Weight gain is an inevitable part of pregnancy. For one thing, you are carrying a whole new world inside your body. Its not just fat. A pregnant woman typically carries an additional 1.5 pound for the placenta, 2 to 3 pounds of increased fluid volume for you and for the baby, 2 pounds uterus, about 1 to 2 pounds because of having a full breast, 3 to 4 pounds of increased blood volume and 2 pounds of amniotic fluid. Also, the body may store about 4 to 6 pounds of maternal fat, which is intended to sustain breastfeeding and recovery after delivering the baby. On the average, a healthy pregnant woman can gain up to 25 pounds of weight during the entire pregnancy.
Weight gain is probably one of the reasons why so many women are reluctant to get pregnant. Theres actually no need to stress out on how to deal with the weight issues. Working out that added 25 pounds is easy as one-two-three. You may have heard this for a long time but it is true.
You'll find it easier to cut calories by upping your vegetables and fruits as part of your diet. In general, avoid processed foods " if it's white bread, white pasta, or refined sugar, stay clear of it. Focus on eating more greens (leafy vegetables) and more browns (whole grain pasta and bread, brown rice, oatmeal). Don't completely eliminate your fat intake; you'll need some treats to keep happy. But be careful with them. Set your goal weights and watch what you eat.
It's not just the number of calories, but also what you eat that matters. Avoid processed sugars and processed flour products; if it's sweet, or has a mild flavor, it's probably empty calories. Your body is still chasing down the hormonal surges from pregnancy, and as a result, will try to store all the carbs it can get as fat. Focus on eating whole grains and whole vegetables. Eat more fruit for snacks, rather than a Danish. Set your goal weight, look at your calories, make a meal plan and stick to it. (And yes, this means not depriving yourself.)
Now, before doing any kind of exercise, make sure you're up to it " talk to your doctor, and check your own health indicators. Do you get short of breath or dizzy, suddenly? Do you still have post-pregnancy anaemia? While none of these will keep you from exercising, they're all indicators to take it slowly at first. Build up to your exercise levels and watch the pounds come off and your energy levels increase.
No matter how busy you are, make time to exercise. Although some moms feel guilt in working out and being away from their baby, achieving physical fitness is not all about losing pregnancy fat. It is also helpful in giving you enough energy to take care of your baby, do you chores, attend to the needs of your husband and practically take care of your growing family.
Metabolic boosting is the key to losing pregnancy fat. Getting your figure back means doing shaping and toning exercises, and sticking with the nutrition plan. Breastfeeding will also hasten your body's recovery to its pre-pregnancy weight. Not only does it consume much of your pregnancy fat, it also gives your baby the best form of nourishment you can give.
