moms! So we resort to “fat burning” pills and go on crash diets that not only fail to help, but sometimes make the situation worse with rapid heartbeats, increased stress levels, early signs of aging, terrible moods swings, and more damage to our already sluggish metabolisms.
Often we feel stuck, confined in a body we no longer recognize, still wearing our horrible maternity clothes, feeling embarrassed and out of place at our children’s functions, hiding out of the sun at summer events, and sitting in the car rather than standing on the sidelines at our kid’s baseball and soccer games. All this to conceal a body we think we’re stuck with forever.
What Will They Say About Your Body Behind Your Back When You Walk By?
Do people whisper, "Have you noticed how many pounds she’s gained since she had her baby?", or "Remember how good she used to look before she had her kids?"
After all, it’s not just children who say mean and hurtful things. If you’ve ever felt the uncomfortable stare of other women as you enter a child’s birthday party, then see their eyes drop uncomfortably and turn away as you look to meet their gaze, you know what they were thinking, “How could she let her body go like that?”, or “Doesn’t she care what she looks like?”
And while you are strong enough to turn the other cheek, it’s not fair that your child should be embarrassed and teased by other kids just because you’ve had a hard time losing the leftover baby fat and getting your body back.
Don’t lose all hope and don’t you DARE settle, for what I am about to share with you can turn any Mom into a Fit Yummy Mummy!
